The VW Grand California is one of the world’s best-selling campervans, and it’s clear to see why. The 600 model offers highly practical beds for 2 adults and 2 children, alongside a fully integrated, separate wet room. It's kitted out in Volkswagen’s latest technology, replacing older controls with a 10-inch central infotainment touchscreen up front and a dedicated 5-inch portrait touchscreen in the living area, complemented by the California smartphone app to monitor your heating, lighting, water, and battery levels remotely. Combined with a newly refined premium interior, it remains the ideal choice if you are looking for a fully equipped family campervan.
You can rest easy knowing that Volkswagen is a German brand known for reliability and if you opt for a Grand California you've got a dependable model.
There are 2 models available with the Grand California; the 600 and the slightly larger 680. Just scroll up to see our best lease deals on both of these.
The Grand California is the ultimate choice for touring couples and adventurous families who prioritise luxurious, self-contained living space, a built-in wet room, and massive Crafter-based cargo capacity over compact, car-like maneuverability. It's perfect for outdoor enthusiasts or holiday groups who spend their time managing road trips and extended getaways where maximum independence and home-style comfort truly shine. While it feels cavernous inside and effortlessly swallows both your holiday gear and travel companions, the latest models are more than capable of handling cross-country tours with relaxing composure.
If you love the high-roofed practicality and cavernous interior of the Grand California but want to explore other fully equipped campervans, you should look at the Volkswagen Grand California 680, which shares the same luxurious, factory-converted platform but offers a more spacious longitudinal bed layout. For those who want a similar high-spec experience but prefer slightly more compact dimensions or different layout options, the Volkswagen California (based on the Transporter) is an excellent, more drivable alternative.
There are a number of reasons that leasing can be a great choice for your next vehicle even if you're looking at a campervan and not a car.
Leasing will often be cheaper than purchasing the vehicle, even if you are on a purchase hire agreement. Additionally, you’ll often be able to afford a higher spec of model if you are leasing due to the great deals we’re able to achieve.
The cheapest Grand California lease price will depend on a number of factors including the deals available at the time from the manufacturer, dealer and funder. We work hard at Xcite Car Leasing to get the best leasing offers possible and you’ll see these listed above for you.
Additionally, the contract terms you want will have an impact on the monthly lease price, this includes the contract length, the mileage allowance and whether you include a maintenance package as part of the agreement. The initial rental payment amount will also affect the monthly price as the total lease cost remains the same no matter how much you pay upfront, which means if you pay a large initial rental you’ll then be able to reduce the subsequent monthly payments.
The Grand California is one of the best campervans on the market and so we think that it’s a great investment. If you’re not able to purchase one outright then leasing might be the right option for you.
