EXCLUSIVELY IN EUROPE: THE DOMED ROOF Thanks to its smooth 13° curve (the canopy is 40mm thick around the edges and 55mm in the middle), the overlapping domed roof prevents water from collecting and stops seepage. |
|
|
GUARANTEED WATERTIGHTNESS THANKS TO THE OVERLAPPING ROOF Our domed roof overlaps the structure, covering the side walls much like a 'lid'. This prevents all risks of leakage, therefore guaranteeing optimal water tightness for the walls. EFFECTIVE HAIL-PROOFING The absorption properties of the hail-proof polyester roof render it resistant to impact. It can also withstand abrasion, scratches and scruffs caused by branches. |
|
THE WALLS The Le Voyageur's 38mm-thick walls have been awarded Class 3 TRUMA® and ALDE® best heating rating, and are certified by our suppliers. Le Voyageur is proud of its excellent capacity to protect its users from bad weather. |
|
|
ALUMINIUM FOR BETTER DURABILITY
The unit is fitted with an aluminium structure, allowing for a stiff, solid framework. The walls, floor and roof are held together by aluminium inserts. The skirts are also made from aluminium. Aluminium offers a double advantage: in the event of impact it will not break, and it's easier to replace if necessary. It is also a 30% better heat conductor than plywood, making our motorhomes all the more comfortable. |

TRAVEL FAR AND WIDE, IN ALL SEASONS
Accessible via both exterior doors and inside trapdoors, the double floor offers extra storage for your bulky items. Well insulated and heated, the double floor retains and radiates warmth just like classic underfloor heating.

SMART, SPACIOUS STORAGE

|
STORAGE Accessible via both exterior doors and inside trapdoors, the double floor offers ideal extra storage for your bulky items such as chairs, tables or even skis. |
|
A UNIQUE LOCKING SYSTEM Taking your essentials with you wherever you may roam is one thing, but making sure that they're still there when you get back is even more important. This is why Le Voyageur designed a locking system unique in Europe: thanks to simple visual aids, you can check whether your storage compartments are locked in mere seconds. The double-jointed locking system will also ensure perfect air - and water tightness. |
|
TECHNICAL EXCELLENCE AT YOUR FINGERTIPS
|
A TECHNICAL CABINET FOR ELECTRICITY
Everything is centralised for easy access to the switchboard, battery, and 230V socket. The electrical technical cabinet housed underneath the refrigerator is accessible from the outside. The 230V connection emerges through a vent in the floor; this is practical and does not impact the insulation of the unit. |
|
A TECHNICAL CABINET FOR WATER AND HEATING This cabinet contains the elements of the water and heating system. Filling, pipe access and tank evacuation: everything is centralised in this cabinet. Located beneath the storage double floor, the reservoirs are frost-protected for use in all seasons. |
|
SIMPLE, ECONOMICAL WATER MANAGEMENT
|
TWO LARGE TANKS The large fresh water (200L) and wastewater (120L) tanks are fitted on the rear axle. They can be filled and emptied with ease using large-diameter tubes. Simultaneous air and water inflows allow for a better flow and faster filling. The wastewater evacuation valve is placed inside the technical cabinet. Its frost-protection means it can be used in all seasons. Both the kitchen and the bathroom are equipped with mixer taps with aerators. These save 20% on water consumption, meaning you can always go further with your Le Voyageur LV motorhome. |

