The Hymercar Grand Canyon is one of those campervans that makes you want to hit the road and keep driving. Built on the ever-reliable Fiat Ducato or Mercedes-Benz chassis, this high-end camper combines German precision engineering with a clever, comfortable layout. Compact from the outside, yet surprisingly spacious inside, it’s a favourite among adventurers who refuse to compromise on quality, or style.
But with all its quality fittings and high-spec features, this isn’t the sort of vehicle you want underinsured. A standard van policy might recognise the wheels and engine; but not the plush interior, clever heating systems or that pop-top roof that cost you a small fortune.
The Grand Canyon is designed for those who want flexibility. It’s compact enough for urban parking, but thanks to its smart layout, there’s still space for a transverse bed, a decent kitchen, and a proper washroom. Many models include a pop-top roof for extra sleeping space and headroom, making it a genuine option for families or friends on tour.
And of course, being a Hymer, there’s that premium touch. Soft-close drawers. Insulated water tanks. Underfloor heating in some variants. This isn’t just a camper, it’s a home on wheels.
Just imagine: parked at a mountain viewpoint, sun going down, the kettle on. You step outside to stretch your legs. A few minutes later, a gust of wind catches the pop-top just as you’re closing it. The mechanism jams. Now the canvas is torn, and the roof sits unevenly. Inside, a cupboard has jolted open, spilling a tin of beans onto your heated floor. The stain won’t budge.
Will your insurance cover the pop-top damage and the internal fittings? And more importantly, will it do so without treating your camper like just another tradesman’s van?
For a vehicle like the Hymercar Grand Canyon, it’s worth checking your policy includes:
Do you take your Grand Canyon away most weekends, or is it saved for those long summer escapes? Do you park it in a secure compound or on your drive? Do you bring bikes, paddleboards, or a portable pizza oven? (You wouldn’t be the first.) The more you use it, and the more kit you pack; the more tailored your cover needs to be.
The Hymercar Grand Canyon is a premium campervan built for serious travel. Get a quote through this website and make sure your insurance is every bit as well put together as your van. Because when your camper is this good, a sense of being shielded should come as standard.
Better safe than sorry - especially when your next adventure is just around the corner.
