Prices from VanBuilders for Sprinter and Transit camper van builds can cost $25k-130k for custom work, and between $80k-110k for our soon to arrive pre-designed camper vans. The price on custom work varies greatly depending on what you are looking for. For a basic build with walls/floor/ceiling, electrical, and a bed, it can be on the lower end, but as you add elements for a full camper van build, the price will increase. A build with all of the works, custom cabinetry, finishing, lighting, etc. will reach the higher end of the scale. Adding on aftermarket accessories such as suspension, roof racks, solar panels, and more also adds to the price fluctuations.
