Living in the Globebus Performance

Living

The interior feels spacious and inviting. The high-quality insulation and standard 6,000 W diesel heater keep things warm and cosy – even in freezing conditions.

  • Modern living

    The warm wood decor, combined with anthracite felt-look accents, brings a touch of modern comfort to the living room. The streamlined overhead locker doors – without visible handles – add to the contemporary, uncluttered aesthetic.

    (T 46 | SAROS)

  • Spacious living in a compact format

    The T 16 is only 625 cm long, but is all the more astonishing with its ample space and freedom of movement. The half-height fridge also contributes to this, opening up the line of sight into the bedroom.

    The Light Moments ambient lighting is responsible for the special lighting mood in the evening, with many direct and indirect light sources for special feel-good moments (option).

    (T16 | Saros)

  • Sporty, elegant interior design

    The light part-leather HERON upholstery lends the interior a distinctly modern and refined feel.

  • Create extra space in a jiffy

    The table features a practical swivel section which, when extended, allows the passenger seat to “take its place” at the table. While on the move, the additional tabletop slides away neatly beneath the main table.

  • Connectivity at its best

    The 32-inch smart TV comes as standard and can be extended and swivelled using a telescopic mount. As a true smart TV, it offers a host of extra features – from recording films onto a USB stick to mirroring your smartphone screen on the TV. Thanks to the standard 5G Wi-Fi router, you can enjoy smooth streaming of hundreds of TV channels, YouTube videos and much more.

Sleeping

  • The key to a perfect night’s sleep

    Two comfortable single beds (left: 2.02 m x 0.8 m, right: 1.92 m x 0.75 m), each with a wooden slatted bed frame and a 15 cm-thick EvoPore mattress, ensure exceptional comfort while sleeping.
    The single beds can be quickly transformed into one large sleeping area spanning the full width of the vehicle – simply pull out the slatted frame between the beds and insert the extra cushion, which is supplied as standard. The resulting “double bed” can easily accommodate two adults and a child.

    (T 46)

  • Wardrobes with plenty of space

    Two illuminated wardrobes provide ample space for all your personal travel items. Blouses, shirts and jackets can be neatly hung on hangers – keeping them crease-free and ready to wear.

    (T 46)

  • Less vehicle length with the transverse bed

    The spacious transverse bed in the T 16 makes particularly efficient use of the space and still impresses with its generous sleeping area of 198 x 142/130 cm
    Windows on the left and right and a skylight ensure optimum ventilation.

    The ambient lighting carefully recessed into the rear wall and the illuminated open compartment create a beautiful lighting atmosphere in the evening.

    (T 16)

  • There's plenty of room in there

    The illuminated wardrobe under the transverse bed is equipped with a clothes rail so that jackets, shirts and blouses can be transported hanging and thus crease-free. The cupboard is so big that you can fit a lot more in here: Shoes, bathrobes, the big beach towels - you can surely think of plenty of other things...

    (T 16)

  • A recipe for restful sleep

    The 15 cm-thick 7-zone cold foam mattresses, made from climate-regulating materials, are among the best you could wish for in terms of comfort. Paired with ergonomic wooden slatted bed frames, they are part of a well-designed sleep system that ensures a great night’s rest.

    (only T 46)

  • USB-C charging ports

    Charge your phone and other devices overnight using the two USB-C charging ports on the rear wall.

Bathroom

  • A real shower room

    The bathroom in the Globebus Performance 4x4 features a clever swivel wall: when rotated, it transforms the bathroom into a fully enclosed, plastic-lined shower cubicle. Everything else you need is there, too: a large sink, plenty of storage space and a generously sized mirror – all complemented by pleasant ambient lighting.

  • Flexibility thanks to swivel wall

    To transform the bathroom into a shower cubicle, simply swivel the back panel round.

    There is plenty of usable storage space in the large bathroom cabinet. Two tooth brush holders are also already available.

    Image 2/3

  • A proper shower cubicle

    By simply swivelling the rear wall, the bathroom transforms into a fully enclosed, plastic-lined shower cubicle with its own shower fitting and plenty of elbow room.

    Image 3/3

  • Waterless toilet with sealed sanitary bags (option)

    A waterless Clesana toilet can be factory-fitted upon request. Disposal of the sealed collection bags is clean, convenient, germ-free and completely odourless. This system uses no water or chemical additives. (Available from October 2025. Please contact your Dethleffs dealer)

  • Everything in view

    The full-length mirror on the outside of the bathroom wall makes the space feel larger and is perfect for doing your hair or a quick outfit check.

Cooking

The Globebus Performance 4x4 models are always fitted with compressor fridges. These work with electricity and are extremely energy-efficient. The compressor technology has a number of advantages: the fridge only needs a short time to reach the desired cooling temperature and maintains this temperature even at high outside temperatures or if the vehicle is slightly askew.
 

  • COOKING – Compact but clever

    The kitchen offers plenty of storage and shelf space, with a handy fold-out worktop extension for extra prep room. In the evening, the ambient lighting on the rear panel creates a warm, inviting atmosphere.

