Jandelsbrunn – Under the motto „Together we make the difference‟, Knaus Tabbert is presenting the new products for the 2026 model year. This year’s presentation at the Jandelsbrunn site not only stands for new leisure vehicles and concepts, but also for a new look at what the company is all about: Cooperation, responsibility and the will to draw new strength from challenges.
The past year has shown that change is not always convenient – but it is necessary if a company is to survive and grow in the long term. Knaus Tabbert has used this process to realign itself: With a revised product philosophy, leaner structures and a clear focus on efficiency and customer benefits.
"Together we make the difference‟ – this motto is more than just a guiding principle. It describes the path that Knaus Tabbert has taken: in close dialogue with employees, dealers and customers. Many ideas and feedback from the market have been directly incorporated into the development of the new models.
Not everything has been reinvented – but many things have been improved, simplified or consistently developed further. At the same time: Innovation remains an integral part of the Knaus Tabbert DNA. In 2026, the company will continue to bring innovative technical solutions, new comfort approaches and future‐proof vehicle concepts to the road – but with more clarity, pragmatism and a focus on the essentials.
With the 2026 model year, Knaus Tabbert is committed to a common path towards a modern, customer‐centred and sustainable future of mobile travel. Because real change comes about where it is shaped together.
With the new BOXTIME, KNAUS presents a well thought‐out camper van that combines lightweight construction, functionality and contemporary comfort. The series is characterised by its automotive and dynamic appearance, its high‐quality and detailed workmanship and its special thermal and acoustic insulation – ideal for modern caravanning requirements. The basis for this is the newly developed Light Weight Technology, which utilises high‐performance, modern materials. It ensures good insulation values, high stability and temperature resistance – and is recyclable.
With its Light Weight Technology, KNAUS shows what modern caravanning looks like today – lighter, quieter, more durable. It combines the highest standards of design with maximum functionality, reduces weight and improves comfort. The result is a living space that becomes an experience. More space, more possibilities: Despite the comparable volume, the slimmer wall units create a space gain of around 70 mm for more freedom of movement between the kitchen and bathroom. Less weight, full power: The targeted use of light‐weight materials makes the vehicle much lighter. For example, the BOXTIME 600 MQ saves a whole 60kg compared to a conventional, comparable camper van. This improves driving behaviour, reduces fuel consumption and increases the possible payload. Rethinking sustainability: The material used is 100% recyclable – for intelligent, responsible technology that conserves resources. The closed‐cell material also absorbs shocks effectively, protects furniture and structure and noticeably reduces vibrations – for greater safety and durability. Thermal insulation is also significantly improved. The ceiling and floor are each manufactured in one piece and adapt precisely to the vehicle structure – for uniform insulation throughout the interior. The Boxtime offers excellent acoustics: The wall panelling not only insulates against heat and cold, but also reduces external noise by up to –3 dB(A) – for greater peace and comfort.
In addition to a well thought‐out room concept and an automotive‐inspired design, the model offers a new bathroom construction: The stylish bathroom with swivelling wall combines design and function perfectly – and is compact, practical and completely shower curtain‐free. This makes the sanitary area a real feel‐good place when travelling. Open‐plan living areas with plenty of space, intelligent storage solutions and a well thought‐out kitchen make the mobile home versatile and inviting. With comprehensive LED lighting and numerous light sources, the BOXTIME offers both bright light and atmospheric ambient lighting. Clean lines and the EasySpace bow extension with panoramic window in the front as standard create an interior that combines space, design and comfort. Sophisticated, slim wall units provide more freedom of movement and an open feeling of space – with generous storage space thanks to innovative materials. The BOXTIME is available in four layouts: 540 MQ, 600 MQ, 630 ME and 630 MX. The latter impresses with an electric lifting bed in the rear as standard, which combines maximum space utilisation and Sleeping Comfort. The Lifting bed is available as an option for the other models. The electrically adjustable lifting bed can be adjusted to the desired height at the touch of a button and remains fully usable in any position. The standard comfort bed system with EvoPore HRC mattress and bed frame including high‐quality disc springs also ensures dreamlike lying comfort. With the BOXTIME, KNAUS is opening a new chapter in camper vans – innovative, technological and ecological.
With the BOXLIFE, KNAUS presents an all‐round further developed camper van model that takes functionality, design and comfort to a new level. Five layouts – 540 MQ, 600 MQ, 600 DQ, 600 ME and 630 ME – make the BOXLIFE the most model‐diverse series in the KNAUS camper van segment and offer the right solution for a wide range of holiday needs.
Technical highlights such as the standard diesel heating and the innovative slide‐out bench emphasise the high standards of comfort and suitability for everyday use. At the same time, the BOXLIFE marks the ideal introduction to the world of KNAUS camper vans – for all those who want to experience brand character from the very first model. Particularly noteworthy is the optional rear lifting bed, which redefines space and Sleeping Comfort in the BOXLIFE. It creates flexible space solutions and enables optimum utilisation of the living space – whether for luggage, bicycles or relaxed sleeping. The BOXLIFE also impresses in the bathroom area: With an innovative swivelling wall, the bathroom offers a real shower experience, a generous mirror surface, a modern washbasin, integrated ambient lighting and a shower tray in elegant anthracite – all without a shower curtain. Compact, clever and fully equipped: The kitchen in the BOXLIFE makes optimum use of the available space – with a 2‐burner hob and a generous compressor refrigerator, which can optionally hold up to 138 litres. The sophisticated interior design – timeless, modern and stylish – is complemented by harmonious lighting architecture, high‐quality materials and clear lines. Efficient insulation with soft‐touch panelling, high‐tech roof and insulated structure ensure a pleasant indoor climate all year round. This makes the BOXLIFE an enabler for all those who appreciate clever details, innovative technology and a comfortable living experience when travelling.
