The best campervans: the winners of the Out & About Live Campervan Awards 2025

The best campervans of 2025 have been announced. 

The Out & About Live Campervan Awards have returned for another year, in association with Creation Personal Finance.

To find the standout ’vans, our team of expert judges visited many campervan shows at home and abroad, including the huge Caravan Salon in Düsseldorf and the NEC show in Birmingham. We went to new model launches around the UK and Europe, and invited converters to a two-day campervan preview event in Lincolnshire. 

Now, after months of deliberation, the judges’ votes are in and it’s time to celebrate the best of the best. You’ll find all the winners listed below and you can click on the links to discover why they won and how they will improve your vanlife.
