BENIMAR UNDER 7m
FIRST INNOVATIONS FOR THE 2027 SEASON
In the 2027 season, Benimar will introduce numerous innovations. The focus of this season will primarily be on shorter layouts. In general, the range of vans is narrowing, while the segment of shorter semi-integrated and compact motorhomes is strengthening. The so-called “Compact” line at Benimar can be found under the name Yrteo. This is a narrower version of a semi-integrated motorhome, known at Adria as the Compact. The vehicle width is only 212 cm (instead of the standard 230 cm), which brings it significantly closer to the width of a classic van.
The Yrteo line will be completely redesigned for the 2027 season. The main idea of compact motorhomes is to approach the dimensions of a van (e.g., the Y842 model with a length of 6.39 m), while offering significantly more comfort (larger bathroom, more space around the table), more storage space (large luggage compartment – garage), and enabling comfortable use even in winter (sleeping for four people on fixed or quickly prepared drop-down beds). The base of the Yrteo range remains the increasingly popular Ford.
ALL layouts in the Yrteo range will feature:
Electric drop-down bed for 2 people in the front!
Large 140-liter compressor refrigerator
Widened entrance door
Standing height will increase from 1.97 m to 2.11 m
New redesigned motorhome cap
Y862 (6.99 m)
- Extended bed on one side, measuring a full 2.12 m in length
- “Face to face” layout
- Separate rear beds with easy access or the option to connect into one large bed
- Large luggage compartment with 90×117 cm openings on both sides
- New swivel bathroom
- Webasto diesel heating
Y841 (6.39 m)
- Almost identical in dimensions to the long version of a van (width, length)
- Allows comfortable sleeping for 4 people inside the motorhome, making it more suitable for winter than, for example, a pop-up van solution.
- More space at the table
- Transverse rear bed 136 x 200 cm
- Large luggage compartment with 64.5×112 cm openings on both sides
- Larger, new swivel bathroom
- Webasto diesel heating
In addition to the redesigned, already known layouts, two completely new layouts based on the T481 model will be introduced in the Yrteo line. Several new shorter layouts that were missing last season will also be available in the Mileo and Tessoro lines.
MILEO RANGE – Semi-integrated Fiat
The Mileo line will receive a new layout, the M262. This is a shortened version of the M268 model. A very functional layout that, at a length of under 7 m, offers almost everything its “bigger brother” has. It could also be described as a slightly wider version of the new Y862. Compared to the latter, here we get a little extra width, Truma Diesel instead of Webasto, and a Fiat base instead of Ford. It also includes all the extras found in the Mileo range, such as an extractor hood, entrance door with central locking, etc.
M262 (6.96 m)
- Extended 2.12 m bed on one side
- “Face to face” layout
- Separate rear beds with easy access or the option to connect into one large bed
- Large luggage compartment with 90×117 cm openings on both sides
- New swivel bathroom
- Truma Diesel heating
TESSORO RANGE – Semi-integrated Ford
The Tessoro line will also be enriched by two very interesting shorter layouts.
T443 (6.99 m)
The T443 model represents an upgrade of the T442 model, which has been missing for the last two years. It is a classic layout under 7 m with a transverse bed in the rear, which will now feature enlarged openings to the luggage compartment (height of 132 cm on both sides).
- Very comfortable for 4 people, registered for 5.
- Very spacious bathroom
- Extremely large luggage compartment that easily fits electric bikes or a scooter; opening height of 132 cm!
- Webasto diesel heating
T461 (6.99 m)
The brand-new T461 model will also be presented, representing the first true shortened version of our far best-selling model, the M263 (this time in the Tessoro line). At a length of under 7 m, it offers almost everything its larger cousin, the M263, provides.
- Registered for 5 people with comfortable sleeping for 5 people at a length of under 7 m!
- Front drop-down bed for two people.
- Separate rear beds with easy access or the option to connect into one large bed
- Large storage compartment, with opening heights of 117 cm on both sides.
- Very functional swivel bathroom
- Large compressor fridge
- Truma diesel heating
AMPHITRYON RANGE – Integrated Fiat
We will also receive the first integrated motorhome under 6 m, modeled after the T481.
A981 (5.99 m)
It hardly gets any shorter. At a length of under 6 m, it offers comfortable living for two people. An optional bed for two additional people can be set up in the dining area (the table lowers electrically). The only trade-off to consider is the absence of a standard large storage compartment.
- Very spacious living area – larger than in some 7.4 m long motorhomes
- Very large kitchen – larger than in most other motorhomes
- Very spacious toilet and shower
- The front bed drops down into the cab, allowing the use of the table even when the bed is in use
- Large compressor fridge
- Truma diesel heating
That is all for now. Other updates will follow at the end of May, when we attend the presentation of the new season in Spain. The first demonstration models are expected to arrive at our location before the end of summer. 🙂
