If you have been dreaming of hitting the open road with all the comforts of home in tow but without the hassle of maneuvering a massive vehicle, it’s time to meet your new travel partner: the FRANKIA NOW.
And with the first model now in stock in NZ (sporting the sleek and sunny “SUN” color scheme), the time is now to experience the best of FRANKIA, right here at home.
Compact yet incredibly well-equipped, this 7.05-meter motorhome has arrived to redefine what luxury and freedom mean on four wheels. The Frankia NOW blends top-tier German engineering with innovative design to deliver a motorhome that’s practical for New Zealand roads yet indulgent enough for serious travelers.
Let’s dive into what makes this new model so special.
Compact Without Compromise
At just 7.05 meters in length, the Frankia NOW is proof that size isn’t everything. Despite its compact frame, it comfortably accommodates four sleeping berths, making it ideal for couples, friends, or small families looking to explore Aotearoa’s epic landscapes without sacrificing living space or features.
Whether you are wild camping on the coast or parked up at a lakeside retreat, the FRANKIA NOW’s smart layout ensures maximum comfort, convenience, and flexibility.
Power, Performance, and Smooth Driving
Built on a robust base with a 180 HP engine and automatic transmission, the Frankia NOW delivers smooth, confident performance wherever your journey takes you from winding alpine passes to the long, rolling highways of the South Island.
Comfort continues inside the cabin, where automatic air conditioning, a wireless smartphone charging station, and a full digital dashboard cluster ensure your drive is as enjoyable as your destination. A 10-inch multimedia display keeps you connected, entertained, and on course, whether you are navigating city streets or remote countryside roads.

High-End Living, Inside and Out
What truly sets the Frankia NOW apart is how many luxury features it packs into its compact frame. The attention to detail is astounding, with smart storage, intuitive layouts, and a clean, modern design aesthetic throughout.

Let’s talk features — and there’s plenty to get excited about:
- Electric drop-down bed for easy transition from day to night
- Built-in Thetford oven with grill — perfect for cooking a roast or pizza on the go
- Skylight with ventilator in the kitchen area for fresh air while cooking
- 22″ Smart TV so you can wind down with your favourite shows after a long day exploring
You’ll also love the large 138-liter compressor fridge, ensuring your groceries stay fresh on the road, and the generous 130-liter freshwater tank (with 95-liter grey water capacity), giving you the confidence to go off-grid for longer.
And with the 4-meter awning with built-in LED lighting, your outdoor space becomes an extension of your living area ideal for those golden-hour BBQs or lazy afternoons reading in the shade.
Solar-Powered Freedom
Off-grid living is no longer a dream with the Frankia NOW. This model comes equipped with two 125-watt solar panels and two 150Ah lithium batteries, giving you genuine energy independence.
Whether you are staying at a powered site or heading into remote areas, these solar upgrades let you enjoy the full range of the motorhome’s features without constantly relying on camp power. It’s the ultimate way to travel more freely, more sustainably, and more self-sufficiently.
Add to that an outside shower, storage drawer, and an extended socket package (with extra 230V and USB outlets), and you a are set up for comfort wherever you park.

Designed With Style in Mind
Style doesn’t take a back seat in the FRANKIA NOW. All three stunning interior colour schemes – SUN, OCEAN, and PEACH – are already on order for NZ. The first vehicle to arrive will feature the warm, modern SUN palette, combining light tones and natural textures that create a bright, welcoming space.
These interiors are not just about good looks, they are designed for real living. Clean lines, premium materials, and thoughtful design make every inch feel open, organized, and luxurious.

A Serious Investment in Lifestyle
With a list price of $229,900, the Frankia NOW sits at the premium end of the motorhome spectrum, but it more than justifies the investment.
When you consider the high-spec features, solar setup, lithium battery system, quality materials, and premium appliances, it becomes clear this is no ordinary compact camper. It’s a luxury lifestyle on wheels perfect for adventurers who want more freedom, more comfort, and less compromise.
