Swift ditches overcabs on Ford-based Voyagers as Fiat-based Kon-tiki range has a facelift

Swift has dropped the 400 overcab series within its popular Voyager range for the 2027 season, and has given its flagship Fiat-based Kon-tiki range a new look.

Starting from the new season the company is also fitting all its motorhomes with Roamer lithium leisure batteries.

Swift said it wanted to focus its efforts on the low-profile 500 series within the Voyager range, which now consists of six low-profile models ranging from two- to four-berths. The 584 (a motorhome with fixed single beds) and 594 (an island bed ‘van) have proved to be the most popular.

The exteriors of this season’s Voyager models have been enhanced with black skirting, while a concerted effort has been made to make sure that no sealant is visible.

Inside, a microwave is now standard, while there are new locker doors with handles, new light fittings, and new cab carpets.

Take a look at our reviews of the 2026 Voyager 505 and 564 to see how the 2027 models differ.

The seven models in this season’s Kon-tiki range, meanwhile, come with a new awning, new framed window, a new design of garage that is lower for easier loading, and new exterior graphics.

Inside there is a new style overhead kitchen locker with an integrated extractor fan, and a new kitchen splashback. There are now seven models in the range, including the new 740, a four-berth with an end washroom.

The Escape range is being retained for 2027, and now consists of three models. All are two-berths as standard although two of the models – the fixed single beds 684 and island bed 694 – as an option can come as four-berths. They all have an expedition grey exterior with refreshed graphics.

The Swift Trekker motorhome range, meanwhile, stays largely the same as last year, although three models in the range, the 540, 584 and the 594, have been joined by the new 505, a two-berth with an end washroom.
