Mobilvetta Admiral K6.3 2025

The Mobilvetta Admiral K6.3 is the first camper from the Italian brand. The Italian brand is known for producing luxurious A-classes, with its popular K-Yacht range inspired by nautical design.

How easily would this translate into a campervan? On first impressions, when I went to view the K6.3 at Marquis Leisure’s Lancashire branch, I’d say well.

Cab and dinette in the Mobilvetta Admiral

With the vehicle kitted out in black, you get a standard Fiat Ducato cab, among the best vans for converting to a camper, and it includes an eight-speed automatic gearbox.

There’s a host of features designed to make driving less stressful, including cruise control, traction plus, electronic stability control, a rear-view camera and cab air conditioning.

But it’s perhaps only after you have swivelled the cab seats, and come into the front dinette, that the similarities with other Mobilvettas are apparent. I noticed the same high-gloss finish on the lockers, and a fetching striped floor throughout. There’s no getting away from this camper’s style, one of the features which saw it shortlisted at the Practical Motorhome Awards 2025 for the best luxury campervan category.

The clip-on table in front of the two travel seats in the bench at the back is particularly innovative too. Not only does it have drinks holders, but it folds, so you shouldn’t have to squeeze in. It also has a thin extension that swings out, so even the person in the driving seat has a place to dine.

This whole front dinette is heated by two vents from the Truma Combi 4 diesel heating system. It’s well lit, too, which can be an important feature in the best campervans – after all, you’re going to want to have a comfortable space for relaxing in.

During the day, the area is lit by the sunroof, the Heki and the large windows, and at night by a striplight under the locker, ambient lighting and a light next to each cab seat.

A mains and aerial socket behind the bench means a TV set could easily be viewed by anyone in the cab seats.

The kitchen in the Mobilvetta Admiral K6.3

If you think the table is innovative, take a look at the kitchen. At first glance, you might wonder where the sink is. Has Mobilvetta dispensed with the need for one? No – just unclasp the catch at the back of the unit and slide out the moulded extension.

You also get a chopping board that doubles up as a sink cover, making a huge workspace for a ’van that is only 6.36m long. However, I do think it’s a shame that the only mains socket is at the other end of the kitchen, the other side of the two-burner hob.

The kitchen includes an 84-litre compressor fridge and a combined oven and grill (unusual in a Continental ’van). You might have a bit of squeeze to reach the oven, however, because the gangway to the back, between the washroom and the kitchen, narrows to just 45cm at one point.

The washroom in the Mobilvetta Admiral

Knowing what you want in the washroom can be an important factor when choosing a ‘van, whether it’s a campervan or a motorhome.

Here, the washroom has a stylish door handle, a basin in front of a large lit mirror, and more mirrors on all sides at the top.

Light comes through an opaque window and from LEDs, and you open the shower by swinging out a partition that clips firmly (no flimsy plastic catches here) and unravelling the shower hose from its cubbyhole behind the partition. I did think the headroom wasn’t great, but there is a small roof vent.

Sleeping in the Mobilvetta Admiral K6.3

My test model came with a double bed at the back – very comfortable if you are under 6ft – with swan-neck reading lights, a Heki and striplights underneath the lockers.

Storage in the Mobilvetta Admiral K6.3

Storage will always be an important consideration, giving you that valuable extra room for storing those must-have motorhome upgrades.

You can opt for two single beds here, and I think I would, because of the storage options. The double lifts in the middle to provide a space for large items (once you have removed the support struts); that aside, there is only one little cupboard under here and a small chest. The single bed might mean less space for bikes, but you’d get more storage – and longer beds.

There are six overhead lockers back here, none of them particularly large, and there’s only one in the lounge.

You also get a cubbyhole under the table and a tiny drawer in the step. There is a half-height wardrobe under the fridge, but the narrow gangway makes it quite awkward to reach.

The sliding kitchen extension has plenty of space for dry food storage, but it’s not clear how easy it would be to store large pans here. Otherwise, the overhead locker is only average, and the space under the oven is taken up with a cutlery drawer.

Alternatives to consider

The Mercedes Sprinter-based Malibu Genius 641 LE was our pick of the luxurious campers at the Practical Motorhome Awards 2025 and offers a very well-thought-out design.

Alternatively, you could look at the Ford Transit-based WildAx Meteor – it features a comfortable lounge and a well-planned interior design.
