Since 2011, previously a tugger
About what year were fridges with automatic switch over between mains, 12 volt and gas introduced?

since 1997 (many years tugger before then)
Previous van, Hymer S650 1997 vintage, had a fully auto fridge...that fridge is now in my shed having been replaced by a 12v compressor one.

We had a 1997 vehicle with Auto switchover fridge but our current 1997 vehicle has manual switchover

Mines 2003 and is selected manually. Don't think I'd trust it any other way.
Our hire van three years ago had auto switching and I never knew what it was doing and the freezer frequently defrosted things !

Always leave ours on manual, safer in case you forget when going on ferry/eurotunnel etc.
