Volkswagen California Camper Van

The next iteration of Volkswagen’s iconic California camper van is undergoing tests. This model is founded on the gas-driven Multivan, available in markets outside the United States.

Although the new California will not be available for sale in the U.S., some features might find their way into a similar ID.California. This new design is being developed using the platform of the ID.Buzz electric van, which is set to initiate sales in the U.S. in the following year as a 2025 model.

Overview of Volkswagen ID.4

Scheduled to commence production next year in Hanover, Germany, the prototype of the California van has been spotted.

A concept that previews the camper van will be revealed later this week at a caravan exhibition in Düsseldorf, Germany. This concept will include unique features such as a tablet screen that allows control of many of the van’s camping-oriented functions.

The prototype prominently showcases a pop-up roof, a classic trait of VW’s California vans. The vehicle’s stretched body, a feature borrowed from the Multivan, is measured at 203.7 inches in length.

Though the interior remains unseen, the California vans are renowned for providing all the necessities for prolonged camping experiences. Alongside the roof, they are equipped with essential utilities like a cooker, refrigerator, and two beds, each sufficient for two people.

Historically, the California model was constructed on the foundation of VW’s mid-size T-series of vans, tracing back to the original Microbus. In recent times, Volkswagen has also introduced California versions of its smaller Caddy van and the larger Crafter van, with the latter being named the Grand California. The upcoming inclusion of ID.Buzz to this lineup is fitting, as it represents the spiritual successor to the original Microbus, or the first in the T-Series vans.

This sounds like a dream van for campers, especially the pop-up roof and the inbuilt cooker & fridge. Would love to see it in the US too.

How cool is that, a tablet screen for controlling camping features! But what if the tablet malfunctions, would be good to have some manual controls.
