Setting standards – this has been Westfalia’s guiding principle for
over 60 years. In 1951 Westfalia was the first company to convert a
Volkswagen Bus into a motorhome.
In the following six decades Westfalia created legends in Wiedenbrück such
as the James Cook, the Sven Hedin, the Club Joker, the California Exclusive,
the Marco Polo and the Columbus. Although these vehicles were all quite
different, they were all milestones in the development of motor homes –
innovative solutions paired with perfect craftsmanship and uncompromising
quality. This made Westfalia what it is today and defined our commitment
to the future.
01.
If you want to set standards you cannot accept the given situation but you have to
blaze new paths. So the Amundsen wins you
over with a lot of innovations.
02.
As a partner of the automotive industry we
apply the same standards to our own
products as to OEM products uncompromising quality.
Innovative details and
well thought-out solutions!
AM 600
Innovation, design and quality – these
three words have characterised Westfalia
for more than 60 years. Thanks to these
characteristics we have also become a
reliable OEM partner for the automotive industry, be it Opel, VW, Ford or
Mercedes.

GREATER SPACE AND DYNAMISM 01.
More space for your travel equipment. The
Amundsen wins you over with its generous
storage compartments and trays.
02.
The Amundsen features ergonomically
shaped seat cushions, so you can sit in
comfort without becoming tired.
With more than 60 years of experience, Westfalia is a real pioneer
in motorhome manufacturing. We not only bring these decades of
experience to the development of new vehicles, but also the passion
and enthusiasm of our employees can be felt and lived in each vehicle that leaves our factories in Wiedenbrück in Westphalia. This is also
true for the new Amundsen.
The optional flyscreen door is now
available in all Amundsen models
Once you enter the Amundsen you will immediately be struck by the inviting
and bright interior design of this youngest addition to the Westfalia family.
The materials and colours used form a pleasing whole and give a lively and
fresh appearance to the Amundsen interior. The beige colour of the furniture flaps, the low-key brown upholstery, and the silver and black highlights
make for a contemporary and high-quality overall impression.
The double bench was developed exclusively for the Amundsen and includes two seats with safety belts. Its appeal lies in its very comfortable and
ergonomically shaped cushions. Turning the driver and passenger seats 180
degrees creates a cosy sitting area, where up to four people can sit comfortably.
During the day the large windows admit plenty of light and at night a carefully designed illumination system will keep everyone in bright spirits.
Come and see for yourself. Come inside and upgrade to the Westfalia class.

Love, good food and well-being go together. Not only will you
appreciate the new kitchen in your Amundsen, you’ll love it for just
that reason.
„Functionality married to innovative design“ would be a good title for this
area of the Amundsen. The powerful 2-burner hob is connected to a generous counter top where you can prepare your food in the blink of an eye.
The sink with its one-lever mixer is located under part of the counter top.
The refrigerator in the Amundsen 540 is integrated into the front end of the kitchen
block so it is easy to operate from the inside
and outside.
The numerous easily accessible compartments offer just the right storage
space for your kitchen utensils, from dishes and cutlery to pots and pans.
The 95-litre compressor-type refrigerator is located under the counter top
within easy reach. (Amundsen 600 D and Amundsen 640 E). By the way: In
both models you can choose to have the refrigerator placed on the counter
top to gain an additional storage compartment.
Sophisticated and perfectly designed.
In the Amundsen 540 the refrigerator is
located at the front end of the kitchen block.
Functionality in its most attractive form
– the kitchen in the new Amundsen
is a true masterpiece, and not only as
regards its looks.

MORE THAN JUST A SPACE TO SLEEP
Westfalia motorhomes will first delight you and secondly convince
you. Experience the passion that goes into building our motorhomes
every day you are on the road in one of our vehicles.
Just take a look at the sleeping area in the new Westfalia Amundsen.
Depending on the floor plan, you can choose between a rear double bed
and two single beds. The Amundsen 540 D and 600 D with a rear double
bed mounted transversely to the direction of travel offers a sleeping space
of 140 x 197 cm (Amundsen 540 D 130 (110) x 197 cm). In the Amundsen
640 E two single beds with 75 x 2090 cm and 75 x (185) invite you to relax.
You can create a large 197 x 185 / 200 cm double bed simply by closing the
gap between the two single beds with inserts.
01.

