Structure & Quality

The Pro.Tec frame is a particularly solid aluminium profile strip that connects the side wall, front wall, rear wall and roof to one another. It enhances the stability of the bodywork and therefore also the longevity of the entire vehicle. A particular highlight: The Pro.Tec frame incorporates a chamber for the sealant. This means that it can no longer bulge out, ensuring a seamless appearance. (Model‐dependent)

Thanks to a unique folding lamella construction and a completely new type of taillight carrier, the rear of the VAN TI forms a completely flat surface that has a particularly automotive effect and maximises the living space inwards without having to increase the external dimensions of the vehicle. (Model‐dependent)

Three‐dimensional lighting geometry and dynamic LED indicators develop the CATEYE evolution rear tail lights further enhance the design of the unique KNAUS night signature as well as increasing driving safety. (Model‐dependent)

To ensure optimum protection of the underfloor against weathering, stone impacts etc., we fit a thick, resilient GRP layer. (Model‐dependent)

Functional sandwich construction consisting of aluminium and insulating materials (XPS or EPS) with reinforcements made of polyurethane plastic and a completely bonded bodywork structure makes the entire vehicle more stable, more resistant to decay and more durable. (Optional)

Not all GRP is the same. Its resilience depends on its glass content. To maximise protection against hail, we therefore opted for the high‐strength variant, whose glass content is almost three times higher than standard GRP. (Across all series)

For all our leisure vehicles, we offer you a 10‐year leak‐proofness guarantee on the body manufactured by us as well as a 24‐month guarantee from your KNAUS partner within the framework of our guarantee conditions valid at the time of vehicle delivery. (Across all series)

When designing the exterior, we always make sure to harmoniously integrate the design language of the base vehicle into our KNAUS moulded parts. This can be seen, for example, in the hood and the fender with invisible screw connections. Striking front design and a concise radiator grille make a strong statement. The harmonious integration of the driver’s cabin combination with the aerodynamically shaped hood ensures a dynamic silhouette.

A clearly structured cockpit is essential for maintaining an overview while driving. That’s why all the important elements are arranged here so that they can be reached quickly and conveniently. Practical storage compartments and intuitive operating concepts make the cab a perfectly equipped driver’s workplace. On MAN TGE vehicles the standard multifunction display „Plus“ provides an optimum overview. The monochrome TFT display shows current information such as the outside temperature, remaining range and average consumption. In addition, the driver assistance systems can be conveniently operated via this display. If the worst comes to the worst, standard driver and passenger airbags provide protection.

Optimised tracking, reduced rolling movements and optimised handling in bends: this is what the 2‐channel air suspension on the rear axle ensures. This not only increases driving comfort, but also safety. For long journeys, the automatic transmission is recommended – a real comfort plus, as is the electronic parking brake. The electromechanical power steering 1 provides a clear plus in driving pleasure as well as convenient parking and unparking. The steering is automatically adjusted to the speed. For maximum driving safety, all vehicles have ABS, ESP & Hill Holder as standard.

Drowsiness detection, traffic sign recognition,electronic immobiliser,… The list of modern driver assistance systems is long. Many of them are already standard equipment on our vehicles, such as the emergency brake assistant on MAN TGE vehicles. With further optional systems, you can tailor your KNAUS precisely to your needs.

The high‐quality 2‐channel air suspension is standard equipment in all KNA US motorhomes on MAN TGE base.

Thanks to our special gas bottle pull‐out system, you will find it especially easy to check and replace gas bottles. The system can take two 11 kg gas bottles and simplifies their loading and replacement. TRUMA gas pressure regulators are easy to reset and have an optimised, clear status display. The new gas pressure regulators from TRUMA 3 are easier to reset and have an optimised and clear status indicator. Combined with the very easy‐to‐swap gas filter insert, the entire gas system and all gas‐operated devices are effectively protected. Residues are collected in a replaceable filter pad, eliminating the need to change the filter cartridge.

To safely attach your bicycles to the rear of your motorhome, you need look no further than the Thule Lift V16. The rack’s lift function allows it to be lowered by up to 70 cm for especially user‐friendly loading and unloading. An integrated safety frame ensures that the wheels do not slip during travel. The more adjustable wheel holders can be easily adapted to different wheel sizes – from mountain bikes to children’s bikes.

The double seal also ensures that heavy driving rain and wind noises do not dampen your holiday experience. Our garage doors and service doors come with convenient central locking so that you don’t have to individually lock and unlock every single one. Everything is secured at the press of a button. The optional alarm system provides even more protection. (Across all series / Model‐dependent / Optional)

Timeless design is of little use if the vehicle starts to look old after just a few years. That is why we insist on high‐quality films from reputable suppliers such as 3M, Avery and Oracal. (Across all series)

Heartburn, headaches, allergies: Things you hardly ever need – especially when you are travelling. To ensure that you are well prepared for the worst case scenario, every KNAUS vehicle is accompanied by a MediKit voucher with which you can conveniently redeem the practical first‐aid kit with our shipping partner online.

Exceptional material quality forms the basis for maximising longevity. With this in mind, we fit solid cast‐iron pan supports, scratch‐resistant stainless steel sinks, highquality metal handles, for example, and lots more besides.

The head‐up display projects all important data such as navigation and speed as well as traffic sign recognition into the driver’s field of vision via a transparent screen. This means you don’t have to take your eyes off the road unnecessarily and can concentrate better on what’s happening on the road. To make your journey even more stress‐free and entertaining at the same time, the new Pioneer navigation system offers everything you need for short and long journeys with a higher contrast 9" multi‐touch display, improved viewing angle and 24bit colour depth.

The furniture makes an important contribution to the stability of the entire bodywork. For this reason, we use high‐strength aluminium profiles in our furnishings. As well as being even more robust than solid wood profiles, they are noticeably lighter.

No banging, no rattling, no need to push shut. Thanks to high‐quality hinges, the soft‐close doors shut gently and lock completely automatically.

Our furnishings are joined as standard using complex dowel technology. As a result, we achieve a very high accuracy of fit and much more stable cabinetry that you can enjoy for many years to come.

High‐Pressure Laminate is a laminate material that is used specifically for the high levels of stress encountered, for example, in kitchens. The multi‐layered structure is produced under very high pressure and sealed with a particularly resilient top layer. This makes our countertops and tabletops particularly scratch‐resistant.

For our drawer slides, we work with the quality supplier GRASS, which normally supplies to furniture manufacturing brands. And you’ll notice this too. Thanks to full‐extension drawer slides, the drawers extend so far out that they are easy to fill or empty all the way to the back. They are guided precisely and shut gently – for the lifetime of the vehicle and probably beyond.
