Best Luxury Caravans 2026 Top Models, Prices, and Features in Australia

Snowy River SRL-220S Premium Couples Comfort That Feels Like Home

The Snowy River Caravans SRL-220S is a 22ft luxury couples tourer built with a layout in mind that makes you feel like you’re in a compact apartment, not some cramped caravan.

The real centrepiece here is that east-west slide-out queen bed – it’s cleverly positioned to keep the bedroom feeling practical, with wardrobes and a Smart TV right opposite.

At the back, you’ve got a proper full-width ensuite with a separate shower and toilet, plus a washing machine – that’s a game-changer for anyone who likes to spend a bit of time on the road.

Out front, the kitchen is fully kitted out, and the club lounge is huge – you can easily stretch out and have some relaxed dining or just live your daily life without feeling squashed in.

What that means is that the internal flow is genuinely spacious – bedroom, kitchen, lounge and ensuite all get their own little zone, and that’s what makes this place feel so much like home.

What Makes the SRL-220S Such a Luxury Cruiser

• Power and independence: you get instant hot water, two 180W solar panels and two 100Ah lithium batteries, so you can head off-grid with confidence.
• Lighting and comfort: you’ve got LED downlights and strip lighting, plus large double-glazed windows that let in some lovely views, keep things insulated and make day-to-day life way more comfortable.
• Kitchens and tech: the fridge is a 224L Thetford, there’s a convection microwave, a hybrid gas/induction cooktop, and not one but two Smart TVs (24″ + 32″) to keep you entertained.

Why Couples Will Love the SRL-220S

For couples, this caravan is a winner because it gives you all the basics of a resort on the road: a lounge that’s actually usable, a proper kitchen that lets you cook up a storm, and an ensuite that feels like your own private bathroom – no compromises.

The slide-out bed is a great design feature that keeps the place feeling calm and uncluttered, and the smart storage solutions (pantries, wardrobes, overhead cupboards) mean you can go on longer trips without living out of your bags the whole time.

Pricing and Towing Details

The price starts at $91,990 (tow-away), and there’s a finance example on the model page if you want to take a closer look.

If you’re planning on towing this beauty around, here are the basics to know:

• Towing limits: your tow vehicle will need to be rated for 3500kg ATM, and your GCM (gross combination mass) needs to be suitable too
• Tare weight: 3013kg (so you’ve got about 487kg of payload before you start adding accessories and your personal gear)
• Tow ball weight: 271kg (double-check that your tow vehicle can handle that and the load distribution)
• Travel dimensions: 9120mm is the length, 2950mm is the height, and 2400mm is the width (so keep an eye on storage/garage and site suitability)
• Safety features: the chassis and suspension package, plus any stability and safety features, are listed on the model page – but do make sure you confirm on your specific build and variant

New Age Big Red – Where Luxury On Road Touring Meets Unbeatable Comfort

The New Age Big Red is all about taking touring to the next level, without having to compromise on space, comfort or style. And the key to all this? A clever layout that puts lounge comfort right at the top of the list, while squeezing in some pretty impressive smart spatial gains.

The Big Red range includes the Big Red 19E and Big Red 20E – both designed to give you the same “home from home” feel that you get when you’re not on the road, but within a footprint that’s still easy to manage on the bitumen.

What Makes The Big Red So Special

Now, what sets the Big Red apart? Well, for starters, you’ve got that gorgeous club lounge, which is basically the entrance to an absolute palace of an interior.

And that luxury feel just keeps on coming with the master bedroom slide-out – allowing you to fit in a huge cabinetry wall and a massive 42-inch TV – basically the perfect “home cinema” experience, right in the middle of your journey.

Other comfort and convenience features that really make the Big Red stand out include a queen-size bed, reverse-cycle air conditioning, a washing machine, an ensuite with toilet, an external shower, and even a reverse camera, plus GPS and Wi-Fi so you can stay connected on the go. Big Red is designed for long touring trips, not just a quick weekend getaway.

Perfect For Couples Who Want The Best

For couples, the appeal of the Big Red is clear-cut: we’ve designed this caravan to feel and function like a proper home, not just a place to sleep.

The club lounge is the perfect spot to share meals, spend time together on a soggy day, and just generally enjoy the comfort and space that matters when you’re on a multi-week trip.

And with that beautifully spacious ensuite, complete with a “proper” shower and instant hot water, you won’t have to compromise on your daily routines.

