Motorhomes and RVs
from Hymer

Finding the perfect Hymer motorhome really comes down to your travel habits, space requirements, and what you want out of a vehicle.

To keep things simple, we divide our range into Class B camper vans, Class B+ motorhomes, and Class A motorhomes. Ask yourself the following questions to help you decide:

• Do you want maximum manoeuvrability and a highly flexible vehicle? Class B camper vans use the original bodywork of a panel van, making them the most compact vehicles in the Hymer lineup. They're perfect for couples, active travellers, and anyone who regularly visits cities or wants to use their van as a daily driver. With their compact footprint, camper vans give you incredible flexibility – ideal if you value agility and fuss-free travel.
• Are you looking for the sweet spot between driving comfort, living space, and everyday usability? Class B+ motorhomes pair the cab of the base vehicle (like a Mercedes-Benz or Fiat) with a high-quality Hymer body. You keep the driving dynamics and perks of the base vehicle while gaining a beautifully spacious living area. Sitting close to the windscreen and side doors gives you excellent visibility on the road, and getting under the bonnet for maintenance is as easy as ever.
• Do you want ultimate living comfort for longer trips? Class A motorhomes offer the most interior space in the Hymer portfolio. We build the cab and living area as one continuous unit to create a seamless, harmonious design. The result is a wonderfully generous living space that makes the most of every inch, giving you plenty of room to move around.
• Do you frequently travel in the colder months, or just want to ignore the weather outside? Because of their unified construction, Class A motorhomes have a natural edge when it comes to insulation and climate control. They also handle our heating systems incredibly efficiently, making them a brilliant choice for long-haul trips and winter camping.

Ultimately, the right choice comes down to your biggest priority: compactness, everyday usability, maximum living comfort, or year-round performance.

Hymer motorhomes stand out thanks to our patented body construction, bespoke chassis solutions, and relentless testing procedures – not to mention smart digital networking and incredibly high standards for interior comfort. We’ve developed many of these technologies and features specifically for life on the road.

Key unique features include

• PUAL 2.0 body: Our patented, highly durable body uses closed-pore PU foam. This gives you fantastic stability, torsional rigidity, and outstanding insulation, while cutting out thermal bridges and keeping moisture at bay for good.
• SLC chassis: The Hymer Super Light Chassis (SLC) pairs a completely flat underbody with a low centre of gravity. The payoff? Better aerodynamics, improved driving stability, and a smoother ride. Its fully insulated and heated double floor – up to 36 cm (14 in) high – safely tucks your plumbing and tanks away from the frost, all while freeing up massive amounts of storage space. Large rear garages also make it a breeze to pack bulky gear. You'll find the SLC chassis on model series like the Hymer B-Class ModernComfort and Hymer B-Class MasterLine.
• Tested quality and winter-proofing: Before a new model ever hits the road, it goes through the wringer. This includes cold-chamber testing for winter-proofing, plus punishing real-world dynamic tests like rough road tracks, slaloms, and evasive manoeuvres.
• Premium interior: Ergonomic layouts, hard-wearing furniture, premium materials, smart lighting, and luxurious sleep systems come together to create a true home from home. We build our furniture to last, using metal runners, soft-close hinges, and secure screwed-and-dowelled joints. Special noise-reduction tape keeps irritating rattles quiet while you're driving. You'll sleep soundly on breathable multi-zone cold foam mattresses, and sit comfortably on hard-wearing upholstery that looks great even after years of use. In the bathroom, silicone-free joints and multiple drains ensure everything works flawlessly – even when the vehicle flexes on the move.
• Hymer Connect: This smart ecosystem lets you monitor and control vital vehicle and living area features right from your phone or the central display. Check your fill levels, adjust the climate, tweak the heating, or dim the lights from the sofa. Automated scenarios take the hassle out of travel, while handy checklists, service access, and a built-in dealer search give you peace of mind on the road. Plus, with retrofittable components and smart sensors, the system is completely future-proof.
• Premium standard features and equipment: Many comfort, safety, and self-sufficiency features that other manufacturers charge extra for are simply standard on a Hymer.

Naturally, the exact specifications vary by series. But every Hymer shares the same goal: combining innovative engineering, exceptional build quality, year-round usability, and unmatched travel comfort.

Depending on the layout and configuration, most Hymer motorhomes comfortably sleep and seat 2 to 4 people. You can even upgrade selected models to accommodate up to 5 seats (with seat belts) and berths. Just keep in mind that your legally permitted passenger count will depend on your chosen features and equipment, as well as the vehicle's technically permissible maximum laden mass.