    (T 46)

  • Plenty of storage space

    The overhead kitchen lockers offer plenty of space for crockery and utensils and, thanks to the soft-close mechanism, they close gently and silently.

    (T 46)

  • Additional storage space

    All three drawers are easy to access and provide ample space – including the cutlery drawer at the top. The adjacent cupboard is perfect for bulkier items and even comes with a built-in waste bin.

    (T 46)

  • 131 l compressor fridge

    The 131-litre compressor fridge (T 46 only) offers impressive capacity – including a 15-litre freezer compartment, perfect for bringing home a little “gelato”.
    A 83-litre compressor fridge with a 10-litre freezer compartment is fitted as standard.

    (T 46)

  • Ready for new cooking ideas

    The kitchen in the T 16 is also fully equipped with a 2-burner gas hob with electric ignition, sink with hot water supply and plenty of storage space - in the kitchen unit and in the overhead kitchen cupboard.

    There is a worktop extension for more work surface. Thanks to the solid folding mechanism, you can work without having to worry about stability.

    (T 16)

  • Cool idea

    The 83-litre compressor fridge with 10-litre freezer is positioned halfway up. This means that you can access the contents comfortably and yet there is an open visual axis that supports the spaciousness.

    The space above the fridge is ideal for placing a coffee machine. A 230 V power connection is located on the rear wall.

    (T 16)

  • Keep two pots on the boil

    The twin burners on the gas hob are spaced far enough apart to be used comfortably at the same time. The sturdy pan supports ensure stability, while electric ignition adds convenience.

  • Multiflex rail system

    The Multiflex rail system is a flexible mounting solution for all your kitchen essentials. A range of practical accessories is available from Dethleffs Original Accessories – including a spice rack, tea towel rail, kitchen roll holder and much more.

  • Roof fan for quick air circulation

    An electric roof fan is fitted as standard above the kitchen. Depending on the setting, it either draws fresh air into the vehicle or extracts air. This means cooking odours can be vented directly outside, and on hot days, it creates a pleasant cooling breeze. Multiple speed settings are available – on the lowest setting, the fan is whisper-quiet, making it perfect for gentle overnight ventilation.

Specification

1
  • All-wheel drive
    The 4x4 chassis ensures confident handling, even off the beaten track. The complete package includes air suspension on the rear axle, a raised ride height, a reinforced front axle (2.1 t) and a differential lock. The result is outstanding traction and ride comfort on any terrain.
  • 70 cm-wide habitation door
    A practical highlight inspired by everyday use: how often do you enter and exit the vehicle each day? The 70 cm-wide habitation door makes this effortless – even when carrying luggage.
    The fly-screen blind and window with integrated blackout blind are standard on all variants. The habitation door is also connected to the cab’s central locking system and can be locked or unlocked using the vehicle key.
  • Large rear garages with access from both sides and new, smooth-running twist/quick-release latches. Practical storage compartments keep things neat and tidy. Up to three wall-mounted storage pouches can be added on request, providing extra space for your essentials. They can be loaded up at home and simply hooked into place once on board.
  • Depending on the model, you can order a 3.5 m long (T 16) or a 4.0 m long awning (T 46). Both have integrated LED lighting along their entire length, which looks very nice in the evening - not to mention the practical benefits.
  • 5G Wi-Fi router
    Your gateway to the web: the standard Wi-Fi router is neatly integrated into the overhead locker above the seating lounge. It delivers ultra-fast data transfer – whether you’re streaming videos, uploading holiday photos or working on the go.
  • SCU lite – your central control hub
    Conveniently located above the door, the SCU lite panel gives you access to all essential vehicle data and lets you control on-board systems like the lighting, heating and even the fridge. And best of all: these functions can also be operated remotely via the Dethleffs Connect app on your smartphone.
  • The open shelves above the cab provide space for all those essentials you need to keep close to hand – even while driving.
  • A car-like driving experience
    The VW Crafter cab is clean, modern and feels just like driving a premium car. This impression is reinforced by the vehicle’s impressive driving performance and handling. Advanced assistance systems come as standard, including Intelligent Speed Assist, Travel Lane Assist, and hill start/descent control.
    Powerful, smooth acceleration is delivered by the 2.0 l TDI SCR engine (163 hp / 120 kW) paired with a standard 8-speed automatic transmission.
  • AirCare Climatronic
    The advanced climate control system ensures a pleasant temperature in the cab at all times – helping to make your journey more relaxed and, as a result, safer.
  • Electronic parking brake
    The electronic parking brake replaces the traditional handbrake lever, freeing up space in the cab – especially handy when swivelling the seats.
    The included “Auto Hold” function makes hill starts effortless.
  • 12-inch Naviceiver
    The “Discover Pro” radio and navigation system with a 12-inch display comes as standard
  • Air suspension on the rear axle
    The air pressure – and with it, the damping performance and ground clearance – can be individually adjusted for the left and right rear wheels, depending on the load or road conditions.
  • Water filter
    The Grünbeck water filter guarantees clean water, no matter where you fill up your fresh-water tank (Dethleffs Original Accessories).
