New VW California T7 Camper: The TRUTH!

This is the new Volkswagen California!

Mat’s got his hands on the T7 edition of the California, and he’s about to see how it’s evolved over the previous T6 generation.

One key change over the previous California is that the new car is based on a car platform, compared to a van platform used for the T6! This change is clear from the outside, with the front end of the California looking relatively similar to the ID Buzz. It comes with a full-length light bar and modern headlights, while along the side, the body panels continue the similarity to a car’s design.

But on the inside is where you’ll find the most changes. The kitchen unit has evolved, now allowing someone to enter the California from either side! There’s a single gas burner, a fridge, and a number of power outlets. The back seats can move forward, back, or be removed altogether, and the front seats can turn around, too. The roof still expands to reveal a bed, and the rear seats can fold down to create a second bed as well.

In terms of engines, there are two to choose from. There’s a 2-litre diesel that produces 150hp, or a 2-litre turbo petrol that produces 204hp.

The entry-level T7 California costs around £63,000, while the range-topping car that we have here costs around £82,000. So, is it worth it, or should you just stick with the cheaper T6 instead? Stick with Mat to see for yourself!
