Built for the wild, priced for the real world

In an era where adventure vehicles come with hefty price tags and long option lists, the Yucon K‑Peak stands out as a rare find: off-road-ready, luxuriously equipped, and surprisingly competitively priced. Built on a Mercedes‑Benz Sprinter chassis, this German-crafted camper offers unmatched value by bundling top-tier specs as standard, making it our go-to pick for those seeking true independence without compromise

Join our very own brand specialist Nigel as he shows your around the 7.0 GD model to give you a feel of what the K-Peak range has to offer.

Thoughtful, Functional Layout Choices

Three floor-plans and flexible configurations offer real-life practicality:

All layouts feature fold-up rear beds, Froli multi-zone mattresses and spacious cabinetry, turning a sleep space into a gear hold when needed.

Fully equipped from the get-go

  • Off-Road Essentials like standard 4×4 AWD, BFGoodrich all-terrain tyres, and a 190Bhp Mercedes diesel engine deliver rugged capability without extra cost
  • A modern 9-Speed automatic transmission (G-Tronic) ensures seamless power delivery regardless of terrain.
  • Additional LED roof-mounted headlamps add visibility and style, included as part of the K-Peak package.

Standard Self-Sufficiency That Matters

Other brands may come in with a cheaper base price, but you then have to load packs & specs on, where the Yucon K-Peak range makes it part of the base spec.

Features That Come As Standard:

  • Truma Combi D6E Heating (Diesel Heating)
  • 1 x 300 Ah Lithium Battery
  • 90 W Solar Panel (Optional Pop Top Roof Comes With 2×90 W)
  • Compressor Refrigerator With 69 L Volume
  • 110 L Fresh Water Tank
  • 70 L Waste Water Tank
  • 4×4 AWD & All Terrain Tyres

There are only 4 optional extras that do not come as standard on the K-Peak range

  1. Awning
  2. WiFi
  3. Inverter (1,700 W Sine Wave)
  4. Pop Top Roof

Whether you go for the compact 6.0 GD/BD or spacious 7.0 GD, you get outstanding capability across every model as standard. Where other manufacturers tack on costly extras to reach this spec level, the K‑Peak arrives ready for adventure. For those planning to roam farther, stay longer, and camp freer, it remains the best value-for-money off-road campervan on the market.
