About the Adria Compact Max DL

The Adria Compact Max DL is a premium motorhome built on the robust Volkswagen Crafter chassis, specifically engineered for adventurers who refuse to compromise on luxury despite seeking a narrower, more agile vehicle. Measuring just 2.12 meters in width, the 'Slim-fit' exterior allows for effortless navigation through tight country lanes and historic European villages, while the interior feels remarkably spacious thanks to Adria's signature panoramic window and contemporary 'Sandy White' interior design. It is the perfect bridge between a large campervan and a full-sized coachbuilt motorhome.

Inside, the DL layout features the highly sought-after twin longitudinal beds at the rear, which can be converted into a large double, alongside a spacious face-to-face lounge that creates an open-plan social atmosphere. The kitchen is intelligently equipped with a large fridge and high-quality appliances, while the clever swivel-wall bathroom maximizes every inch of available space. Whether you are a couple seeking a long-range touring vehicle or a small family needing extra flexibility, the Compact Max DL offers a refined base for your travels.
