100,000 California camper vans made in Hannover

As it achieves a new production milestone, the most successful mobile home in its class is now setting new benchmarks. The 100,000^th California has just been produced at the Hannover-Limmer site and Volkswagen Commercial Vehicles is also heading for a new production record this year. Only last year the brand achieved a new record with 15,155 California vehicles built.

The milestone 100,000^th vehicle that has now been produced in Limmer is a California Ocean (2.0 TSI, 201bhp) with 4MOTION, seven-speed DSG, two-tone Candy White/Starlight Blue Metallic paintwork with matching dark blue pop-up roof sides and awning, cycle rack, navigation system, kitchen units, wood-look flooring and much more.

Dr. Eckhard Scholz, Chairman of the Brand Board of Management of Volkswagen Commercial Vehicles said at the celebratory event, "We could hardly write or continue this story of a legend's success in any better way because 100,000 vehicles also mean 100,000 customers living their dream of independence, travel and enjoyment with the California. The California is justifiably an icon among camping and leisure vehicles, the most popular and best-selling mobile home of its kind."
