UNPARALLELED VERSATILITY

The GP1 isn’t confined to the customary camper van label. Featuring a pair of sliding doors and detachable individual seats, the Westfalia GP1 effortlessly morphs from a 4 to 6-passenger MPV into a capacious van. Whether you’re shuttling youngsters from school, handling chores, or embarking on a weekend escapade, the Westfalia GP1 is primed for the mission.

FORD TRANSIT

The GP1 transcends mere flexibility, exhibiting power and efficiency as well. The Premium iteration touts four-wheel drive, 170 horsepower, and an automatic gearbox, while the Classic variant embraces a manual transmission and front-wheel drive. Both versions are anchored in the Ford Transit Custom, part of the Titanium Line, ensuring integration of top-notch Ford technology and features.

FORM AND LUXURY

The GP1’s aesthetics rival its performance. Sporting a roof that can be raised single-handedly, the GP1 unveils a slumber zone for two when elevated, measuring 2.00 meters in length and 1.27 meters in width. Beyond the seats, a sleeping module converts into two extra restful spots on the ground floor, measuring 1.90 x 1.12 meters.

ENCOMPASSING A CUISINE

Yet, the GP1’s appeal extends beyond sleeping comfort. It boasts a modern wall-mounted cabinet housing a compact kitchenette, complete with a stove, water system featuring a sink, and reservoirs for fresh and wastewater (25 liters/15 liters). A 25-liter compressor refrigerator is also stashed in a drawer, suitable for use beyond the confines of the vehicle.

The GP1 is supplied with two 95 Ah AGM household batteries that can be recharged via an external 230-volt connection. Multiple USB ports for electronic gadgets are also on hand, ensuring perpetual power availability, regardless of your location.

A DUO OF EDITIONS

The GP1 arrives in a pair of flavors – Premium and Classic. The Premium variant comes with a price tag of €77,725*, while the Classic rendition can be acquired for €63,890*. Undeniably, these costs are not modest, but the price-quality ratio for both models proves appealing, taking into account the offered versatility and functionality.
