We love the new VW Camper! Oddly enough, it's called the "California," even though it won't be sold in America. Come on, VW! What gives? Sell that beauty over here!

My old man bought one of the original versions of these round about 1980. Most parents don't think too much about their kids when making vehicle purchase decisions, beyond the usual safety issues. But this made the best god damn playhouse a kid could ever hope for, even when it's just sitting in your driveway. Some of my best, earliest childhood memories involved one of these. Apparently they're coming out with an EV version in 2025. Sure hope they make it available stateside.

I grew up in a 1973 VW camper van. Orange. Four-speed manual. It was so primitive compared to this new version, but I loved it. Our sink was behind the front passenger seat, beside the sliding side door. We pumped a little handle, and the sink went, "Squirt, squirt, squirt." A giant tent snapped onto the back.

I wish I'd read that "not in America" first! I was nostalgically remembering (and comparing) all the features my 1980 Vanagon/westie had to this and I'm not surprised they improved and added extra niceties! Why no remarks about engine power, clearance and ease/comfort of the ride? It has to get one where they're going! Love the improvements you showed with the window curtains and pop-top; old bed design looks more comfortable though!

The canvas hammock over the front seats is a must have on the 1st gen thru 79' Westfalia's. makes a great catch all for laundry, or sleep on it for kids up to 5 feet. My wife and I lived in our 64' VW Westfalia for a summer. I put a 25 gallon fresh water tank painted black on the front roof rack, and salvaged a 12v Automatic-ON pump and faucet system from an RV at the junk yard. We used an, easy to attach to the rain gutter, Hula-hoop for a shower curtain rack, and even made it so the shower faucet on/off knobs and hand held sprayer could attach to a piece of hard wood that stayed anchored to the metal roof with strong magnets. That way we could direct the water straight down from the center of the hula-hoop, or use it as a hand held sprayer. I experimented with a heat exchanger from the muffler to heat the water while we drove, by coiling copper tubing around the muffler and cycling the fresh water from the holding tank through the coils and back into the tank using the 12 volt pump. Even though it was well insulated and there was ample pressure I could regulate at any level, I never could get it to work very well.

I really enjoyed watching this, Jason. I had a 1966 Westfalia Camper and I took it camping many times. While the icebox, sink, and stove were not appealing for me to use, it was all there. It had a small pop top, but it was just for standing up and ventilation. The closet and fold out bed were in good working order, as were the two interior lights in the rear living section. What was really useful were the Jalousie windows. There were two on the passenger side double doors, and three on the driver's side. They could open and provide good cross ventilation, even when it was raining. Mine also had a gasoline heater, which I had painstakingly rebuilt from several lots of brand new parts that I found hiding at a dealer in New York City. But overall, this T6 looks pretty capable. Thanks for the review!

Provocateur - not exactly. Our import rules and regulations mean it would be very difficult if not impossible to import it without waiting 25 years at which point you can probably import it and register it. You may be able to import it now but good luck registering it here. Reselling probably wouldn't be as easy as with other cars either.

It also may not pass diesel emission standards. It was rated at 44 mpg before the VW emissions scandal. I heard making the engine meet the emissions standards took away about 10% of the power and mileage. Still amazing power and mpgs. But when will we see the first electric mini-camper?

in 2018 I rented a Toyota Hiace van in Japan for three weeks. It had all the same stuff as this VW, down to the electric roof mechanism, the table, chairs, fridge, sink, heater, shower, etc. It also had a microwave and a WiFi hotspot! It was a reliable, reasonably priced, awesome machine. Service it anywhere.

Oh, how I miss my 1971 VW Campmobile. Ordered it at a VW dealer in the States, picked it up at the factory in Wiedenbrück-well, the Westphalia factory where the Kombi conversions were done-and drove it around Europe for three months. Shipped it back to the States and enjoyed it here for a number of years. Part of me would buy one today-if it were available here. Probably not as easy or possible to do that today. Certainly not buyable at the 1971 price of US$ 3,200. Oh well, at least I still have those three months of memories of camping and exploring in my VW Campmobile.

If their market research indicated a demand for these they would either import them or tool up a US VW plant to make them here. Not many people would buy them. For traveling on paved roads there are much better options for the price. They are useless for off road so adventurers wouldn't buy them. Maybe college kids for spring break but at 80K they couldn't afford it.

1:26 Westfalia is still in business. They still make VW campers (next to Fiat, Ford, Mercedes,...). The difference is that VW formerly outsourced making the transporters into campers to Westfalia, but now VW does it in-house, as they saw how well the VW conversions by Westfalia were received.
