MOTORHOMES 2018 BUILT FOR LIFE

MOTORHOMES 2018 BUILT FOR LIFE

1967 The trained shipbuilding engineer Harald Striewski founds his company at the age of 30. Harald Striewski builds the first caravans 2 years before the Hobby caravan factory in Fockbek is even founded. He sells two of them immediately and uses the third to go travelling with his family. 1968 The young company grows and moves to a new location. Four members of staff are now employed at the new company premises covering 10,855 square metres on Schafredder in Fockbek. 1970 Hobby had already achieved its original aim of building one caravan per day in 1969. One year later, 42 employees produce six caravans each day. IT S BEEN GREAT... AND IT S GOING TO GET EVEN BETTER It all started with a groundbreaking idea. Today, Hobby is renowned as a pioneer of modern caravans and motorhomes. For 50 years, we have sought to make mobile travel easier, more comfortable and more relaxing. Each new generation of Hobby motorhomes is notable for its superb standard equipment, spacious design, quality and functionality. Our secret to success is rooted in four main elements: ground-breaking inventions, innovative technology, modern design and lots of passion. No wonder that Hobby motorhomes are as popular as they are. 2006 Hobby has a new address: Harald-Striewski-Straße. Fockbek honours the successful entrepreneur for his services to the community. 2007 German Chancellor Angela Merkel and the Minister President of Schleswig-Holstein Peter Harry Carstensen pay a visit to Hobby in Fockbek. 2009 The half a million mark is reached: in Fockbek, the 500,000 th Hobby caravan rolls off the production line an Excellent 495 UL. 2

1972 With an expanding model range, the numbers are also rising: 5,000 caravans have now rolled off the production line in Fockbek, made by 132 employees. 1983 Hobby is the caravan market leader in Germany and also becomes the number one throughout Europe one year later. A caravan rolls off the production line every nine minutes in Fockbek. 1984 The Hobby 600 is the brand s first motorhome and also marks the start of an unparalleled success story: the semi-integrated wins the title of Motorhome of the Year fifteen times! 1989 The interior of the Hobby 600 is reminiscent of the interior design of luxury yachts and contributes to the distinctive character of the sleek semi-integrated vehicle. Customers can choose between various layout options. 1998 Hobby acquires the caravan and motorhome division of Xaver Fendt GmbH & Co. in Asbach-Bäumenheim (Bavaria). It is operated as a wholly-owned Hobby subsidiary under the name Fendt Caravan GmbH. 2011 The Hobby 600 prototype presented by Harald Striewski impresses fans and the trade press and one year later serves as the model for the new and luxurious Premium range. 2014 The Vantana van celebrates its launch and wins the European Innovation Award three years later with its unique SlimLine refrigerator. 2016 Launch of the Hobby Complete ALL-INCLUSIVE package for the Optima and Siesta: Hobby supplies fully equipped motorhomes that come ready to hit the road without any supplementary packs or hidden costs. 2017 Motorhoming summit: On her second visit to the Hobby caravan factory, German Chancellor Angela Merkel congratulated Hobby boss Harald Striewski on the company s 50 th anniversary. 2017 Hobby celebrates its 50th anniversary with the ultimate street party and a spectacular laser show. The event with 40,000 guests is a gift from company founder Harald Striewski to all Hobby employees and their families. 50 YEARS OF HOBBY 3

Other CI- BUS-capable on-board components such as heating and air conditioning can also be centrally controlled. The system is standardised and updateable, thus ensuring compatibility with next-generation devices. To date, up to 15 devices can already communicate with the control panel.

All values can be read off from the TFT control panel. The battery sensor supplies the intelligent charger with the exact charging current and voltage it needs, thereby ensuring energy-efficient charging up to 100 percent capacity. With this system, charging times are reduced by approx. 30% by comparison with conventional chargers. HobbyConnect ready More information on page 72. Insulated, heated waste water tank The waste water tank on all Hobby motorhomes is installed under the floor and housed in a shatter-proof and heated insulation box. The slide valve for the used water is located in the heated part of the waste water tank so that frost doesn t get a look-in. 66