Depending on your travel group, the following options are available:

• 2 people: Models like the Hymer Venture S are strictly tailored for two. They offer an incredibly generous sense of space and uncompromised living comfort.
• Up to 4 people: Most of our motorhomes offer up to four seats (with seat belts) and berths, making them a fantastic choice for couples, friends, and families.
• Up to 5 people: Selected layouts in the Hymer GT-S, Hymer B-Class ModernComfort, and Hymer B-Class MasterLine series offer an optional fifth seat and berth.
• Family-friendly layouts: If you're bringing the kids, look for models with a high payload, massive storage, and flexible living spaces – like the layouts found in the Hymer GT-S series.

And if you prefer a smaller footprint, we also offer plenty of camper vans with up to four berths.

The best way to truly experience a Hymer motorhome – and take it for a spin – is to visit an authorised Hymer dealer. You can step inside different models, feel the build quality for yourself, and (subject to availability) arrange a test drive.

You have the following options:

• Dealers and demo vehicles: Many of our authorised dealers keep a variety of series and layouts on hand as demo vehicles. Just pop onto the dealer search on the Hymer website to find your nearest partner and book a viewing or test drive.
• Trade fairs and in-house exhibitions: Events like the Caravan Salon Düsseldorf, CMT Stuttgart, or your local dealer's open weekends are perfect for comparing models side-by-side and getting expert advice. You can often arrange a test drive right there or book one for later.
• Vehicle hire: Want to see how a motorhome actually performs on a holiday? Try hiring one through partners like rent easy. Spending a few days on the road is the perfect way to test the driving dynamics, bed comfort, and everyday practicality in the real world.

Getting a hands-on feel for the space can make all the difference, especially when you're trying to pin down the perfect layout or vehicle size.

Yes, absolutely. You can hire Hymer motorhomes through the rent easy network, as well as directly from selected Hymer dealers. It's a brilliant way to test different models and layouts on an actual trip before you commit to buying.

The following hire options are available:

• Hire via McRent: You can book a variety of Hymer motorhomes at numerous locations across the rent easy network. The available vehicle classes and layouts will vary depending on where and when you book.
• Hire via Hymer dealers: Many authorised Hymer dealers also run their own hire fleets. Just contact your local dealer directly to check availability, hire periods, and terms.
• Finding dealers with hire services: Use the dealer search on the Hymer website and filter specifically for partners offering hire vehicles.

Hiring is simply the best way to see how the layout, size, and overall Hymer experience fit into your travel lifestyle.

For Hymer motorhomes with a technically permissible maximum laden mass of up to 3.5 t, a standard Category B driving licence is generally all you need in Germany. If that mass is over 3.5 t up to and including 7.5 t, you'll need a Category C1 licence. Since many of our motorhomes are available in different weight variants, the licence you need ultimately depends on your chosen series, layout, and equipment options. The deciding factor is always the technically permissible maximum laden mass printed on your vehicle documents. Please note that driving licence regulations vary internationally, so always check the specific legal requirements for your destination before travelling abroad.

Yes, every Hymer motorhome is winter-proof as standard, rigorously tested to the strict DIN EN 1646-1 Level 3 standard. We achieve this year-round performance by combining top-tier body construction with highly effective insulation, frost-protected plumbing, and clever vehicle design tailored for extreme climates.

Here is how we guarantee your comfort all year round:

• Our PUAL body technology uses highly insulating, closed-pore PU foam to keep the heat in and ensure incredible structural stability. In fact, the thermal insulation in our motorhomes is equivalent to a solid brick wall around 80 cm (31 in) thick.
• We test for winter-proofing to DIN EN 1646-1, Level 3. That means putting our motorhomes through punishing cold-stress tests (like at Truma in Munich and Alde in Sweden) to prove they can maintain a cosy interior even in freezing conditions.
• Insulated and heated fresh water and waste water tanks, plus frost-protected plumbing, come as standard.
• Many series feature heated exterior lockers and basement compartments to protect your temperature-sensitive gear.
• Double-glazed framed windows drastically reduce heat loss and stop condensation in its tracks.
• Smart heating and ventilation concepts distribute warmth evenly throughout the entire vehicle.
• Specialized adhesives and connection techniques eliminate thermal bridges and keep the body perfectly sealed.
• Depending on the series, you'll also get premium features like an insulated double floor, which acts as a fantastic frost-shield for your tanks, pipes, and storage.

So whether you're chasing the summer sun or heading out for a snowy winter trip, your Hymer will keep you warm, comfortable, and protected.

It depends heavily on your model, equipment, and how you use your motorhome, but you can typically expect anywhere from 2 to 5 days of self-sufficiency. If you spec the vehicle with the right self-sufficiency equipment and travel in the summer, you can easily stretch that up to 10 days without needing to plug in or fill up.

