DESIGN
With a body-coloured pop-up aluminium roof, a two-seat rear folding bench which converts into a two-person lower bed plus loads of room up front and space to spare for luggage in the back, the flexible California Beach is holiday-ready.
Below, there’s everything you need for a great camper van holiday. A lower bed with sleeping mat and storage compartment, fabric black-out blinds for a great night’s sleep, a folding table which attaches effortlessly to the sliding door, two folding chairs - stored neatly in the tailgate, and a second 12v battery.
The California Ocean offers that little bit more luxury you deserve such as climatronic three-zone automatic air conditioning, luxury cut pile floor mats and sliding side windows with fly screens. Two maintenance free auxiliary batteries with cut-off relay for power the living area.
EFFICIENCY & PERFORMANCE
Wherever you’re going, the California Ocean has real power and performance. Choose from the 150ps 2.0 TDI or 204PS 2.0BiTDI, both available in 6-speed manual or 7-speed, dual-clutch, direct-shift gearbox.
Wherever you’re travelling, the California Beach has an engine to perform.
Choose from the 102ps or 150ps variants of the 2.0 TDI, with the latter available in a 7-speed, dual-clutch, direct-shift gearbox to give you real power and performance.
SAFETY
The California marries practicality with safety and style throughout. The sliding floor rail system makes set-up simple and with plastic entrance step and tailgate sill protection and step illumination with California logo for cab doors and side sliding door, the California is accessible in the dark as it is in daytime.
The two-seat rear bench also accommodates ISOFIX child seat mountings and a storage box to its left, plus there’s a 230v supply for re-charging vehicle batteries.
As always from Volkswagen safety is a top priority. The Ocean is designed to drive like a car, with agile handling, real stability and easy manoeuvrability. Standard safety specification includes ABS, electronic brake-force distribution, electronic stabilisation programme, traction control plus passenger and driver side and front curtain airbags.
Introducing the All-New California
The new California comes with standard sliding doors on both the left and right sides of the vehicle. The expansive interior seamlessly blends with the areas flanking the sliding doors, forming a summer sanctuary immersed in nature.
This model marks a milestone in the Volkswagen Commercial Vehicles range as the first camper van to feature a plug-in hybrid drive coupled with an all-wheel drive system. Control over camper functionalities is facilitated through a display within the living space, the in-car infotainment app, or the dedicated California smartphone app. Signature California features, including the pop-up roof and meticulously designed interior, remain unchanged, ensuring a comprehensive camping experience.
Available to order this summer.
