Autocruise Van Conversions Feature List

  • Overview

    Autocruise is part of the market leading Swift Group. Specialising exclusively in the design and manufacture of van conversion motorhomes, the brand is the number one choice for this type of motorhome.

    Whether you need a vehicle for everyday use, holiday or business the van conversion range is incredibly versatile.

    With car standards of driving style and interior appeal, Autocruise van conversions are purpose built to provide spacious facilities for someone wanting to drive a more compact vehicle. Based on either the Fiat Ducato or Peugeot Boxer they are transformed to provide all the home comforts of their larger coachbuilt cousins in a more manageable size.

    Choose from seven standard models, two new for 2013, and all can now be specified with the Fiat 130bhp engine with Comfort-Matic automatic gearbox.

    In addition to the standard range is the entry level Rhythm Sport which is based on the standard Rhythm model, but by carefully choosing specification that provides year round comfort but without some of the non essential items, the Sport is available at an amazing entry level price.
