2.5.2 Hymer T-SL
All the Hymer T-SL models come with the very elegant camping body of 2.18 m inside
width, featuring curved contours, thicker elements (walls 35 mm, floor 46 mm), the
re-styled semi-alcove and the dynamic design of the fender from the Van range. The
individual shape of the windows blends perfectly into the overall picture. The driver’s
cabin in all the T-SL models is in white and the camping body has a silver paint finish
as standard. An all-silver paint finish is available as an optional extra. This range also
has the wider skirting all the way round, discreetly concealing the underside from view.
The new rear section also strikes an attractive note with spoiler, integrated third brake
light and a rear light moulding presenting the function lamps with separate reverse light
as a double-arched unit. In this range the customer can also order a parking assistant
with an audible and visual distance warning system (as generally used in motorcars) as
an optional extra.
The Hymer T-SL models are offered with Fiat, Renault and Mercedes chassis. The
vehicles with Fiat chassis are identified by the last figures 4 or 8 in their numerical
designation, those with Renault by 6 and the model with Mercedes by 5. The driver’s
cabin of this chassis is significantly more generous than that of its predecessor and is
equipped with club seats as standard.
The five models Hymer T 574 SL, Hymer T 578 SL, Hymer T 654 SL, Hymer T 664 SL
and Hymer T 674 SL come with the new Fiat chassis. This range has the Ducato 35
light chassis, 2.3 M-Jet engine (130 HP), a maximum permitted laden mass of 3.5 tons
and 15-inch tyres as standard. A 3.0 M-Jet engine with 157 HP will be optionally
available shortly. The Fiat Ducato 35 heavy chassis with a maximum permitted laden
mass of 3.5 tons and 16-inch tyres or the Fiat Ducato 40 heavy chassis with a
maximum permitted laden mass of four tons and 16-inch tyres are optionally available.
The new Fiat chassis is equipped with ABS and TCS as standard. Driver air bag,
power windows and central locking in the driver’s cabin belong to the standard
features; the passenger air bag is optional.