The Price – And Things To Consider When Choosing A Tow Vehicle

Big Red is priced from $112,240 for the 19E and $113,240 for the 20E. Now, when it comes to choosing the right tow vehicle, it’s worth taking a close look at these key measurements:

Key published measurements include:

19E

• Length: 26′ 7″ — from 8100 mm
  
• Avg tare: 2698 kg
  
• Tow ball: 175 kg
  
• Payload: up to 700 kg
  
• Width: 8′ 2″ (≈ 8.2 ft) — from 2500 mm

• Width: 8′ 2″ (≈ 8.2 ft) — from 2500 mm

Mountain Trail RV LXV 6.2 – A Rugged Luxury Caravan Built For The Long Haul

The Mountain Trail RV LXV 6.2 is a full-width off-road caravan that’s 20.6ft (6260mm internal) long and was designed with one thing in mind: to take you on the remote tour of a lifetime – without having to sacrifice the comforts of home.

At its core, the LXV 6.2 is built on a beefy off-road foundation (made from heavy-duty chassis & suspension) and paired with some seriously high-spec touring gear. You’ll find things like a queen bed that’s been sprung for comfort and has storage underneath, microfiber leather seats, a full-size shower and toilet and even an ensuite – and to top it all off, a 2.5kg washing machine.

But whats really key to this caravan is the ability to stay off the grid for as long as you like, thanks to some seriously heavy-hitting power and systems management – including a 1075W solar setup, 600Ah lithium battery, a 3000W pure sine wave inverter, and a REDARC Alpha100 TVMS system which lets you monitor everything from the inside and out (including via your phone)

Premium Build + Upgrade Options to Take it to the Next Level

At its heart, the LXV 6.2 is built on a hot-dip galvanised laser-cut chassis made in-house, European composite wall panels (which are basically foam core with a fibreglass skin) and laser-cut aluminium cabinetry (no wood in sight).

Upgrades to Take it to a 5-Star Level

Mountain Trail RV lets you customise the LXV 6.2 to suit your exact needs with options like:

• A forward or rear door – wherever you’ll be heading
• A bunch of upgrade options like an integrated dishwasher, outdoor kitchen, extra storage and even bike racks (all at an extra cost)
• A braking system that’ll put your mind at ease – ask the team about how to get a disc braking system

For the Adventurer Who Wants to Go Off-Road in Style

If you’re looking to spend some serious time in the great outdoors (but still want all the comforts of home), then the LXV 6.2 is for you.

Its diesel hot water system and heater keep things warm on those chilly nights, and with a roof-mounted reverse cycle air con, a kitchen that’s all about cooking off the grid (with a dual induction cooktop, rangehood, microwave and 250L upright fridge/freezer), you’ve got all the bases covered.

When it comes to off-road systems its got independent trailing air bag swing arm suspension with multiple ride heights, 12-inch electric brakes, a DO35 coupling and even an electronic dust suppression system

Budget & Weight Considerations

The LXV 6.2 will set you back around $231,950 – and if you’re looking to customise, there are plenty of options available (just check the brochure or get in touch with the team)

As for the hard stuff, it’s all listed below:
ATM 3500kg, ball weight 180kg and tare (dependent on door variant) at either 2918kg (rear door) or 2978kg (forward door)

Key lengths to keep in mind for those tricky storage spots and such are: overall length 8255mm, overall width 2495mm, and overall height 3025mm (standard air bag height) or 2975mm (low height)

Lotus Hollywood Flagship Luxury – A Home on Wheels with Slide-Out Living Space

The Lotus Hollywood is being marketed as the ultimate “luxury home on wheels” and Lotus’ most refined on-road model to date. It’s been engineered to deliver an expansive internal living space – courtesy of two slide-outs (lounge + bedroom) – all within a 24’6″ couples layout.

When you set it up where you want to be, the Hollywood morphs from a touring van into a “premium suite” experience – something that’s been carefully designed to bring a touch of resort living to the great outdoors.

You get oversized seating, heaps of room for entertaining and a proper residential flow that takes you seamlessly from kitchen to lounge to bedroom Sleeping capacity: 2 people. 