EXCEPTIONAL VISIBILITY
|
PANORAMIC VISIBILITY With their redesigned front end, close visibility is excellent on all our LV motorhomes. The view from the driver’s seat is panoramic, and the frontwards angle of vision is such that you can see a 60cm object just 2.09 metres away. |
|
|
REAR VISIBILITY Visibility towards the rear is facilitated by a reversing camera and by its screen built into the dashboard. Bus-style suspended rear-view mirrors will facilitate all your reversing manoeuvres. The additional wide-angle rear-view mirror means there are no blind spots, and you can safely overtake in all circumstances. |
EXCEPTIONAL ROAD HANDLING
|
ROAD HANDLING The wide track AL-KO® chassis is the high-end benchmark, offering innovative technology for greater safety and considerably improved road handling. Light-weight and low-slung, it optimises the motorhome's load capacity. Its low centre of gravity provides for the best possible comfort on the road. |
|
|
|
COMPLETE AL-KO COMPATIBILITY Designed to ensure high levels of comfort and safety, the AL-KO range offers a wide variety of accessories to match your style and meet all your needs. The ALC – or AL-KO Level Controller – stabilises the rear axle at an optimal level, regardless of the load. Even if you opt for long motorhome with a long overhang, the ground clearance will remain consistent. The full Air Premium air suspension is also fitted with pneumatic suspension on the front and rear axles. In terms of suspension comfort, it's unparalleled. |
|
ALWAYS SAFE THANKS TO ABS AND ESP ABS: 3-letter acronym for anti-lock braking system. This system limits wheel-locking during emergency braking. Each wheel is fitted with sensors that calculate the speed of all four wheels and reduce braking pressure to avoid locking. ABS makes it possible to brake effectively and efficiently. ESP: Electronic stability program which modulates the brakes and engine torque on your motorhome. If it senses that you are turning at a high speed, or suddenly changing direction, the ESP will take over and control the front and/or rear brakes. It increases or reduces your engine's RPM to ensure that you remain in control. |
|
LIGHTNING PROTECTION
Our motorhomes are built around aluminium interior walls and roofs.
Thanks to earthing through the wheels, this aluminium structure acts as a Faraday cage to isolate you from lightning strikes and conduct the electricity through to the ground. Safe in the comfort of your motorhome, you can enjoy travelling, whatever the weather.

THE FLOOR For extra home comfort the LV range has designed its motorhomes without steps, even in the sleeping area thanks to storage double floors. You can move around easily right up to the foot of the bed without anything in the way. |
|
HEATING SYSTEM AND HEAT TRANSFER Using high-end materials and technical specificities, Le Voyageur motorhomes have been awarded Class 3 best heating rating for TRUMA® and ALDE®. The interior temperature rises from -15°C to 20°C in 4 hours. Well insulated and heated, the storage double floor retains and radiates warmth just like classic underfloor heating. To retain this heat, all walls and roofs are composed of Styrofoam-lined aluminium. This results in a 30% better heat conductor than plywood. The fleece-like fabric that lines the walls offers better thermal and acoustic insulation, as well as a cosy atmosphere for your interior. |

INTERIOR DESIGN THAT ALLOWS FOR MORE COMFORT AND SPACE
|
F-SHAPED LOUNGE: FACE-TO-FACE LOUNGE SEATS
With its specially designed face-to-face lounge seats, integrated into what we like to call an F-shaped lounge, Le Voyageur has truly optimised this vital motorhome area. This layout is ideal for moving around freely thanks to the central folding table that frees up a comfortable passage space between the unit and the cab. Under each bench you will find a "Jack-in-the-box"-style passenger seat, offering 4 legal seats (depending on the configuration). If there are only two of you travelling, the "Jack-in-the-box" seats can be removed to free up additional storage and load capacity. These storage units are accessible from inside and out, ideal for loading heavy items with minimal effort. |
|
L-SHAPED LOUNGE We also offer a more traditional L-shaped lounge layout. The L-shaped lounge comes with additional seats and can be quickly converted into a 2-seat front-facing bench for trips with four people. If you would like, there is the possibility of an optional 5th legal seat on the passenger side bench, depending on the configuration of your vehicle. |
|
ELEGANT AND FUNCTIONAL KITCHENS
|
|
SPACIOUS AND BRIGHT The kitchens in our motorhomes come with plenty of storage space, and benefit from our technical expertise. To make your life easier, the sink cover-lid converts into a worktop extension and draining board. |
RELAXING SLEEPING AREA
|
FOR A BETTER NIGHT'S SLEEP Because we want to put the 'home' in 'motorhome', we continuously strive to offer you the highest level of comfort. And to do so, we use the most appropriate technical solutions and source our materials from reliable partners. Le Voyageur's beds are fitted with Bultex mattresses for optimal comfort. |
