Is the Hymer Camper Van a practical choice for touring?
The Hymer Camper Van is a compact van conversion designed for agility, measuring 5.41m in length and 2.05m in width. It supports a payload of 700kg and is available in 2 to 4 berth configurations. With layouts featuring fixed rear beds or pop-top roofs, it balances everyday drivability with the build standards expected of the Hymer brand.
- Compact 5.41m exterior length for easier parking and navigation.
- Flexible sleeping for 2 to 4 people depending on the specific configuration.
- High payload capacity of 700kg within a 3500kg MTPLM.
- Multiple layout options including Rear Lounge and Pop-Top Roof Bed.
Worth knowing: Internal living space and washroom facilities are more restricted than in larger motorhomes. The price range of 40000 to 90000 sits at a higher point than many van conversion competitors.
Buying a Hymer Camper Van: What you need to know
Who it suits
- Couples or small families who require a vehicle that can double as everyday transport.
- Drivers who prefer a 3500kg MTPLM to avoid the licensing restrictions of heavier vehicles.
- Adventurers prioritising a high 700kg payload for equipment and supplies.
Reasons to consider it
- Legendary Hymer build quality and insulation standards in a van conversion format.
- Ease of manoeuvrability due to the 5.41m length and 2.6m height.
- Versatile layout types that maximise the smaller footprint.
What to check
- Confirm the specific layout as options include Rear Lounge, Fixed Rear Bed, and Pop-Top Roof Bed.
- Verify the berth count for your specific unit, as these range from 2 to 4.
- Check the engine specifications and trim levels, as these influence the final price within the 40000 to 90000 range.
Worth knowing: The compact 2.05m width means washroom facilities are often smaller than those found in coachbuilt models. Spontaneous travellers should note that while agile, the interior space is limited for extended stationary periods.

While it shares the 5.41m length and 3500kg MTPLM of competitors like the Dreamer Fun and Elddis Whirlwind GTV 560, it is distinguished by its 700kg payload and Hymer's specific construction standards. It offers a more compact alternative to the 5.99m WildAx Constellation for those prioritising parking ease over maximum internal floor area.
Worth knowing: Specifications and prices can vary by model year, trim and optional equipment.
Tips for Hymer Camper Van owners
- Utilise the 700kg payload to carry essential gear without exceeding the 3500kg MTPLM.
- If using the Pop-Top Roof Bed layout, ensure the roof mechanism is clear of debris before lowering.
- Take advantage of the 5.41m length to access standard parking spaces that larger motorhomes cannot use.
Common mistakes to avoid
- Assuming all models have 4 berths; some configurations are strictly 2 berth.
- Overlooking the 2.6m height when navigating areas with low clearance.
Worth knowing: Payload capacity of 700kg is generous but must be managed if adding heavy optional extras.