What Makes the Lotus Hollywood Feel Like a Luxury Suite on Wheels

The interior really is top-shelf and cutting-edge

• Upmarket fit-out: look for Italian leather upholstery, premium benchtops, CNC-cut furniture and a king-size pillow-top mattress that’ll make you feel like you’re sleeping on a cloud.
• Entertainment and connectivity: there are multiple TVs (including a 12V Google Smart TV that you’ll love for its ease of use), a top-of-the-line sound package, Starlink-ready mounts and an iLogic 4G+ antenna/router to keep you connected wherever you are.
• Power system: we’re talking REDARC RedVision, BMS50, 3000W inverter, 400Ah lithium and 850W solar, all working together in harmony (plus water gauges, sensors and an iPad dock because organisation is key).

And to top it all off, there are also lifestyle appliances like a 188L 12V compressor fridge, air-con and heating that can handle any weather, a washing machine and dishwasher, a dust reduction system for those dusty roads, an induction cooktop and convection oven/microwave options.

The Ultimate for Couples – Space, Features and a Whole Lot More

This one’s ideal for couples who just want a big, open space to live in without sacrificing any of the features they love – especially if they’re off on a long road trip.

Lotus highlights the fact that this model comes with a spacious bathroom and a fully-equipped kitchen with hot water on tap, a Clesana toilet and fibreglass shower cubicle – along with a grey water tank and an external shower for those longer stays.

Pricing – A Flagship Model with a Flagship Price Tag

Lotus doesn’t just give you a price – it wants to work with you to build your perfect model from the ground up. So you can expect a bespoke price tag for your new Hollywood.

That said, if you’re looking for a rough guide, Australian listings for new Hollywood models are usually in the $200k+ range – although that can vary depending on what you add to your build.

Slide-Out Ownership Notes and Towing

Just a heads up – owning a slide-out means you’ll need to make sure you’ve got a decent spot to set up, keep an eye on the seals and check with your local caravan parks to see if they’re okay with extending the slide.

And when it comes to towing? No worries – Hollywood’s got you covered with a hybrid truss chassis, Cruisemaster Air Advantage system, DO45 coupling and all-terrain tyre package. Just make sure you match your tow vehicle to the final build’s compliance weights before you order.

Crusader Lifechanger Bunkie (My25) – Luxury Family Touring Made Easy

The Crusader Lifechanger Bunkie MY25 is all about creating a top-notch caravan experience for families. It’s a game-changer in terms of transforming a standard bunk caravan into something that feels refined, rather than cramped.

The caravan can sleep up to four people and features a layout that keeps the adults happy and gives the kids their own dedicated space to chill. It’s the perfect way to help everyone unwind after a long day on the road.

At 21’3″ long and 8.3m in total length, the Bunkie is perfectly sized for touring, while still delivering all the comforts you’d expect from a family caravan – comfortable bedrooms, kitchen, lounge, and even an ensuite zone.

Family Luxury Features: Where Style Meets Function

Inside, the Bunkie is all about style and practicality. You’ve got great-looking designer upholstery, a full bedhead in the master bedroom, and a private bunk area for the kids to hang out in. It’s all designed to make family life on the road a lot easier.

For real sleep, the bedding is top-notch, with a big queen-sized bed and two lower bunk beds that are perfect for the kids. The kitchen is kitted out with a four-burner gas stove, standard microwave and a big compressor fridge, plus loads of storage and soft-close drawers to keep everything tidy.

Why Families Love the Bunkie – Comfort and Practical Storage

When the weather turns, or you just need a place to hang out, the Bunkie’s L-shaped lounge is the perfect spot for meals, downtime, and just general family time.

The ensuite is also designed with family in mind – you’ve got loads of storage, a big mirror to make the space feel bigger, and a massive fibreglass shower for getting clean after a long day out.

Outside, the Bunkie’s got all the essentials – a big tunnel boot, a picnic table, and solar panels to keep you topped up on the go.

Pricing and Towing – The Important Stuff

The bottom line is that the Bunkie is priced at $76,287 (not including rego) – with all the extras and upgrades you can fit on top.

Towing-wise, the specs show the ATM is 3.2 tonnes, tare is around 2.2 tonnes, and payload is 1 tonne – so you’ve got plenty of room to carry all your gear, but you still need to keep an eye on your load.

Don’t forget to match your tow vehicle to the compliance plate weights and check the tow-ball limits – especially once you’ve added all the extras.

