At last year's Caravan Salon 2026, we got a close look at the Fendt Bianco Activ 560 SKM. The impressions from the show stand reveal a coherent overall concept: with this model, Fendt-Caravan is targeting families looking for a generously sized floor plan with a classic room layout. The single-axle caravan combines a fixed double bed for the parents, a bunk bed for the kids, and a convertible central seating area, adding up to five berths in total.
Dimensions and weight data
With a total length of 7.72 m (body length: 6.57 m, usable length: 5.76 m) and a total width of 2.50 m, the Fendt Bianco Activ 560 SKM delivers a noticeably spacious feel. Maximum height is 2.66 m, with 1.98 m of standing height inside. The awning rail measurement varies between 1,029 cm and 1,039 cm depending on the weight or chassis variant.
The model comes standard with a technically permissible gross weight of 1,800 kg. With a ready-to-drive weight of around 1,495 kg (tolerance range 1,420 to 1,570 kg), that leaves a calculated payload of roughly 305 kg. If you need more headroom, you can opt for a weight upgrade to 1,900 kg or 2,000 kg straight from the factory.
Chassis and body
For the chassis, Fendt relies on proven AL-KO technology. Standard equipment includes a fully galvanized lightweight system chassis with Euro axle system, the self-adjusting AL-KO AAA brake, and the AKS 3004 safety coupling. Galvanized stabilizer jacks with extended crank supports, plus a jockey wheel with load indicator, ensure a stable stance and easy handling.
On the road, the caravan rolls on 205/70 R 15 C low-profile tires fitted to black polished alloy wheels, with a white overrun device and drawbar cover. A 100 km/h type approval is already included as standard.
The body is built using a sturdy sandwich construction with 31 mm wall thickness, 39 mm roof thickness and 47 mm floor thickness, with LFI technology used in parts of the front section. The gas bottle locker lid opens smoothly thanks to gas-pressure struts and closes with a three-point lock. An exterior storage flap, tinted double-glazed pivot windows with combi pleated blinds (insect screen and blackout) and a dual-switch LED awning light round off the exterior.
Floor plan and living space
The interior comes in a warm "Salvador Oak" furniture finish, paired with either the "Pineto" or "Savio" upholstery fabric. The layout is built entirely around what families need, flowing smoothly between different living zones.
The sleeping area for the parents sits in the front section. The French bed offers plenty of room with a sleeping surface of 1.40 m x 2.00 m. It comes with a high-quality pocket-spring mattress and a slatted frame with fully flexible joint bridges, including hardness adjustment. Thanks to the built-in Liftomat function, you can lift the bed to reach the storage space underneath.
Right at the rear is the dedicated space for the kids. It features a bunk bed with two sleeping surfaces of 75 cm x 190 cm each. The rear area also includes an additional sleeping surface of 75 cm x 192 cm. A practical folding sliding door gives the kids' area the privacy it needs.
In the middle of the vehicle, you'll find the central seating group. It's fitted with ergonomically shaped backrests and seat cushions with a high foam density, making it the go-to spot for meals together. When needed, this seating area converts in just a few steps into an extra sleeping space for up to two people, offering a surface of 1.10 m or 1.17 m x 2.00 m.
A Dometic MIDI roof hatch with crank handle brings daylight and steady ventilation into the living area. In the evening, you can set the mood with a well-thought-out 12V LED lighting setup, including a dual-switch ceiling light, indirect lighting above the ventilated storage compartments, and dimmable reading spots in the sleeping area.
Kitchen, bathroom and onboard technology
The kitchen unit features a 3-burner gas hob with auto-ignition, flame failure device, and a matt enamelled pan support, forming one unit with the stainless steel sink. Cooling is handled by a slim-tower compressor fridge that opens from both sides, offering 157 l of capacity with the freezer compartment removed. Self-closing kitchen drawers and soft-close storage compartments are part of the standard package, along with a brass mixer tap.
The bathroom comes with its own separate shower cubicle and a frosted-glass skylight. It's fitted with a white washbasin, a bathroom cabinet, an illuminated mirror, and a swivel cassette toilet with an LED fill-level indicator. Heating and hot water are handled by the built-in gas heater, the Truma Combi 6, which has a digital control panel and a built-in 10-litre hot water boiler.
