Coachman celebrates 40 years with the launch of new campervan

New Veloce campervans

One of the biggest headlines for 2027 is the introduction of the all-new Veloce campervan range. Available in two layouts, the VR65 and VL65, both models are based on the Fiat Ducato panel van finished in Expedition Grey. A 140bhp engine and eight-speed automatic transmission come as standard.

The VR65 features a fixed rear rise and fall fixed bed, while the VL65 offers a flexible rear lounge that converts into a sleeping area at night.

Coachman has loaded the Veloce with premium equipment, including:

• 100Ah lithium leisure battery
• Avtex 19-inch Smart TV
• Teleco 4G Wi-Fi router
• Large overcab sunroof
• 100W flexible solar panel
• Sargent tracking system
• Black alloy wheels
• Thule 4m awning
• Underslung 20-litre Propex gas tank

Thoughtful details include an outdoor-mounted table with a magnetic mounting system, clever table storage when travelling, practical rear bed shelving and removable cup holders for rear passengers.

New rugged Sportivo 565 TRAQ

Based on the Mercedes all-wheel-drive platform, the 4,500kg motorhome combines luxury touring with genuine off-grid capability. Measuring 7.44m in length and powered by a 190bhp engine with automatic transmission, the TRAQ has been designed for owners looking to venture beyond traditional campsites. Note the habitation door is on the offside.

Key features include:

• All-wheel-drive Mercedes chassis
• Alde heating system
• Solar panel and lithium battery
• 87-litre fresh water tank and 90-litre grey water tank
• All-terrain tyres
• Extra exterior protection and lighting upgrades
• Twin rear beds set over a huge garage with shower

A new Sportivo 565 Compact model also joins the range, broadening the appeal of Coachman’s coachbuilt motorhomes.

New addition to the Travelmaster range

Coachman’s luxury motorhome range also expands for 2027 with the introduction of the new Travelmaster 565L. Based on a Mercedes chassis, this four-berth motorhome features an L-shaped lounge, revised kitchen layout, curved Cashmere upper lockers, domestic-style worktops and a 150Ah lithium battery.

New Lusso III caravan

Acadia caravan range receives a major refresh

Coachman’s popular Acadia caravan range also receives a significant refresh for 2027.

Every Acadia model is now eight feet wide, helping create a more spacious interior. Three new transverse island bed layouts join the line-up:

• Acadia 545 Xtra
• Acadia 575 Xtra – reviewed here
• Acadia 655 Xtra

The updated range benefits from new exterior styling with five-spoke alloy wheels and contemporary graphics, while inside you’ll find new Primavera wood finishes, marble-effect worktops and splashbacks, matt black fittings and a new lift-up worktop extension in Marble Stone.

There’s also a strong focus on security and technology. Every Acadia now comes with a Scorpion S7-rated tracking system with the first year’s subscription included. The tracker could also help owners qualify for a discount on their Caravan Guard insurance policy.