Grand Caravans Tracker – Off-Grid Luxury With Custom Builds

The Tracker Range: Australian Made, Single Axle Off Road Caravans

The Grand Caravans’ Tracker is this Australian-made, single-axle, off-road couples caravan from Grand Caravans – the perfect fit for those who want to go off the beaten track without sacrificing a shred of comfort. With its focus on custom builds, this range has dozens of floorplans and layouts to choose from.

Is This Off-Grid Luxury With A Reasonable Price Tag?

The Tracker off-grid package is centred around a Victron electrical system (the works: BMV-712 display, Blue Smart AC charger, MPPT solar controller, and an Orion DC-DC charger), backed up by 2 x 200W solar panels and a 225Ah lithium battery. Now that’s a solid foundation for couples who actually need to run real 12V loads on the road.

In terms of water autonomy, the spec includes two 110L tanks for fresh water and one 110L tank for grey water, as well as a mains pressure inlet and filter at the kitchen tap. Not bad.

Then there’s the build quality – and what a build quality it is! Highlights include an aluminium composite exterior that you can really customise, a one-piece fibreglass roof, double-glazed windows, and a brand new chassis/suspension package featuring AL-KO electronic stability control, TEKO Tuff Ride coil suspension, and a Cruisemaster DO35 coupling.

The Perfect Caravan For Long-Touring Couples

This is the perfect caravan for couples who do long stretches and want to be able to live comfortably off the grid without breaking the bank. With a 200L compressor fridge/freezer, aircon, washing machine, hot water, smart TV and all the other bells and whistles you’d need – plus some great outdoor touring features like a rollout awning, tunnel boot storage, a picnic table and an external entertainment box – this is the real deal.

Pricing, Towing And Payload Info For The Tracker

Grand Caravans does things a bit differently with this one – the pricing is a custom build-to-order quote (so “Build Your Own” and “Request a Quote” are your two best bets).

As for towing and payload – well, it all depends on the floorplan you go for. Here are some examples from the Tracker range page to give you an idea:

• The 15’6 model: ATM 2800kg, tare 2080kg, payload 720kg, ball 197kg
• The 17′ model: ATM 2800kg, tare 2198kg, payload 602kg, ball 150kg
• The 18’6 model: ATM 3000kg, tare 2350kg, payload 650kg, ball 200kg
• The 19’6 model: ATM 3200kg, tare 2470kg, payload 730kg, ball 130-211kg
• The 22′ model: ATM 3500kg, tare 2650kg, payload 850kg, ball 200kg

Here’s a payload planning tip to keep in mind: water, battery/solar upgrades, and all your other accessories and storage items – that’s what’s most likely to push you into ball-weight and ATM limits – so double-check the figures on your exact build before you go.

Deluxe Caravans Eclipse 21 Couples XP-Tech – The Tech-Forward Luxury Tourer for Couples

The Eclipse 21’6 Couples XP-Tech caravan is pitched as a top-of-the-line tourer for couples who want to live it up, but still need comfort when they’re staying put off the beaten track. The specs say 21’6 floor plan, tandem axle, and full off-road suspension – this one’s designed to handle the rough stuff, and it’s got a braked ATM of 3500kg to match.

XP-Tech / Composite Build – Where Luxury Meets High Tech

Deluxe Caravans are big on the idea of XP-Tech – using composite materials instead of traditional framing to build a more solid caravan with the likes of better insulation to keep the noise out and the peace in.

They say it’s cutting-edge tech, and the perfect fit for Aussie conditions. If you’re buying one, make sure to check the fine print and get the details in your sales contract – we’d hate for you to be left with some nasty surprises.

Why Couples Love Their XP-Tech Caravan – The Ultimate Touring Companion

So what does “tech-forward” really mean? For one, it’s the brains of the operation – Victron system with a 3000W inverter, 120A charger, the works – plus a lithium and solar package that’ll keep your fridge and devices going all day long.

We’re talking Dometic 188L compressor fridge, full ensuite with washing machine, and even an external shower if you want one.

It’s a far cry from your run-of-the-mill caravan, that’s for sure. And it’s great for couples who want to stay on the road without being tied to a power outlet every night.

Prices, Placements, and Towing Notes – The Essentials

You won’t see any prices for the Eclipse 21’6 Couples XP-Tech just yet – “enquire for price” is the usual line in these listings. But if you’re buying the non-XP “Couples Off-Road”, you can expect to shell out around $92,900 (plus some extra for the tech). For towing, you’re looking at ATM 3500kg, tare weight around 2700kg, and tow-ball download about 200kg. If you’re planning on taking this beauty out on the road, make sure your tow vehicle’s brake-towing rating can handle the load and 6.6m (22ft) 21’6 Couples XP-Tech.

