A slimline coachbuilt on the MAN TGE chassis.
The Knaus Vansation is a compact motorhome built on the MAN TGE chassis, designed for agility with a 2.2m width and a 6.89m length. It features fixed twin beds, a rear garage, and a 3,500kg MTPLM, making it suitable for drivers with a standard UK licence. The model utilises FoldXpand rear wall technology to optimise interior space and includes high-specification equipment such as a satellite system and Smart TV as standard.
- MAN TGE chassis with advanced driver assistance systems.
- Slimline 2.2m exterior width for improved manoeuvrability.
- FoldXpand rear wall technology to maximise internal length.
- Large rear garage with dual door access for gear storage.
- Standard Oyster 60 Premium Twin satellite and 27-inch Smart TV.
Worth knowing: The 2.2m width may feel more restrictive in the lounge than full-width coachbuilt models. Payload capacity of 445kg can be reduced if heavy optional extras are added. Pricing between 65000 and 88000 reflects the premium MAN base vehicle.
Buying a Knaus Vansation
Who it suits
- • Couples seeking a slimline motorhome for navigating narrow roads.
- • Drivers who prefer the handling and safety systems of the MAN TGE chassis.
- • Tourists requiring a 3,500kg MTPLM vehicle with a 445kg payload.
Reasons to consider it
- • High-quality German engineering and aerodynamic design for fuel efficiency.
- • Comprehensive standard equipment including satellite and television systems.
- • Fixed twin bed layout with a compact washroom and swivel cab seats.
What to check
- • Verify the operation of the Truma Combi heating system for four-season use.
- • Inspect the dual door access on the rear garage for ease of loading your specific gear.
- • Check the 'Vansation' exclusive upholstery and ambient lighting for condition.
Worth knowing: Confirm the exact payload for specific units, as the 445kg figure may decrease with dealer-fitted options. Evaluate the 2.2m width in the lounge area to ensure it meets your comfort requirements.
Compare the Knaus Vansation with similar models
| Model | Berths | Maximum weight | Length | Typical price |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Knaus Vansation | 3 | 3500 kg | 6.89 m | £65,000 to £88,000 |
| Auto-Trail EXCEL 675 B | 3 | 3500 kg | 6.75 m | £62,000 to £78,000 |
| Auto-Sleepers Kemerton Xl | 3 | 3500 kg | 6.97 m | £55,000 to £98,000 |
The Knaus Vansation occupies a specific niche, offering a 2.2m slimline width on a MAN TGE chassis, whereas alternatives like the Swift Voyager 564 or Rapido 854F provide 4 berths within similar length constraints. While the Vansation focuses on driving dynamics and high standard specifications for 2 to 3 people, the Auto-Sleepers Kemerton XL offers a different layout approach at a similar 3,500kg MTPLM. The choice between these models depends on whether the buyer prioritises the MAN base vehicle and slim exterior over the additional berths found in the Swift or Rapido models.
Worth knowing: Specifications and prices can vary by model year, trim and optional equipment.
Ownership and Maintenance
- Utilise the rear garage for heavy items to maintain stability, noting the dual door access.
- Use the Motorhome Weight Checker to ensure your licence covers the 3,500kg MTPLM.
- Regularly check the FoldXpand rear wall seals as part of your annual maintenance.
Common mistakes to avoid
- • Overloading the 445kg payload by installing heavy aftermarket accessories.
- • Assuming all 3,500kg motorhomes have the same exterior width; this model is narrower at 2.2m.
Worth knowing: Always confirm the specific MTPLM and payload on the vehicle plate before loading.
Alternatives to the Knaus Vansation
The Auto-Trail EXCEL 675 B offers a similar 3,500kg MTPLM and 3 berths but with a shorter 6.75m length for those prioritising a smaller footprint.
Auto-Sleepers Kemerton XlA similarly sized model worth comparing on layout, weight and price.
Swift Trekker XlFor buyers requiring 4 berths within a 3,500kg limit, the Swift Trekker XL provides additional sleeping capacity at a 6.75m length.
