Welcome to the luxury class! For our prize-winning Hobby PREMIUM, only the best is good enough. Elegant throughout – from the exterior design down to the smallest detail. No other caravan has changed the design of the industry as dramatically as the PREMIUM. Six layouts ensure perfect space organisation, whatever your needs, making this van the number-one choice for all those who will only settle for the best.
High expectations? Then you’ve come to the right place! Because with Hobby caravans, modern comforts come as standard. Items you would pay for elsewhere as optional extras are all part of the package at Hobby. On the following pages you’ll find an array of features to make holidays in your Hobby caravan even more enjoyable.
Leather finish
Optional for Premium
Optional extras for
Articulated TV bracket with swivel arm
Optionally available for many models: the swivelling TV bracket for watching TV from the seating area or bed – top-rated by the German specialist magazine “Camping, Cars & Caravans”. A pull-out shelf for the TV is used in vehicles where there is not enough room to fit the articulated bracket.
Blaupunkt 4.1 sound system with powerful subwoofer
Versatile entertainment system for listening to the radio and playing music (CD, USB storage stick, SD card) with comfortable operation of all functions via remote control. Excellent audio quality is ensured by four loudspeakers positioned in optimal locations in the living area.
Satellite system
The fully automatic satellite system Cap 650 from Kathrein includes a rotating flat antenna with a large range. Measuring just 21 centimetres high, it has excellent aerodynamic qualities. The antenna comes with a twin LNB, which means that two receivers can be integrated in the system and are automatically aligned.
Additional electric heater
The additional 230V TRUMA Ultraheat electric heater provides a back-up for the TRUMA gas heater and uses the existing hot air pipes. It serves to warm up the interior more quickly on cold days. (Standard in all UK caravans fitted with a TRUMA S heater: except ONTOUR.)
TRUMA electric boiler, 14-litre
Fast heating thanks to TRUMA VarioHeat
All caravans up to type 495 (standard on 460 SFf) can be fitted with the TRUMA VarioHeat “Comfort”. It features three heat settings, warms up the caravan in next to no time, and automatically adjusts the heat output to the required room temperature. As a digital gas heating system, it can be perfectly integrated into the Hobby CI-BUS on-board management system.
Hot water underfloor heating
The combination of a hot water heater and hot water underfloor heating provides the highest levels of comfort. The floor is warmed up by a system of pipes, through which the hot water flows. In conjunction with heat transfer panels, the heat is distributed throughout the floor of the vehicle.
Optional extras for
ALDE hot water heater
The ALDE hot water heater 3020 HE with a total power output of 8,500 watts and an integrated 8.4-litre boiler is available from type 490. Heating and water heating can be activated both simultaneously and independently of one another. (Standard in all UK Premium caravans)
Optional extras for
HOBBYCONNECT
Developed exclusively for Hobby leisure vehicles, the HOBBYCONNECT M2M system allows you to control the entire on-board technology via mobile devices such as smartphones or tablets. For this you will need the “MyHobby” app, which can be used to check or directly activate settings such as time, temperatures, filling levels and battery charge. (Standard in UK PRESTIGE and PREMIUM Models)
Other BUS-capable on-board components such as heating and air conditioning can also be centrally controlled. HOBBYCONNECT provides an interface between the caravan’s CI-BUS on-board management system and the Internet. That means you can connect directly with virtually any location in the world from your own vehicle. Data communication takes place in both directions via a special web server. That way you can receive push notifications on the mobile device, e.g. if the vehicle is removed from its location in case of theft.
Hobby CI-BUS on-board management system with TFT control panel
Hobby CI-BUS on-board management system with TFT control panel
The Hobby-designed CI-BUS on-board management system controls all devices and functions within the on-board network. The control button plus six additional softkeys under the display allow convenient and intuitive navigation between menus. Whether TRUMA, ALDE or DOMETIC: thanks to the cross-sector interface, the new symbols and graphics on the Hobby TFT control panel represent a cross-section of all manufacturers’ symbols. That way the user is presented with an already familiar symbolic environment and can read off data from the display, e.g. date/time, inside/outside temperature, water tank filling level and battery charge/discharge, or activate settings directly. Other BUS-capable on-board components, such as heating, air conditioning and the electric rooflight can also be centrally controlled. The system is standardised and updateable, thus ensuring compatibility with next-generation devices. To date, up to 15 devices can already communicate with the control panel. (See manufacturer’s instructions; Standard in all UK Caravans except Ontour)
12 V autonomy package and state-of-the-art battery management:
The intelligent battery sensor (IBS) supplies all the key data such as charging time, charging current and charging voltage, as well as the remaining running time and discharge current of the GEL or AGM battery in autonomous mode. All values can be read off from the TFT control panel. The battery sensors supply the intelligent charger with the exact charging current and voltage it needs, thereby ensuring energy-efficient charging up to 100 percent capacity. With this system, charging times are reduced by approx. 30% by comparison with conventional chargers.
HobbyKomplett for
Removable carpeting
The optional carpeting lets you recreate the comfort of your living room at home. It consists of multiple elements specially tailored to fit the layout of your caravan, and can be easily removed for cleaning. (Standard in all UK caravans except Ontour (optional))
