Mooveo is Groupe Pilote's budget motorhome brand, offering streamlined specification and competitive pricing while benefiting from the same manufacturing standards as the group's premium brands. Built in Groupe Pilote factories on Fiat Ducato chassis.
The range includes:
Semi-integrated low-profile models and camper vans, with specific models including:
The Vario 600 — entry-level model with all essential features for comfortable touring.
The Vario 700 — enhanced amenity level for those seeking more comfort.
Additional models cover campervan and larger motorhome formats. Options that would be charged separately on premium brands are included in the Mooveo price, delivering an unbeatable price-performance ratio.
All models are available with automatic transmission and benefit from Groupe Pilote's proven construction methods.
The Mooveo brand was created in 2006 as part of Groupe Pilote, designed to fulfil desires for travel and adventure at accessible pricing. Mooveo's stated goal was to create a budget segment brand competing with the likes of Challenger and Sunlight.
The brand had a hiatus — in 2014, Groupe Pilote stopped producing Mooveo to focus on the Pilote and Bavaria brands. However, the brand was subsequently revived, with Pilote investing approximately €20 million in production plants at Nantes and Angers to conquer the economical motorhome market.
Within the Groupe Pilote family, Mooveo sits alongside Pilote (flagship), Frankia (premium German), Le Voyageur (luxury French), Bavaria (design-led) and Hanroad (van conversions). Mooveo occupies the entry-level position, providing Groupe Pilote quality at the most accessible price point.
Groupe Pilote quality at budget prices — built in the same factories as Pilote motorhomes, Mooveo delivers group-level construction quality at entry-level pricing.
All-inclusive pricing — options that competitors charge separately are included in the Mooveo base price, simplifying the buying decision.
€20 million factory investment — Groupe Pilote's significant investment in Mooveo production facilities demonstrates long-term commitment to the budget segment.
Proven Pilote engineering — the motorhomes do not differ significantly from other Groupe Pilote products in construction quality, both externally and internally.
If you want Groupe Pilote quality on a budget — same factories, same construction methods, but at entry-level pricing.
If you want transparent pricing — Mooveo's all-inclusive approach means fewer surprise extras at the point of sale.
If you want to step up from a caravan — Mooveo offers an affordable entry into motorhoming from a respected manufacturer.
Brand discontinuity — the 2014 hiatus and subsequent revival may create gaps in parts availability and dealer knowledge for early models.
Very limited UK presence — Mooveo has minimal UK dealer representation.
Budget specification — entry-level materials and fittings reflect the competitive pricing.
Low brand awareness — Mooveo is not well-known in the UK market.
Predominantly LHD — most production is left-hand drive.
Identify production era — pre-2014, or post-relaunch. The hiatus may affect parts availability for early models.
Check the Fiat Ducato base vehicle — cam belt, clutch, gearbox as standard.
Conduct thorough damp check — check all walls, windows, doors and rooflights.
Inspect budget-level fittings — entry-level components may show wear. Check hinges, catches and furnishings.
Test all systems — heating, water, fridge, electrical circuits.
Mooveo provides manufacturer warranty through Groupe Pilote. Post-relaunch models benefit from significant factory investment and updated production processes.
An independent warranty backed by the RAC is recommended for used Mooveo purchases.
OakTree Motorhomes offer up to three years of RAC-backed warranty, providing essential protection on a budget motorhome.
When buying a used Mooveo, look for a dealer that offers an independent warranty backed by a provider like the RAC. This means your warranty remains valid even if the dealer ceases trading. OakTree Motorhomes offer up to three years of RAC-backed warranty, covering the average ownership period.
