A luxury German motorhome has claimed the coveted Red Dot Award for its “captivating design”.

The Niesmann+Bischoff Arto impressed the jury of experts and managed to fend off competition from thousands of entrants from all over the world to claim the accolade.

It is a huge coup for the brand which was recognised for trying a different approach when putting this model together.

The Arto managed to scoop the Red Dot Award thanks to its smooth and streamlined structure, unique colour combinations, high-quality workmanship and a panoramic window which provides “an excellent uninterrupted view”.

Hubert Brandl, managing director from Niesmann and Bischoff GmbH, said: “This is an outstanding award and a further confirmation that the Arto’s new and unusual design is the symbol of a completely new generation camper.”

The award-winning Arto is currently available from Travelworld Motorhomes, Niesmann and Bischoff’s exclusive UK dealer, with prices starting from around £70,000.

Nick Barker from Travelworld said: “The design is something we go on and on about, but when you see them side-by-side with other motorhomes the difference is noticeably impressive.

“Niesmann has bought into the same automotive styling concept as the new Fords and the new Range Rovers.

“Everybody wants something that’s distinctive – bland is not the name of the game anymore for motorhomes.

“We hope to see this design spread across the other Niesmann+Bischoff ranges as it brings an immediate kerb appeal and desire.”
