Hymer brings the dream of all off-road campers

In 2019, motorhome specialist Hymer made a name for itself with an off-road concept study showing what the future of campers could look like. Less than three years later, the Venture S is now going into series production. The result: a super-cool off-road camper for the most discerning tastes.

As an exclusively equipped off-roader for two people, the Venture S promises freedom without compromise. With its compact vehicle length, narrow vehicle body and striking off-road look, the Venture S creates a whole new vehicle category. Equipped with the powerful drive head of the Mercedes-Benz Sprinter as well as all-wheel drive and studded tires as standard, all roads are open to travelers in the Venture S. The eye-catching color scheme in stone grey or spring blue metallic adorns both the body and cab and, in combination with design decals in honeycomb look, ensures an unmistakable look.

With a completely new layout concept, Hymer has managed to revolutionize the living experience of modern travel. A completely new dimension of van life opens up on two floors, which meets the highest demands in terms of comfort, design and functionality.

Living

The highlight in the lounge-like rear area of the Venture S: the real glass window surrounds all three sides of the comfortable seating area and offers an open view of nature as well as a daylight-flooded get-together. The interplay with the felt-look wall cladding creates a harmonious sense of space. When the adjustable table with solid bamboo top is not in use, it can simply be folded up and stowed away under the bench. When the weather is nice, the open tailgate of the Venture S serves as a room extension and opens up a private sun deck.

Sleeping

The Venture S also leaves nothing to be desired when it comes to sleeping quality. Thanks to the powerful compressor, the sleeping roof is inflated in less than three minutes and protects against noise, light and temperature differences during sleep thanks to an innovative two-chamber system. The firmness of the mattress can even be individually adjusted via an app. The comfort staircase in the Venture S makes it easy to climb and is also safe to walk on in the dark thanks to the illuminated steps. At the same time, compartments integrated into the steps provide additional storage space. Clever storage and charging options for smartphones, e-books, etc. round off the concept of the relaxation floor.

Cooking

Cooking in the Venture S takes place in a modern, fully equipped kitchenette with elegant, matt black fittings. The centerpiece is the multifunctional wall, on which the storage space can be individually designed with hooks, shelves and containers. A drawer with a shelf for a chopping board extends the kitchen worktop. All supplies and utensils for culinary catering on board can be stored in a practical storage box system. But there is more behind the modern look: Hymer uses innovative materials in the Venture S to ensure an optimum combination of function, appearance and weight. The metal surface of the worktop is surprisingly soft to the touch and has a matt finish. It is also resistant to fingerprints and scratches. The tiled backsplash is a stone powder-based solid surface composite that is virtually indistinguishable from conventional tiles in terms of look and feel.

Showers

Thanks to a smart space utilization concept, the Venture S has two washrooms in one. The WC can be extended with an optional ceramic toilet, washbasin, mirror and built-in cabinets in just one easy step and transformed into an even larger wet room with a floor-level shower. With the look and feel of real slate. It is also robust and easy to clean. A 120-liter fresh water tank allows for long showers and travel away from infrastructure.

Working

The Venture S offers a home office for those who not only want to travel self-sufficiently but also work on the move. The work table integrated into the side wall behind the front passenger seat can be set up as an individual workstation in just a few seconds, including the flexible skylight, and enables focused work anywhere. Three 115-watt solar panels on the roof of the Venture S as well as six strategically positioned 230-volt sockets and eight USB ports in the vehicle ensure that the batteries are fully charged. In combination with the Hymer Smart Battery System 2.0 and 320 Ah lithium batteries as well as an inverter as standard, travelers and workers can be self-sufficient in terms of energy for up to ten days on the road.

Multimedia & on-board electronics

Equipped with a mobile Sonos Smart Speaker, which can be flexibly attached to the wall panels, the Venture S plays the right playlist even in the most remote locations. An optional projector including screen and wall mounting is available as an equipment option for the first time in a Hymer vehicle. Pendant lights and reading lights can also be fitted in various places in the vehicle, allowing you to create the right lighting mood for any place of retreat. A sophisticated lighting concept with multi-level ambient lighting including plinth lighting gives the interior a spacious and generous feel. The vehicle is also compatible with Hymer Connect and components can be controlled centrally via smartphone or the built-in 7-inch touch display.

The Venture S is available to order now, with prices ranging from 225,000 euros for the solidly equipped basic version to 252,000 euros for the full version including all the bells and whistles.
