VW Grand California 680

  • 4 years ago
Production of Volkswagen Commercial Vehicles’ Crafter-based motorhome, the Grand California, began in spring; and now the 1000th model has rolled off the production line in Września (Poland).

It is being delivered to a customer in Germany who opted for a Grand California 600 in two-tone ‘Candy White / Cherry Red’. The landmark camper is also equipped with an additional bunk bed, including panoramic skylight, above the half dinette. Further optional features of the 1000th Grand California include the Discover Media radio/navigation system and a solar panel on the front part of the roof. The camper is powered by the standard 130 kW / 177 PS turbo diesel (TDI) engine, mated to the standard 8-speed automatic transmission.

The camper is available as the Grand California 600 (6.0 metres long, sideways bed at the rear) and Grand California 680 (6.8 metres long, lengthways bed at the rear). In addition to a fully equipped kitchen, it features a wetroom (toilet, shower and wash basin), practical details such as an outside light above the sliding door, a connection for an outside shower (including hose and shower head), an electrically powered step that extends out of the sliding door, mosquito nets in the sliding door and the prop-open camper windows, blackout roller blinds, up to six USB interfaces, four 230V plug sockets and Cross Wind Assist. Also fitted as standard: a digital operating panel in the living space, via which all key campervan functions are centrally controlled. The information that the touchscreen display unit provides includes the drinking and waste water levels, the additional battery’s charge level and the Wi-Fi status. Functions controlled via the screen include the heating and air conditioning, the infotainment system, interior lighting, the mode for the step and the Wi-Fi.
