Built on a premium, highly reliable Mercedes-Benz chassis with Kea’s renowned manufacturing quality, this luxury motorhome combines a highly functional layout, clever space-saving innovations, and essential off-grid features in a beautifully designed body.
Powered by a dependable Mercedes turbo diesel engine, the Discovery delivers smooth, effortless driving and excellent fuel efficiency on the open highway.

The interior features an innovative dual-bed design at the rear, highlighted by a permanent electric double bed that drops down from the ceiling in seconds. This clever layout allows you to keep the main bed made at all times for ultimate convenience, which sits above a spacious rear lounge that quickly converts into a second large double bed. The vehicle features seamless internal walk-through access from the cabin to the living zone, which is lined with premium linoleum flooring and fully air-conditioned throughout with a reverse-cycle system. The kitchen is fully equipped for easy meal prep with a 3-burner gas hob and grill, a microwave, an LCD screen with a DVD player, and an efficient fridge/freezer, while an on-board combo shower and toilet bathroom is connected to a gas-pressurised hot water service and dual 100L fresh and grey water tanks for total self-containment.
Additional premium features include a 240V mains and 12V auxiliary power network, backed by a 100Ah deep-cycle house battery and a 140W roof-mounted solar panel for great free camping ability. Outside, the motorhome elevates your camping experience with a large roll-out side sun awning, allowing you to create a comfortable shaded area wherever you park.
