Living, interior design & equipment
The KNAUS TOURER VAN impresses with a well thought-out space concept that perfectly combines comfort and functionality. Thanks to modern materials, clever solutions and high-quality workmanship, the range offers a pleasant living experience when traveling.
Living area
The living room is characterized by a bright, friendly design and intelligent use of space. High-quality upholstery ensures cozy seating comfort, while atmospheric LED lighting rounds off the ambience. Depending on the layout, the face-to-face seating area in the TOURER VAN 500 LT allows up to six people to sit together in a particularly sociable atmosphere.
Kitchen
The motorhome kitchen in the KNAUS TOURER VAN combines functionality and convenience in a small space. The well-organized kitchen block offers a space-saving compact kitchen with everything you need for mobile catering. A powerful 2-burner gas hob allows you to cook on the go, while a robust work surface offers enough space to prepare meals. The integrated sink ensures easy cleaning. The side-mounted compressor fridge is particularly practical and can be opened both from the inside and outside - ideal for short distances and quick refreshments. Thanks to well thought-out drawers and storage compartments, cooking utensils and supplies are always to hand. Plenty of storage space ensures that everything can be neatly stowed away.
Bathroom
Maximum comfort in the smallest of spaces: the Xpand bathroom impresses with its flexible use thanks to its sliding wall element. This creates either a spacious shower cubicle with a height-adjustable shower up to 1.90 m or a functional washbasin with mirror surface. The firmly closing shower wall ensures that the rest of the room remains dry. The shower area can be pulled upwards in a few simple steps, with the folding wall folding out backwards into the bed area. The washbasin can be moved to the side, allowing the toilet to be used even when the shower is in use. High-quality materials and modern fittings guarantee maximum comfort despite the compact dimensions. For the TOURER VAN 500 LT model, a fixed bathroom with a practical swivel wall is available, which can be positioned as required - for a spacious shower cubicle or a functional wash area.
Storage space
Despite the compact dimensions of the TOURER VAN, the model offers a variety of storage space solutions. The well thought-out rear garage in the 500 MQ makes it possible to transport larger items of luggage or sports equipment. In addition, overhead lockers, storage compartments under the bench seats and other clever storage compartments throughout the vehicle provide enough space to store all travel items neatly.
