Summary
A Conversion Kit to Turn Any Model into a Volkswagen Crafter Campervan
How to Convert a Crafter?
Would you like to transform your van, minibus, or combi into a converted Crafter?
But perhaps you don't want to spend €85,000 on a Balcamp Crafter 720 GFK?
And why buy a second camper van when you can convert your main vehicle in 5-10 minutes whenever you want?
With our solution, you will save money on the initial purchase, allowing you to enjoy your future road trips even more!
Wait no longer, here are some images from a customer who uses our kit for their converted Crafter:
Sleeping with Your Bike or Motorcycle in Your Converted Crafter
Yes, this is one of the advantages of our Crafter campervan – you can install a bike rack or motorcycle attachment on our technical flooring.
This allows you to travel and sleep with your sports equipment inside.
A Converted Crafter Minibus or Combi
For minibus or combi Crafter models, it is also possible to convert them into a camper van.
Several options are available to you:
- Remove the rear benches when converting your Crafter into a van, and simply replace the seats during the week to transport people.
- You can also keep one rear bench and convert your Combi behind that bench.
Converted Crafter Extended Cab
For the extended cab version, we also have a solution, regardless of your Crafter's length.
As a reminder, the extended cab Crafter features a partition between the cargo area and the rear bench seat of the van.

More Examples of Converted Crafter Vans
E-Crafter, an Electric Volkswagen Crafter Converted into a Van
And for the electric Crafter version, it’s the same – the engine technology doesn't matter to us:
Yes, it is indeed possible to convert your e-Crafter electric van into a camper with the Combeing conversion kit.
The Volkswagen Grand California
We must also present the model offered by Volkswagen themselves: the Grand California, a camper van based on the Crafter.
As for the price, you’ll need about €85,000 to own one of these converted vans.
That's why we always recommend thinking carefully first. Will you live in your van all year round? Or will it be a secondary vehicle, in which case you need to consider the extra costs (registration, insurance, repairs, etc.)?
For the looks, we have to admit, this Crafter conversion is simple:
The Balcamp Crafter 720 GFK
If you prefer a solution at €98,000, for example, if you want to live in your camper van 365 days a year:
You could opt for the converted Crafter solution offered by the Polish company Balcamp.
This camper van features a raised roof, a permanent 200x177 cm bed, a 195x120 cm overhead bed, several storage cabinets, and a seating area for the lounge.
The Hobby Maxia Van
Here too, you'll need a minimum of €100,000 for this camper van offered by the German manufacturer Hobby, still based on the Volkswagen Crafter.
Inside the Crafter converted into a van, you’ll find the same features as the previous models, although we must admit, the quality of the materials used is top-notch.
Designed for a couple, with a large 200x860 cm double bed, natural materials, and a clean design with sleek finishes.
What is the Price of a Converted Volkswagen Crafter?
It all depends on the solution you prefer from this article.
With the Combeing solution, you’ll need to budget €3,000-4,000 for your converted Crafter.
However, if you want a custom-made camper van on the market, expect to pay at least €85,000.
Once again, we recommend assessing your medium- and long-term goals.
If you're not sure about living full-time in your van, or if you're unsure about committing to van life, perhaps you should consider a less expensive option initially. If you don't want to buy a Combeing conversion kit, renting a converted Crafter might be the right choice to try van life for 1 or 2 weeks.