The main things that dictate your off-grid time are:

• Energy supply: Big battery banks, solar panels, and inverters give you serious independence from the grid. Plus, if you move around regularly, the alternator will top up your leisure battery while you drive.
• Water and hygiene: The size of your fresh water and waste water tanks, optional water filters, and toilet capacity decide how long you can avoid the disposal station. Adding a second toilet cassette or choosing a fixed-tank toilet system can massively extend your stay.
• Efficient appliances: Things like diesel heating or a compressor fridge are incredibly efficient, helping you squeeze every drop of energy out of your setup.
• Travel habits: The size of your group, how often you shower, how much you cook, and your heating needs will drain your water, power, and toilet capacity at different rates.
• The seasons: In the summer, solar panels can shoulder most of your energy needs. In the winter, however, you get less solar yield and run the heating much more, which significantly shortens your self-sufficiency time.

As a rough guide, many Hymer owners with the right setup report camping off-grid for up to 10 days in the summer. Just bear in mind that this drops considerably when the winter weather sets in.

The payload of your motorhome depends on a wide range of variables, so there is no simple number that can be named. as  It changes based on your chosen model, the vehicle's technically permissible maximum laden mass, its actual mass, the optional extras you select, the number of passenger seats, and legal requirements like minimum payload calculations.

Because calculating your exact weight reserves is quite complex, we break it down fully in our detailed guide on weight-related data.

For a quick and highly accurate estimate, jump into the Hymer configurator. It automatically recalculates your weight as you add optional extras and passengers, giving you a realistic picture of your payload before you buy.

If you want to double-check your dream configuration, your local Hymer dealer is always there to help. Once you own the vehicle, we highly recommend taking your fully loaded motorhome to a non-automatic weighbridge before every big trip. You need to ensure that, with all passengers on board, you aren't exceeding the technically permissible maximum laden mass or the maximum mass on either axle.

Weight limits are something we focus on during the design phase. By using advanced lightweight materials and smart engineering, we build vehicles that give you the biggest possible weight reserves and maximum flexibility on the road.

Out of the factory, Hymer motorhomes range from 2.79 to 3.07 m (about 9 to 10 ft ) in height, and sit anywhere from under 7 m to nearly 9 m long ( 23 ft to 29 ft 6 in). The "perfect" size is entirely personal. It depends on where you want to camp, the clearance heights on your route, how much headroom you want, and your driving confidence. Vehicle width matters too – sitting between 2.16 and 2.35 m (7 ft 1 in to 7 ft 9 in) across our range, it changes both the interior space and how easily you can navigate tight country lanes.

Here is a quick guide to finding the right fit:

• Under 7 m (23 ft) long: Brilliant for travellers who prioritise agility and stress-free parking. You'll breeze through narrow streets, handle sharp corners, squeeze onto smaller motorhome pitches, and navigate towns with ease.
• 7 to 8 m (23 to 26 ft) long: The goldilocks zone. This class gives you a fantastic balance of living comfort and storage space without making the vehicle feel clumsy on the road. It's the perfect choice for extended holidays.
• Over 8 m (26 ft) long: The ultimate mobile home. Ideal if you need massive amounts of space or plan on spending months away. Just remember that you'll need to plan your routes more carefully, and you might face higher fees for campsites, ferries, and toll roads.
• Vehicle height: A taller vehicle often means more storage, bigger overhead lockers, and room for a double floor. However, you'll need to watch out for low bridges, car parks, and ferry limits. Keep in mind that adding roof-mounted air conditioning, solar panels, satellite dishes, or opting for four-wheel drive will increase your total height.
• Interior headroom: High ceilings make a massive difference to how comfortable a motorhome feels, especially on rainy days or if you're travelling with a group. Taller travellers will obviously appreciate being able to stand up straight.
• Clearance restrictions: The size of your van dictates where you can go. Old towns, mountain passes, and rural lanes can be tricky for larger vehicles. Even our most compact motorhomes generally can't fit into standard multi-storey or height-restricted car parks, which normally cap out at 2.20 m (7 ft 3 in).
• Try before you buy: You can’t beat stepping inside the vehicle or taking a test drive. You’ll quickly realise what size best fits your lifestyle. Often, a slightly smaller vehicle proves vastly more practical for touring, while the big Class A models shine when you park up for weeks at a time.

At the moment, Hymer does not offer any motorhomes or camper vans with alternative drive technologies in series production. However, the Erwin Hymer Group has been deeply involved in researching alternative drives and sustainable mobility for years. Our development teams are focused on lightweight construction, better aerodynamics, reducing driving emissions, and next-generation drivetrains.

You can read all about our sustainable mobility projects over on the Erwin Hymer Group website. As for when you'll see fully electric or alternative motorhomes widely available? That depends on several moving parts, including leaps in battery technology, driving ranges, public charging infrastructure, and government regulations. Because of this, we can't give a firm date on when these models will hit the market.
