Just a though, is VW the only car manufacturer that has developed campers from the factory with warranty? Also ironic how the California is sold in most places of the world except in California.

Corvair vans were offered as a camper.

Though primarily marketed at traveling salesmen you could probably include Nash and Hudson models where the seats folded into a full sized bed.

The Dodge A100 was offered as a camper as well, but I’m not sure if it was a factory option.

depends on what you mean by factory, since vw partnered with their campers. does this count?

Mercedes currently sells the Marco Polo vans based on the V-Class (what we know as the Metris): https://www.mercedes-benz.com/en/mercedes-benz/vehicles/camper-vans/marco-polo-stylish-camper-van/

Nissan is offering conversions of the NV200, eNV200, and NV300 in Spain: https://newsroom.nissan-global.com/releases/release-75b19d3a1fdacef50552303145069adb-nissan-unveils-two-camper-van-models-in-madrid?year=2018

Much more barebones - really just a bed, not a full camper - but Chrysler offered a convertible second row option for the minivans in the earlier days :

If we’re going to talk about from-the-ground-up... there’s always the GMC motorhomes (basically, put a Toronado FWD drivetrain in the front of a motorhome chassis):
