'day, fellow road-trippers and campers! Rev up your engines because Volkswagen has just dropped some exciting news: the 2025 Volkswagen California is coming to Australia, and it's bringing a whole new level of adventure to our shores.
So, what's the buzz all about? Well, for starters, this latest iteration of the iconic camper van is not just your average ride. It's packing some serious innovation under the hood, including a plug-in hybrid drivetrain that's set to make waves in the world of eco-friendly travel. While it's already making its debut in Europe this June, we won't have to wait too long before it graces our Aussie showrooms.
Based on the T7 Multivan passenger van, which is set to roll into Australia in the latter half of 2024, the 2025 Volkswagen California is set to steal the spotlight with its sleek design and versatile features. And with the current diesel-only model having gained popularity since its 2020 introduction, the anticipation for this new release is palpable.
But let's talk specifics, shall we? This beauty is not just a camper van; it's a home on wheels. Clocking in at 5173mm long and 1941mm wide, it's larger than its predecessors, offering ample space for all your road-trip essentials. Plus, with five model grades to choose from – Beach, Beach Tour, Beach Camper, Coast, and Ocean – you're spoiled for choice when it comes to finding the perfect fit for your adventures.
One of the standout features of the 2025 California is its revamped interior. Say goodbye to cramped quarters and hello to comfort and convenience. With sliding passenger doors on both sides of the vehicle, getting in and out is a breeze. And let's not forget about the pop-up roof, which not only expands the interior height but also comes equipped with a mosquito net and windows for those balmy summer nights under the stars.
Inside, you'll find individual rear seats that can be repositioned to suit your needs, whether you're hauling gear or kicking back for a roadside picnic. And speaking of picnics, the redesigned kitchenette is a game-changer, offering a more streamlined layout without sacrificing functionality. Plus, with a fold-out bed and provision for a refrigerator, you'll be living the van life in style.
Now, let's talk turkey – or rather, price. While the current diesel models are priced between $93,790 and $103,790 before on-road costs, the exact pricing for the 2025 plug-in hybrid variant is yet to be confirmed. However, given the added features and eco-friendly technology, we're expecting it to be worth every penny.
So, there you have it, folks – the 2025 Volkswagen California is gearing up to be the ultimate road-trip companion. With its spacious interior, innovative features, and eco-conscious design, it's set to revolutionize the way we explore the great outdoors. Keep your eyes peeled for its arrival in Australian showrooms, and get ready to hit the road in style!