03.
As a matter of course both bed types are equipped with a well thought-out
spring system in the comfort zones so that you can thoroughly relax and
enjoy your leisure time after a good night's rest.
Big windows and several LED spots make for
a bright and inviting atmosphere.
The flexible bed construction also makes it
easy to transport large mountainbikes.
The spring system in the comfort zones together with the high-quality mattresses mean
you sleep well and wake up completely
relaxed. The Froli spring system is exclusively
available in the 540 D.
Relaxation is what it’s all about. What
style of bed you prefer is up to you.
In the Amundsen series you have the
option of two different bedroom styles,
you can choose a rear double bed as well
as two single beds.

DESIGN & FUNCTIONALITY IN HARMONY
The bathroom – just as all the other functional areas – has been completely remodelled. The result is a new standard when it comes to
combining space, function and form. The full shower, the appealing
mirror cabinet, the washbasin – all areas have been linked in such a
way that you can refresh yourself in comfort without feeling crowded.
Numerous storage surfaces and hooks contribute to the bathroom’s tidy
look – even after it has been used. The skylight (Amundsen 600 D and
640 E) not only admits sunlight but also serves to ventilate the air from the
bathroom to the outside.
01.
The Amundsen models are equipped with a
complete bathroom meaning that the shower
is completely integrated into the bathroom area.
02.
The mixer tap is of the same quality you would
expect at home It is a real optical highlight but it
is also very durable in daily use.
It is all these small details that make
the difference. Only people who are
enthusiastic about their product – like
our employees – can make a product for
enthusiastic customers like you. This is
why we talk about the Westfalia class.

SOLUTIONS
Amundsen 540 D
Amundsen 540 D, 1 & 2 sleeping places
There is so much more to building a motorhome than just stringing
together different functional areas. It is the comprehensive solution
that has to be convincing. For this reason our engineers do not settle
for simply using well-known solutions.
In many cases it is about breaking new ground. Take the heating
system in the new Amundsen for example. The new and powerful
Truma 4 kW Combi hot air heating system is making its first appearance at Westfalia. This involves hot air heating.
It is important for this system to install the air ducts in a sensible and reliable
way. We could easily have placed the heating system in the rear or in the
wardrobe like almost all our competitors. However, we are convinced that
placing the heating system in the middle of the vehicle and underneath the
bench is best as regards heating demand and noise control. This new Westfalia ‘Center of the Car’ concept not only gave superior test results, but the
Truma manufacturer’s employees were also impressed by the new solution
developed by Westfalia. Most importantly you – our customers – will benefit
from this every day. This is ultimately what motivates us.

This is the Westfalia class!
You will have seen the expression ‘Westfalia class’ in this catalogue
a number of times. You will see that this expression is so much more
than just a marketing claim when you take the time to take a closer
look at a Westfalia.
It is the choice of materials that captivates at first sight and convinces at
second sight thanks to their durability. It is the workmanship where Westfalia
sets standards. As a partner of the automotive industry we are used to meet
the tolerances of car manufacturers; this is why we talk more frequently in µm
than in cm in our vehicles.

Quality you can see at first glance.
Westfalia class - visible even in the
smallest details!
The sophisticated lighting concept ensures a
permanent ambience of well-being in the
vehicle. Luxurious and practical: the spotlights
are integrated into the furniture elements.
04.
A real innovation – the outside storage compartment flap of the new Amundsen 540 D.
It is the quality with which each vehicle is built here in Wiedenbrück: craftmanship matched with innovative manufacturing processes.
It is the readiness to innovate that makes each Westfalia motorhome a milestone in its respective vehicle class. New solutions and trendsetting constructions that are available exclusively at Westfalia.
For more than 60 years Westfalia has
been converting vans into motor
ho-
mes. A rich experience for your benefit.
