Is the Knaus Traveller a practical family motorhome?
The Knaus Traveller is a robust, German-engineered motorhome designed for families, offering between 4 and 6 berths. Built on Fiat Ducato or Renault Master chassis, it features a signature over-cab alcove and a double-floor design for all-season use. With a 700kg payload and a 3850kg MTPLM, it prioritises storage and durability for long-distance touring.
- Berth options ranging from 4 to 6 occupants.
- Typical external dimensions of 6.85m length and 3.15m height.
- Substantial 700kg payload capacity for heavy touring gear.
- Layouts including Over-cab Alcove, Rear Transverse Bed, and Bunk Beds.
- Market price range spanning from 18000 to 65000.
Worth knowing: The 3850kg MTPLM requires a C1 category driving licence in the UK. Height of 3.15m requires careful route planning for low bridges.
Buying a Knaus Traveller
Who it suits
- • Large families needing up to 6 berths and dedicated bunk bed or transverse bed areas.
- • Winter tourers who require high-performance insulation and a double-floor construction.
- • Drivers with a C1 licence who value a high 700kg payload for extended trips.
Reasons to consider it
- • Exceptional build quality and high-quality cabinetry ensure long-term durability.
- • The over-cab design maximises daytime living space by keeping beds separate.
- • A 3850kg MTPLM allows for a generous 700kg payload for equipment and supplies.
What to check
- • Confirm the specific chassis type, as models use either Fiat Ducato or Renault Master.
- • Verify the service history of the heating system and under-floor storage seals.
- • Check the operation of the 3-burner hob and fridge in the ergonomic kitchen.
- • Inspect the rear garage doors for smooth operation on family-focused layouts.
Worth knowing: The taller 3.15m profile increases wind sensitivity and fuel use compared to low-profile models. Access to the over-cab sleeping area is via a ladder, which may not suit all users.
Compare the Knaus Traveller with similar models
| Model | Berths | Maximum weight | Length | Typical price |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Knaus Traveller | 6 | 3850 kg | 6.85 m | £18,000 to £65,000 |
| Bessacarr 496 | 6 | 3850 kg | 7.20 m | £28,000 to £55,000 |
| Bailey Autograph | 6 | 3850 kg | 7.41 m | £45,000 to £95,000 |
The Knaus Traveller sits in a competitive bracket alongside the Bailey Autograph and Bessacarr 496. While the Knaus is noted for its 3.15m height and 700kg payload, the Bailey Autograph offers a longer 7.41m body at the same 3850kg weight. Conversely, the Elddis Whirlwind GT 150 and Swift Sundance provide 6 berth layouts within a 3500kg limit, making them accessible to more drivers but with potentially lower payloads than the Knaus.
Worth knowing: Specifications and prices can vary by model year, trim and optional equipment.
Knaus Traveller Ownership Insights
- Utilise the under-floor compartments for heavy items to maintain a stable centre of gravity.
- Make use of the dual-side access in the rear garage to organise outdoor furniture and gear.
- Regularly inspect the LED ambient lighting and integrated kitchen hobs for consistent performance.
Common mistakes to avoid
- • Underestimating the 3.15m height when navigating restricted rural routes or fuel stations.
- • Exceeding the 3500kg standard licence limit without holding the required C1 category.
Worth knowing: Always verify the MTPLM on the vehicle plate before loading to the 700kg limit.
Alternatives to the Knaus Traveller
The Bessacarr 496 offers a 6 berth capacity and shares the 3850kg MTPLM of the Knaus, but provides a longer 7.2m body for those requiring more interior floor space.
Bailey AutographA similarly sized model worth comparing on layout, weight and price.
Auto-Trail ScoutFor buyers seeking a 6 berth layout with a lower 3500kg MTPLM to suit standard driving licences, the Auto-Trail Scout is a shorter 6.8m alternative.