Jayco Silverline – The Ultimate Touring Van For Comfort-Oriented Travellers

At the top of the Jayco Silverline is built for the kind of traveller who wants everything to be clicked into place when they arrive at their campsite. It’s all about delivering premium comfort, well-integrated systems, and that “set up and stay” feel that lets you just kick back and stay a while on extended tours.

Jayco positions the Silverline around the idea of really refined sleeping and living zones, a kitchen that can handle long stays, and all those little features that ease the process of day-to-day touring (like power monitoring and exterior convenience).

Luxury in the Details – Interior, Appliances, and Convenience Features

The Silverline is all about the finer things in life when it comes to comfort-first touring

• Kitchen & cooling space: there’s a decent-sized 216L 12V fridge and a 4-burner cooktop with built-in griller & oven – plus a microwave for those longer trips when you want a real meal, not just some instant noodles.
  
• That “home-away-from-home” feel: real European leather for the seating and, on certain bed types, a proper Queen-size Tempur mattress for the ultimate in comfort.
  
• Ensuite luxury: and then there’s the fully kitted out ensuite with a washing machine, plus that nice-to-have one-piece fibreglass shower with exhaust fan and LED lighting.
  
• Keeping an eye on things: a 10″ touchscreen for tracking your battery and water levels, and paired up with an integrated charger and MPPT setup that lets you monitor your setup via Bluetooth.
  
• Touring made easier: powered pull-out step, under-chassis LED rock lights, powered 12V A-frame jack, and a nice picnic table with storage thrown in for good measure.
  
• Energy is the starting point: for the base spec, you get 3 x 260W solar panels and a 420Ah lithium battery, which is a great starting point.

The Perfect Fit for Touring Couples Who Want a “Home from Home”

Silverline’s really geared up for the couples who are going to be spending loads of time inside the van – the nights in, the longer park stays, the big extended loops.

Because when Jayco spec’d the thing out, they decided to err on the side of luxury: large fridge capacity, a real cooking suite, leather lounge comfort, and an ensuite that really does feel like the real thing (including a washing machine).

Working Out the RRP, Buying & Towing Your Silverline

Pricing: Jayco reckons pricing is pretty standard RRP for a 2025 model, and then there’s “drive/tow-away” pricing that takes into account your postcode and on-road costs. Bear in mind that options can knock on the taxes & charges, so your best bet is to use Jayco’s Build & Price tool or ask for a quote directly.

Model Variants: there are heaps of different models & floorplans to choose from (all laid out for you on the page or via Build & Price). Here are some example specs for a 21.65-3.SL-MY26 model:

• Unladen mass: 2614kg | Towball: 204kg
• Length when on the move: 8422mm | Height (let’s hope your garage is high enough): 2970mm(21-23-length-in-feet)
• Check your tow vehicle’s tow rating, towball limit and payload plan before you even think about getting behind the wheel – Jayco suggests that weights/dimensions are a guide and will change depending on what accessories you bolt to the thing.

The Top-of-the-Range Platinum Highlander – Boutique Caravans’ Ultimate Luxury Flagship

The Platinum Highlander (22 ft, rear-door entry) is basically the ultimate off-road luxury caravan for buyers who demand both serious off-road capability and a level of finish that’s way above average for a standard off-road van.

• Keeping you safe: a CrimSafe triple-lock entry door, plus tinted double-glazed windows that’ll make your touring experience even more enjoyable.
• Inside feels like home: your lounge area’s got ABS-CNC furniture, a waterfall benchtop, plush lounge seating, 3 skylights to let the sunlight in, and a super comfy queen pillowtop innerspring mattress.
• The kitchen & all the comforts: throw in a Bushman 190L compressor fridge, Swift full oven/griller/cooktop, Belair inverter air conditioner (reverse cycle), microwave, and washing machine, and you’ve got all the essentials.
• Keeping you connected off-grid: on top of this, you’ve also got a 4 x 210W solar set-up, a 2 x 300Ah lithium battery set, Victron’s top-of-the-line “Fully Off-Grid” unit, Wi-Fi for streaming, a TV and sound bar, and wireless phone charging.

