Refreshed Designs Unveiled for Carthago's Stylish c Line Range in 2026, Including Redesigned Interiors and a New Stationary Bed Configuration
The luxury motorhome manufacturer, Carthago, has unveiled a series of exciting updates for its chic c-line range in 2026. Key changes include the introduction of Fiat Ducato-based vehicles, the debut of the distinctive "V-face" front facade, and a revamped interior design.
Expanded Versatility with Fiat Ducato Chassis
For the first time, Carthago is offering the c-line range on the Fiat Ducato chassis. These are available in two variants: a lightweight 3.5-ton and a comfort-oriented 4.2-ton model. This expansion adds versatility and customer choice by providing Fiat Ducato versions to the existing Mercedes Sprinter lineup.
Stylish "V-face" Front Facade
The Mercedes Sprinter-based chic c-line models for 2026 now feature the "V-face" front facade, which was first introduced last season on the Mercedes-based e-line vehicles. This new front design includes a hexagonal radiator grille with five crossbars, a prominent, chrome-plated "C" emblem centrally located, and grey "A" pillars that extend all the way to the roof. This "V-face" styling effectively gives the vehicles a distinctive, upscale look associated with Carthago’s premium brand identity.
Updated Interiors and Improved Kitchen Layouts
All new c-line models feature updated interiors. Standard is the “Amalfi” style with an “Exclusive Walnut” furniture finish and overhead lockers with bi-colour handle-free doors. Optionally, the “Cortina” style provides the same walnut furniture finish but with muted white handle-free locker doors and kitchen drawers, plus wood-effect worktops.
The kitchen includes a new floating worktop design that doubles as a raised counter and room divider, plus a bar cabinet on the rear wall with a pull-out wine rack, enhancing both function and aesthetics.
New Layouts and Continued Premium Features
The c-line range now includes some 14 models combining both Fiat Ducato- and Mercedes Sprinter-based vehicles. A notable new floorplan is the T 4.9LE layout featuring fixed single beds in the rear for more comfortable sleeping arrangements.
The c-line continues to offer premium elements such as the Carthago Carawinx sleeping system, AL-KO low frame chassis for comfort and light weight, and multiple standard and safety features consistent with Carthago’s reputation.
New Fiat-Based Campervan Range from Carthago's Sister Brand, Malibu
In addition to the c-line updates, Carthago's sister brand, Malibu, is launching a new Fiat-based campervan range for 2026, designed to maximize the feeling of space.
Phasing Out Wider c1 Tourer Models
The wider c1 tourer A-class models, except for the I 149 RB LE model, are being phased out, with the I 149 RB LE continuing as a c1 tourer or a c2 A-class on a Mercedes or on a Fiat, but only as a "comfort 4.2t" model.
New Features for s-plus Models
The chic s-plus models this season will feature a new-look Iveco Daily cab, which comes with a wireless charging pad, dedicated spaces for a phone and a tablet, a two-way adjustable steering column, a new Hi-Mac gear selector, a 10-inch infotainment display that supports Apple CarPlay and Android Auto, and motorhome-related sat nav.
