KABE Ri810 LGB – tow heavy trailers with twin wheels

For the first time, KABE is launching a fully integrated motorhome with twin wheels, meaning dual rear wheels mounted on the same axle. The reason is the increased need to be able to tow heavier trailers.

– Active motorhome owners with hobbies such as horses, boats, motorcycles, or racing cars want the possibility to tow heavy trailers with their motorhome, says Mikael Blomqvist, CEO of KABE.

The new KABE Ri810 LGB with twin wheels has a maximum train weight of 7 tons, which is the highest permitted combined gross weight for car and trailer together. The towing weight is up to 2 tons. The model, built on a Mercedes Sprinter with Mercedes' own chassis with frame rails, can be equipped with a 190-horsepower engine.

– The powerful engine combined with rear-wheel drive provides very good accessibility, especially in winter conditions or on slippery surfaces, says Mikael.

The KABE Ri810 is available in both Crown and Imperial versions with an LGB layout with a queen bed, angled kitchen, adjustable double bed, and a seperate shower and toilet.

KABE Travel Master Classic 740 – a much-anticipated comeback

This year, the Travel Master Classic 740 is being relaunched in KABE's model range. The Classic, which was a great success as an entry-level model from 2015-2022, is back with a new exterior look and new specifications but with the same proven and appreciated concept. Built on the brand new Fiat Ducato chassis with a 140-horsepower engine, 8-speed automatic transmission, and a convenient 740-length, the series offers good driving characteristics and a car-like driving experience. The TMC 740 has a new exterior design with unique decorations in the classic KABE colors red and black. The gray-painted driver's cab contributes to giving the series a fresh exterior expression.

Three Layouts
The new Classic is launched in three familiar layouts; LXL with a French bed and the single bed variants LGB and T. All three models are semi-integrated motorhomes in the 3.5-ton class and can be driven with a regular B driving license.

– The new Classic is probably the market's most affordable model series with patented KABE quality, year-round capabilities, modern technology, and good motorhome economy, says Mikael Blomqvist, CEO of KABE.

The Classic can be ordered with three different option packages – a safety package, a heavy package with a total weight of 4250 kilos, and a heavy package with a total weight of 4400 kilos and a 180-horsepower engine.

KABE Van – design upgrade and new off-road package

This year marks five years since KABE launched its first Van model. It has quickly become popular, not least for its good winter characteristics, excellent ride comfort, and stylish design. For the 2025 model year, the exterior design has been updated with larger decorative panels that give a sporty impression. Recently, an off-road package was introduced for the 2023 and 2024 KABE Van models. It includes 18-inch off-road tires and rims, fender flares, and a robust front bar. For 2025, this package is expanded with, among other things, electrical side steps, a practical as well as a design-enhancing addition.

– The off-road package makes it easier in hard-to-reach areas. But the exterior impression also becomes more impressive, it is of course also a design issue, says Peter Vlaanderen, sales manager for several European countries.

Another new feature is the unique height-adjustable TV mount, placed between the front toilet wall and the back of the seating group. With a simple push of a button, the TV is raised or lowered. Other new features on the KABE Van include an upgraded seating group with a new belt buckle with an adjustable headrest and a larger freshwater tank of 91 liters.

KABE Caravans 2025

KABE Estate - Stylish Facelift

KABE markets five different model series within caravans - from the entry-level Estate to the exclusive Imperial caravan, which is actually the most exclusive caravan model in all of Europe. The wide range and high quality have made KABE the best-selling caravan in Sweden during 2023 with a market share of 24 percent. One of the year's new features can be found in the modern Estate series, which meets the 2025 model year with a new fresh look. The affordable Estate series was launched in 2022 and particularly appeals to new campers and younger families. The sleek design and modern styling stand out, not least the attractive overhead cabinets that set the tone for the entire caravan. Last year, the overhead cabinets were further improved with new doors in the Grau foil with wood edge and black stripe.

New Exterior
The KABE Estate gets a new sporty exterior design for the 2025 model year.
– The series gets a completely new decal set with a 3D feel that makes a stylish statement, says Peter Vlaanderen, sales manager for several European countries. Last year's straight design is replaced with sweeping lines that signal speed and forward movement. As before, the Estate has a lot of standard equipment, including water-borne floor heating with Alde Compact boiler, TV antenna, stereo, built-in speakers, router, USB ports, and a ski locker with an exterior lockable door. The KABE Estate is available in thirteen layouts.

Smart TV Solution for All Caravans

Many want to be able to watch their favorite series even on the go. Therefore, the TV solution is something KABE has prioritized in this year's model program.

– All caravans now have an entrance with a new construction. The TV stand is placed on the wall at the entrance and can be easily swung out, explains Peter Vlaanderen.

The new design makes it possible to have a TV up to 32 inches in size. The CTDL and CXL layouts retain their smart TV solution with the height-adjustable TV mount placed in the backrest of the seating area. Here you can raise or lower the TV with a simple push of a button. As standard in all KABE caravans, a TV antenna with an amplifier and a router that makes it easy to use streaming services are included.

Stylish and Functional Kitchens

For the 2025 model year, the kitchen in all KABE caravans gets a tasteful update that enhances the experience in perhaps the most important space in a recreational vehicle.

– The kitchen is often the heart of a caravan. Interest in cooking on vacation is increasing and with this year's kitchen news, we improve both function and aesthetics, says Peter Vlaanderen.

The focus has been on clean lines and seamless transitions. The gables and moldings have been made less visible to give a homogeneous impression. The kitchen drawers have overlay black handles that blend in nicely. On the Royal and Imperial, there is a spacer at the bottom with lighting. The spacer provides room for your feet, which creates a better working position at the kitchen counter.

Gas-under-Glass Cooktop – Unique Innovation!

The luxurious Imperial caravans get the exclusive kitchen faucet that we recognize from last year's Imperial motorhomes. In the Imperial, we find another interesting innovation, namely the Gas-under-Glass cooktop. It has two gas burners and an induction plate – all neatly hidden under the smooth cooktop.

– It is both aesthetically pleasing and simplifies cleaning. Gas-under-Glass is an exciting innovation that we are the first to introduce to the caravan market, says Peter Vlaanderen.
