    Is the Dethleffs Globebus ACTIVE a practical compact motorhome?

    The Dethleffs Globebus ACTIVE is a slimline coachbuilt motorhome designed for manoeuvrability, measuring 2.2 metres in width and 5.99 metres in length. It offers between 2 and 4 berths with a significant 715kg payload, making it suitable for those who require the agility of a van conversion with the construction of a coachbuilt vehicle.

    • Compact 2.2 metre body width for easier navigation.
    • Payload capacity of 715kg.
    • Available in Transverse Bed, Twin Single Beds, and Over-cab Drop-down Bed layouts.
    • MTPLM of 3500kg and GVW of 3499kg.
    • Length of 5.99 metres and height of 2.81 metres.

    Worth knowing: Interior storage may be limited for long-term full-time occupancy. The slim width results in a narrower central aisle than standard coachbuilt models.

    Buying a Dethleffs Globebus ACTIVE

    Who it suits

    • • Couples or small families seeking a 5.99 metre vehicle that is easy to park.
    • • Drivers navigating narrow roads who benefit from the 2.2 metre slimline body.
    • • Tourists requiring a high payload of 715kg for gear and luggage.

    Reasons to consider it

    • • German engineering with a focus on lightweight, aerodynamic design.
    • • Heated garage space provided for secure storage of bikes and bulky equipment.
    • • LED ambient lighting and premium interior finishes included in the ACTIVE trim.

    What to check

    • • Verify the exact berth count for your chosen unit, as this ranges from 2 to 4.
    • • Inspect the ACTIVE edition exterior decals and sporty styling for condition.
    • • Test the rotatable pilot seats to ensure smooth integration with the lounge.
    • • Check the operation of the 3-burner hob in the Gourmet kitchen.

    Worth knowing: Confirm the specific engine output as multiple Fiat MultiJet options exist. Check the specific layout as configurations include transverse, twin, or drop-down beds.

    Compare the Dethleffs Globebus ACTIVE with similar models

    Dethleffs Globebus ACTIVE43500 kg5.99 m£45,000 to £78,000
    Benimar BENIVAN 144 P43500 kg5.99 m£48,000 to £66,000
    Auto-Sleepers Broadway Fb43500 kg6.30 m£45,000 to £85,000

    The Dethleffs Globebus ACTIVE occupies a specific niche, providing a 2.2 metre width that is narrower than many traditional coachbuilts like the Auto-Sleepers Broadway Fb, yet it maintains a 3500kg MTPLM. While its 5.99 metre length is shared with the Benimar Benivan 144 P and Auto-Trail F Line F62, the Dethleffs distinguishes itself with a 715kg payload and specific ACTIVE edition styling. Buyers must weigh the benefits of its slim dimensions against the narrower internal aisle compared to wider alternatives.

    Worth knowing: Specifications and prices can vary by model year, trim and optional equipment.

    Dethleffs Globebus ACTIVE Ownership Insights

    • Utilise the 715kg payload carefully to maintain the 3500kg MTPLM limit.
    • Make use of the heated garage to prevent moisture build-up on stored outdoor gear.
    • Take advantage of the 2.2 metre width when planning routes through mountainous or narrow passes.

    Common mistakes to avoid

    • • Assuming all models have 4 berths; some configurations are limited to 2.
    • • Overlooking the narrow aisle width when considering long-term living comfort.

    Worth knowing: Payload figures can vary based on optional equipment and trim levels.
