For us, the term “living room on wheels” is not just an empty
phrase. HYMER motorhomes deliver exactly what our customers
expect from us: excellent quality, a high level of comfort, superior
furnishings and optimal safety − and it all comes as standard! After
all, we want you to enjoy all the comforts you have at home when
you’re on holiday too. That’s why – all rational considerations aside
– buying the right motorhome is always an emotional decision too,
based on your gut feeling. Erwin Hymer was well aware of this when
he launched the first series-produced motorhome in 1971.
And it’s still true today! Across all classes, from the compact
semi-integrated to the premium integrated models, HYMER does
its utmost not just to satisfy its customers’ wishes and expectations,
but to surpass them. As a pioneer in this sector, this is part of our
self-image and a debt we owe to the brand’s long tradition. Why
not see for yourself and discover the advantages of our wide range
of models. This brochure will help you do just that.

The term “Hymermobil” enters the German language with the introduction of the 550.
In the completely rede-signed B-Class, the roof is now harmoniously shaped and the roof corners have almost completely disappeared.
Multi-award-winner: In 1981, Europe’s leading motorhome
and caravan manufacturer began production of the legendary
B-Class, probably the most well known integrated model of the
HYMER brand. To date, more than 55,000 vehicles of this class
have been built, thus accumulating an impressive wealth of expe-
rience in the integrated sector. That’s one reason why various
B-Class models have won first place a grand total of 29 times in
the renowned promobil readers’ poll over the last 33 years. This
“Motorhome of the Year” award can be clearly interpreted as a
unique seal of quality.
The B-Class acquires a AL-KO deep frame with a double floor without increasing in height.
To mark the 25th anniver-sary of the best-selling B-Class, the special edition “Legend 25” is launched in an elegant silver finish.
All-new: cab, chassis and weight category. Presenting the new B-Class on a Fiat Ducato chassis.
The B-Class celebrates its 33rd birthday and triumphs as a PremiumLine with a completely new interior.
The Ford-based Hymermobils are added to the B-Class, and the Fiat Ducato a year later.
The B-Class is voted “Motorhome of the Year” for the first time in the promobil magazine readers’ poll, followed by 28 further wins.
Alfons Hymer begins produc-tion of agricultural vehicles.
Erich Bachem (“ERIBA”) and Erwin Hymer build the orig-inal “Troll”, the first caravan.

We have been winning the hearts of motorhome fans with our
HYMER B-Class models since 1981. Over 55,000 vehicles deliv-
ered from this model range alone speak for themselves. It can be
described without exaggeration as a premium product which truly
deserves the name PremiumLine. With completely new layout
concepts, a new interior design, a smart exterior and many high-
lights as standard, we present a motorhome which does justice
to HYMER’s traditional reputation for maximum quality and value
retention. The PremiumLine guarantees optimum driving comfort
thanks to its lightweight AL-KO frame, cruise control, Goldschmitt
spiral springs for the front axle and double floor concept. A larger
fresh and grey water tank capacity, left and right garage doors, a
70 cm-wide entrance door and many further details round off
the superb overall package.

Luxuriously equipped with a sink and draining board in superior solid-surface material, pull-out shelf for kitchen appliances and window covering. Lots of storage space thanks to a new corner kitchen design with six drawers and ad-ditional kitchen shelf.

Spiral spring for front axle
In vehicles with a high front axle load, the front axle springs are often overloaded, which can cause the vehicle to sink. With Goldschmitt- spiral springs for the front axle, the vehicle front is propped up while increasing the axle load.
Optimal leak-tightness
The vehicle roof is made from robust alumini-um and has no longitudinal seams for water to penetrate through from above. The GRP coat-ing provides additional weather and hail pro-tection, preventing mechanical damage to the roof surface.
Lasting protection from below
The indestructible GRP underbody makes the vehicles practically immune to weather dam-age. Stone damage, grit and dirt are likewise kept at bay – a solid foundation for the entire service life of your motorhome.
Smart driving and travel aids plus comprehensive safety equipment provide the basis for an enjoyable, trouble-free holiday trip. With the new HYMER PremiumLine, you know you’re in good hands.
Optimal loading convenience
The HYMER PremiumLine has two large garage doors on the left and right. The garage doors are equipped with high-quality gas pressure springs which hold the doors open reliably for loading and unloading.
Tailor-made undercarriage
The specially developed AL-KO lightweight frame with independent suspension forms the perfect basis for the motorhome body. Its op-timally positioned wheelbase ensures equal weight distribution, even when the vehicle is fully loaded.
Further standard highlights:

Multi-purpose double floor
Underfloor heating, a frost-protected service cavity and an additional heated storage com-partment are all-inclusive thanks to the proven, 12.5 cm thick multi-purpose double floor with hot-air nozzles between the upper floor surface (3 cm) and underfloor (3.5 cm).
Great view, no thermal bridges
The high-quality Seitz S7 framed windows are equipped with double acrylic glazing for opti-mal thermal insulation. The powder-coated al-uminium frame is lightweight and sturdy and has an insulating layer to protect against ther-mal bridging. Also included are Remiflair inte-rior roller blinds.
Easy access
The average motorhome door is 55 cm wide. The HYMER PremiumLine door, by contrast, is a full 70 cm wide. This extra width, together with the step, makes it much easier to enter and exit the vehicle.
Pleasant climate
The automatic front AC unit with pollen filter in the central console of the dashboard ensures a pleasant temperature while driving. It can be switched on both automatically and manually.
Comfort cruise control
Comfortable and safe at a steady, controlled speed – courtesy of the onboard cruise con-trol system.
Handy multi-taskers
The height and angle-adjustable swivel lounge seats in the cab are fully upholstered in the same fabric as the living area. The high seat-ing comfort of the Aguti Ergoflex pilot seats is ideal for settling down to watch TV and for relaxed driving.
Economical endurance runner
The 96 kW / 130 hp Fiat Multijet II engine is the epitome of sustained economical driving pleas-ure thanks to its low average consumption. The nippy and robust 4-cylinder turbo-diesel en-gine complies with the Euro 5+ and EEV exhaust emissions standards.

Dual function
The shower and wash area are separate in the bathroom of the B 704 PremiumLine. Thanks to a fixed door, this room can also be used as a dressing room.

Comfy seating
The seat heating for both seats in the cab area is a boon in colder regions for relaxed driving. As an added benefit, the backrest is heated at the same time. The seat heaters have a handy individual electronic control system.
Electric fold-down bed
The 1.50 metre wide fold-down bed above the cab can be raised and lowered electrically with minimal effort. The switch for the jolt-free elec-tric drive is integrated in the front of the bed and can be reached from the living space with ease.
Clear view in winter
The heated front windscreen consists of two panes with almost invisible wire heating ele-ments, ensuring a clear view within minutes when the engine is switched on.
Hot-water heating
As a high-quality alternative to hot air heating, the ALDE hot water heating system with its numerous convectors provides a par-ticularly pleasant warmth. The system is also available with an energy-saving heat exchang-er on request.
Relaxed driving
The Fiat Comfort-Matic combines the preci-sion of a 6-speed gearbox with the comfort of an automatic. The gears can be changed either manually, by tipping the selector lever, or ful-ly automatically – with optimised function and fuel consumption.
Baking and roasting
The Thetford Aspire hob and oven combination offers home-from-home cooking convenience. From baking to grilling to cooking, it caters to every culinary desire – and the individual com-ponents are very easy to clean.
Extra comfort to order
Want to add a more personal touch of class to your HYMER motorhome? There is a wealth of attractive extras available to customise your van. Below are just a few of them – your HYMER dealer will be happy to provide details of the full range.