For Buyers Who Want Elite Luxury & Strong Off-Road Capability

This model is perfect for buyers who are looking for a caravan that screams premium quality and takes on any touring challenge head-on: the Highlander has got a raptor-coated chassis, a DO35/DO45 coupling option, electric brakes on all wheels, loads of storage in the large toolbox/tunnel boot, an external entertainment pack, and a reverse camera system for added safety.

The Highlander is also designed to be super comfortable on the inside – with plenty of room for all your gear, and a floor plan that’s been set up for maximum ergonomics. And, if you want to try a different layout, you’ve got that option too.

Getting Your Hands on the Highlander – Pricing & Ownership Notes

Pricing is quote-only, so best to contact them for a more accurate figure – and just to give you some heads up, weights can vary depending on the customisation options you go with. The listed tare is 2850kg, ball weight is 200 kg, and ATM 4500kg – so you’ll want to make sure your tow vehicle is up to it.

Ownership fundamentals include a 2-year warranty, and when it comes to long-term support and resale, Boutique’s got a reputation for “service excellence” and “built to last”.

Kokoda’s XC Range – Remote Luxury Touring With a Strong Focus on Off-Grid Adventures

Kokoda sees the XC Range as its top pick for anyone who wants to go on longer, more adventurous trips and still enjoy the comforts of home. Whether you’re talking weekend getaways, annual holidays or months on the road, these vans are designed for anyone who’s not happy with the usual trade-offs that come with remote travel.

The design goal was to create a van that lets you explore further afield without having to compromise on comfort, no matter the climate. So how did they do that? By combining heavy-duty suspension, solar panels and lithium batteries, a water tank and energy-efficient appliances – all designed to make off-grid travel a doddle.

Putting The Comfort Back into Off-Grid Travel + Staying Cool (or Warm) in Any Climate

Kokoda is banking on its innovative composite panel / XCore bonded construction as the secret to keeping your cabin climate-controlled – with or without power.

This clever trick means you stay nice and toasty (or cool) without gobbling up too much juice.

Both XC models rely on Victron’s advanced system management – complete with a Cerbo display and a 3000W inverter/charger (120A) to keep the lights on, even when the grid is nowhere in sight.

Plus, you get a top-notch water supply and grey tank setup, and other essentials that’ll make life on the road a breeze.

Best for Remote Touring Couples (and Families too) Who Want Comfort All Year Round

The XC Range is really aimed at couples (and families via different floor plans) who are sick of having to rough it just to get off the beaten track.

They want to be able to enjoy a comfortable, climate-controlled space – no matter if it’s scorching hot outside or a chilly night – and they don’t want to have to rely on a generator to make it happen.

Family floorplans: Queen/King bed + bunks, with bunk options stated as up to 6 bunks (so up to 8 people total: 2 on the main bed + up to 6 bunks). 

This is perfect for people who spend extended periods of time away from powered sites but still want a home from home, without being tied to a generator for heat or cooling.

Pricing Up the XC Range – Which One’s Right for You (and What’s the Real Cost)?

Kokoda lists the XC1 from $124k and the XC2 from $139k. If you want a solid off-grid setup that gives you the basics, the XC1 is the way to go – 860W solar panels, 400Ah lithium, TEKO suspension and a spacious toolbox.

If you want to push the boat out and go for autonomy and ease, the XC2 is the way to go – 1290W solar, 600Ah lithium, Level 4 self-levelling suspension and a top-of-the-line toolbox.

For weight and final spec, it’s worth noting that the door placement and overall van length can vary depending on which floor plan you go for, so it’s best to check with the sales team to confirm the details.

And make sure you look up the compliance plate on your final van to get a clear picture of the ATM/tare and ball weight – that way you know you’ve got the right tow vehicle to match.

Concept Caravans – Ascot Luxury Touring Caravan – Loads of Room to Move

The Concept Ascot caravan range is built for those who want to tour in style and comfort without having to compromise on layout. Essentially, this is a luxury touring caravan without the “one layout fits everyone” problem.

Concept brands the Ascot as a long-running nameplate that offers a premium touring experience. However, the brand has now also introduced a timber-free framework and four couples layouts to choose from, including the classic front and rear club lounge configurations.

At a basic level, the Ascot caravan is built on a hybrid frame, which is a combination of a lightweight polyurethane framework (that is said to be around 40% lighter than a traditional meranti frame) and strategic aluminium elements to add strength.

