Bailey has unveiled its new five-model Ascent range, with motorhomes from the line-up set to debut at the Motorhome and Caravan Show next week.

Each ‘van can be driven on a standard licence, and come with Truma CombiNeo, a cab which is kitted out with air conditioning, a 12″ touchscreen, and cruise control, and a spec which includes a 200-watt Truma solar panel, a 150Ah lithium leisure battery, a Thetford 150L compressor tower fridge, and an 8-speed automatic gearbox.

These are all motorhomes with a garage of some kind too.

For fans of a rear lounge motorhome, there is the 64-2, a ‘van with a length of 6.45m and a payload of 618kg. Priced at £79,799, it features an electrically operated drop-down bed.

The other models in the range all have four berths, including the Ascent 69-4. Priced at £81,999 and coming with a length of 6.98m and payload of 429kg, the ‘van has parallel seating in the front lounge, which in the evening, can be converted into a large double bed, with a further electrically operated drop-down double bed overhead. At the rear of the motorhome, a washroom can be found which includes access to the garage and a shower cubicle.

The 69-4TS comes to £82,999, is 6.98m long, and has a payload of 417kg. It also features a front lounge where a double bed can be made up, but this time, it comes with electrically operated drop-down single beds overhead.

The 75-4DL (£83,999) has a length of 7.49m, a payload of 340kg and could appeal to those who like a rear lounge layout but want four-berths. In the C-shaped rear lounge, motorhomers will be able to make the most of an electrically operated drop-down double bed, with another found in the front lounge too.

The final model in the range is the 75-4T (£82,949), which is 7.49m long and has a payload of 344kg. It comes with rear fixed single beds, while the front lounge can be converted a double bed.

The Ascents are set to be joined in debuting at the NEC Show next week by the new Adventure Coachbuilts range from Auto-Trail. Coming on a Peugeot Boxer, the range of overcab ‘vans are all four-berths.
