Erwin Hymer UK has renamed the remaining ranges in its Elddis motorhome and campervan line-up for 2026, following the launch of the new Avalon range last year.
The County Durham manufacturer has also displayed considerable differences between ranges this season when it comes to pricing.
For 2026, Avalon continues with the same four Fiat-based models, all priced at £82,505 – actually a 2.93% drop on last season’s price. This season you can opt for the £4000 Evolve pack, which for Avalon gets you Wi-Fi readiness, an alarm, Tracker, air conditioning, awning brackets and an upgraded Heki.
But the compact Accordo range has been discontinued. Instead, there are two new low-profile ranges, one based on a Peugeot Boxer called Whirlwind GT and a pricier range based on a Fiat Ducato called Autoquest Apex.
Each line-up has the same eight motorhome layouts, ranging from 5.99 to 7.34 m in length. Along with the six models carried over from Autoquest last season, this now includes the 105, an end washroom two-berth, and the 120, a rear lounge two-berth.
The only six-berth in the ranges is the 196+ model in Autoquest Apex. You’ll need to make sure you have the right driving licence for driving the motorhome though, due to an MTPLM of 3650kg – this means it can only be driven by those with a C1 licence. In Whirlwind GT you can opt for either at 196+ or a 196, which, like all the other models in the range, comes in with an MTPLM of 3500kg.
Autoquest Apex ranges in price from £72,504 to £78,505, which represents a rise of between 10.5% and 15% on last season’s Fiat-based Autoquest models. But you get considerably better spec, including an eight-speed automatic gearbox as standard with a 140bhp engine.
You also get a Winter Pack, a solar panel, a roll-out awning, an alarm, a Tracker, an Omnivent, a microwave, a dual fuel hob, cab blinds and Wi-Fi readiness, as well as an external mains socket, BBQ point and shower. All vans come in grey, with black as an option.
Whirlwind GT ranges in price from £59,999 to £65,999. That is actually a drop in price of between 2.0% and 5.6% on last year’s Peugeot-based Autoquest models. Spec is a lot more basic than Autoquest Apex, but for an extra £3500 you can get the Evolve pack.
This includes a solar panel, Winter Pack, a roll-on awning, an alarm, a Tracker, cab blinds, Wi-Fi, and an external BBQ point and mains socket. All vans come in white, with the option of a grey cab.
Within Elddis’s campervans, last season’s Autoquest CV range (which included the CV60, which we shortlisted for the best budget campervan at the Practical Motorhome Awards 2025) has been divided into Autoquest CV – with a lower spec and only manual as standard but with the Evolve Pack available for £2750 – and Autoquest Apex, with automatic as standard and higher spec.
Both ranges run on a Fiat Ducato, and range in price from £62,500 to £68,999 for Autoquest and £73,500 to £79,500 for Autoquest Apex. Both ranges have the same four layouts as last season, and all come in grey as standard, with black as an option.
A three-model Peugeot Boxer-based range has also been introduced, priced below this. Whirlwind GTV includes the 5.41 long CV554 (£57,000 and only with an automatic gearbox) and the 6m-long CV560 and 6.4m-long CV563 (£56,000 and £58,000 respectively, with manual as standard). All three models are available as three berths with a fixed roof or five-berths with a pop-up roof.
The vans come in metallic grey, and spec includes a DAB digital multimedia pack, a rear view camera and a roll-out awning as standard.
Elddis is not the only Erwin Hymer brand to be sharing 2026 season news, as upmarket caravan brand Buccaneer has launched two low-profiles. Both vehicles are Fiat Ducato-based and have an MTPLM of 3650kg.