More equipment, more comfort – that’s what the BOXLIFE offers as PLATINUM SELECTION. In series production, it impresses with a comprehensive range of features that make your holiday even more enjoyable: These include the practical insect screen door, an electric access step, the sophisticated EasySpace bow extension and a rain gutter above the sliding door. The integrated mattress topper provides even more Sleeping Comfort. The insulated waste water tank can also be used in cooler temperatures without any problems, numerous sockets offer maximum flexibility – and with the awning fitted as standard, every parking space becomes a feel‐good zone.
The exclusive NATURAL STONE special upholstery brings style and elegance to the interior. The seating area can be used flexibly: The table can be enlarged in no time at all, the cab seats can be swivelled and are perfectly integrated visually. Anyone looking for additional storage space or particularly flexible sleeping options can equip the BOXLIFE PLATINUM SELECTION with an optional rear drop‐down bed – a clever solution for anyone who wants to combine maximum everyday practicality with maximum comfort.
The KNAUS L!VE I stands for comfort with well thought‐out features. Ideal for anyone who values space, comfort and a stylish ambience when travelling. The large panoramic windscreen ensures a light‐flooded interior and a unique driving experience. The driver and front passenger seats are optimally integrated into the living area and create an open, communicative feeling of space. The standard Lifting bed offers additional sleeping places without restricting the living space during the day.
The interior of the L!VE I has now been comprehensively revised and its design and functionality noticeably upgraded. The newly designed entrance furniture looks modern and tidy. The optimised upholstery geometry ensures even more Seating Comfort and a high‐quality appearance in the living area. The revised storage box rear ventilation also contributes to the improved room climate and the longevity of the furniture. In combination with the stylish colour scheme and high‐quality workmanship, this creates a fresh, inviting interior with high living value. The L!VE I in three layout variants: 650 MEG, 700 MEG and 900 LEG – all offer comfortable single bed solutions and spacious living areas.
The KNAUS L!VE WAVE combines the dynamics of a semi‐integrated motorhome with the advantages of a standard Lifting bed. It therefore offers more flexibility and more Sleeping Comfort and is the perfect travelling companion for anyone who wants to stay spontaneous and comfortable while on the move. Its striking design, sporty and elegant body and the 650 MG, 650 MF, 700 MEG and 700 DX layouts make the L!VE WAVE is a real all‐rounder. The integrated lifting bed blends discreetly into the vehicle roof during the day and offers fully‐fledged additional sleeping places if required – without restricting the living space during the day. The interior of the L!VE WAVE offers a cosy atmosphere, high‐quality materials and clever storage space solutions.
New to the programme is the 650 MEG layout – with comfortable single beds in the rear, a spacious living area and the standard lifting bed above the seating area. This means that the 650 MEG offers four full sleeping places and a good balance between living comfort and functionality. Ideal for anyone who wants to combine compact external dimensions with maximum interior space utilisation.
With the SÜDWIND BLACK SELECTION, KNAUS offers a special edition that combines design and comfort in a particularly attractive way. Style is not an extra here, but an integral part of the standard equipment: A striking look with a harmoniously coordinated interior make the BLACK SELECTION a real eye‐catcher. Open lines of sight, bright furniture décor and well‐placed LED lighting create a particularly spacious feel. The stylish ambience is complemented by lavish furnishings and a large selection of layouts. The BLACK SELECTION portfolio is being expanded to include three additional layouts – 580 UF, 580 UK and 650 UDF – for even more variety and customised design options.
The BLACK SELECTION is also technically impressive across the board. The standard AL‐KO AAA Premium Brake, which stands for shorter braking distances and increased stability, ensures greater safety on the road. The elegant drawbar cover complements the high‐quality external appearance and also protects against dirt and weather. Introduction to the vehicle is via the KNAUS PREMIUM Cabin Doors, which not only impresses with its appearance, but also with its functionality – including an integrated insect screen door. In the interior, the atmospheric ambient lighting sets modern living accents. Also cleverly thought out: the trundle bed function for single beds, which creates a generous lying surface in no time at all – for maximum flexibility in the sleeping area. And with the Combi outdoor socket for power and TV, the outdoor experience can be just as convenient as the TV entertainment inside the caravan. The standard KNAUS Bluetooth sound system provides the right acoustics, enabling wireless sound enjoyment.
BLACK SELECTION also means that the entire body is painted in the exclusive Campovolo colour. The edge strips are finished in elegant black, while the doors, flaps and elements such as the refrigerator grille and sockets are in modern anthracite. A white version with black edge mouldings is also available on request.
The KNAUS SPORT impresses with attractive layouts, a modern appearance and extended standard equipment that combines practical details and proven Quality. These include the self‐adjusting KNOTT. ANS brake and a jockey wheel with integrated drawbar load indicator. Wheel trims in KNAUS design and the high‐quality KNAUS PREMIUM Cabin Doors set visual and functional accents. Additional comfort is provided by the insect screen door, a large roof bonnet (96 x 65 cm) and the vent window in the toilet compartment – both with integrated insect and blackout protection. A 25‐litre waste water tank in a rollable design is a useful addition to the equipment and makes the KNAUS SPORT a reliable companion for everyday camping.
With the CaraSuite, WEINSBERG offers a semi‐integrated motorhome that is characterised by a particularly generous feeling of space and clever ways of using the existing 650 MF, 650 MG and 700 ME layouts.

In the bathroom, an elegant marble look sets stylish accents and emphasises the modern and homely overall impression.

New in the exterior package: The smooth side walls in white, in combination with the special stickers, ensure clear, modern lines and emphasise the contemporary design of the vehicle.