This hybrid framework allows screw, staple and bolt fixing to be used.

Luxury Touring Features & Layout Options – What You Get to Look Forward To

The Ascot caravan has a real luxury feel to it. This is down to the choice of materials and how easy they are to use.

Just a few of the features include – computer-cut furniture, soft-close kitchen drawers, concealed overhead cupboard catches and real leather upholstery that has been sourced sustainably.

Touring is also made easy through the use of double-glazed windows with built-in blinds and fly screens, a keyless security door, an external entertainment box, an awning, a picnic table, and a huge boot with a lot of storage space ( model dependent).

Layout choice is a major selling point of the caravan. The range offers options including 640/ 650 / 670 / 680 with layout lengths from 6.48m to 6.9m, giving you a choice from a 6.4m rear-ensuite couples van through to a 6.8m rear/centre club-lounge style flagship.

Why the Ascot caravan works for buyers who want to travel in comfort

The spec list on an Ascot caravan reads like a wish list for anyone who wants to stay away from home for a while. Some of the key features include – a fully enclosed full height shower, innerspring mattress, air conditioning, washing machine, grey water tank protection, and built-in water filtration.

Power management has also been made easy, with a Projecta lithium battery management system and a display at the entry for monitoring.

Pricing & Choosing the Right Model for Your Tow Vehicle

Concept’s Ascot caravan range web page is focused on getting in touch with a dealer to enquire about the price of a specific caravan. This is because specs and weights can vary depending on the configuration and options chosen, so each caravan is effectively quoted by the dealer based on your choices.

Before you start looking at tow vehicles, get a baseline weight for your chosen caravan:

• Ascot 640: ATM 3250kg, tare 2550kg, ball 150kg

The Retreat Whitsunday Premium Tourer: Where Comfort Meets Practicality

The Retreat Whitsunday XE – a luxury off-grid tourer that not only looks the part but also delivers on the comfort and usability front for those long road trips.

At Retreat, they focus on creating a comfortable couples-style living experience, and then add to that the kind of proven touring hardware you’d want for a hassle-free journey: that’s independent suspension, all-terrain tyres, a raised roof for extra headroom, a beefy coupling, bigger brakes, a long A-frame to give you extra space, and sway control for peace of mind on the highways.

Luxury & Liveability: What Sets the Whitsunday XE Apart

The ‘premium feel’ of the Whitsunday XE comes from a combination of high-quality materials and clever lighting that really makes the space feel welcoming. You get top-notch furniture, leather upholstery and some lovely interior lighting, but at the same time, Retreat haven’t forgotten the practicalities – think self-closing drawers, a splashback to protect against spills, and a comfy pillowtop mattress.

For keeping cool, there’s a Gree air conditioner to keep you and your partner comfortable. And in the bathroom, a proper fibreglass shower and some useful storage solutions let you get the most out of the space.

Some of the key build features that make the Whitsunday XE tick include a one-piece roof that’s strong and waterproof, a solid wall construction and a tough, high-density composite floor that’ll withstand all sorts of conditions. And for added peace of mind on the road, you get a range of practical exterior protection options, like a roll-out awning, a tunnel boot, and an A-frame toolbox.

Designed with Couples in Mind – Where the Systems Just Work

For couples, the real value of the Whitsunday XE is in how all the systems work together seamlessly. That means 1 big lithium battery to keep you powered, solar panels to top you up on the go, a clever battery management system and a decent-sized 3-way fridge to keep your food fresh. Plus, you get premium audio, external power points and even a 28″ smart TV to keep you entertained when you need a break.

When it comes to keeping you and your partner clean, there are 2 x 110L fresh water tanks, a 110L grey tank for the loo, a hot water service to make washing up a breeze, and even a washing machine to keep your clothes clean. And with a good quality water filter and level gauges to keep an eye on things, you’re all set.

Pricing & Towing – A Few Things to Keep in Mind

Retreat doesn’t quote a single price for the Whitsunday XE – instead, you get to build your own (which can get a bit confusing). So, the price you pay will ultimately depend on the layout you choose and the options you tick.As a rough guide, one new Whitsunday 180C listing we came across was priced at around $112,990, with a tare weight of 2425kg, ATM 3000kg and a tow-ball weight of 241kg. Of course, the certified weights for your chosen floorplan will give you the best idea of how much you can safely tow.
