Fantasy Caravan Review – Top Models, Key Features & Pricing

Fantasy Caravans in 2026: Where the Brand Stands

Fantasy Caravans is starting 2026 as a brand that’s all about value for money, yet still offering all the bells and whistles in a market that’s still fast on the rise.

ProductReview rates Fantasy Caravans 3.5 stars out of 5 from 50 real-life owner reviews – and the feedback is pretty mixed. About 64% of the feedback is positive, while 36% is negative – a pretty even split. 

The positive comments are all about how great the layouts are and how easy they are to tow, but some owners have had issues with delays and not getting the support they need after buying.

The official range of caravans from Fantasy spans from the Mystic, which is a compact 10-12 footer (1,050-1,150 kg), through to the Horizon, which – depending on the spec – can be up to 22 ft and weigh in at 2,750 kg (and will set you back $75,990). 

There’s lots in between, of course: the Cubby is a 13-17 footer (1,420-1,710 kg, from $41,990), the Nano is a 10-16 footer (1,247-1,620 kg, from $35,990), the Expedition is a 13-18 footer hybrid (2,140-2,700 kg, from $45,990), the Frontier is a 13-17 footer (2,370-2,900 kg, from $57,990), the Fury is a 13-18 footer (2,370-2,400 kg, from $48,990) – and let’s not forget the POD and the Skyline.

Editorial reviews have put the prices of some of the caravans at – for example – the Nano and the Cubby for around $39,990, the Expedition for $46,990, the FT Series Mk III for around $49,990 (with some nice extras like solar panels and deep cycle batteries) – and the Horizon is a whopper at $79,990, with dual water tanks and a 5-year warranty

Fantasy is up against a pretty tough competition in the caravan market, which has seen a massive surge in demand: over the past few years there’s been a 27% jump in the number of caravans and campervans on the road (up to 901,000), and the industry is expecting this to keep growing at about 4.9% per year, all the way up to 990,000 by 2026. 

Meantime, the Australian economy is doing pretty well too: there were 15.3 million trips taken and 60.7 million nights spent camping, and while those numbers came down a bit (to 15.2 million trips and 57.1 million nights), there’s still a lot of money getting spent – $14+ billion worth – and the average stay is getting a bit shorter (from 4.0 nights to 3.7).

Mystic 12F Small Family Ensuite Caravan

The Mystic 12F is designed for families who want all the comforts of a compact van without having to sacrifice proper beds, a fully functional kitchen and a real bathroom.

At around 12 ft and with an ATM of around 1,500 kg, it hits the sweet spot where a whole bunch of mid-size SUVs should be able to tow it with ease. 

And that’s a big deal in Australia, where thousands of RVs are on the road and there’s been a noticeable shift towards lighter, more manageable caravans for family use.

As things stand right now, Mystic 12F-style small family ensuite vans generally seem to be coming in at a drive-away price in the range of $45,000 – $65,000 here in Australia, but prices can vary depending on the dealer, spec and all the usual on-road costs, so it’s always best to check in with the manufacturer or dealer for the latest pricing.

Family Bedding in a Compact Layout (and still loads of space for the kids)

In a 12ft body, the Mystic 12F manages to squeeze in:

• A fixed main bed for the grown-ups.
• Proper built-in bunks for the kids (not just a dinette conversion, thank goodness).
• A compact dinette area for meals on the run, and rainy-day downtime.

For families with young kids, having fixed bunks is a real game-changer. It means less messing around, fewer arguments at bedtime and a more predictable sleep routine on the road.

When you’re planning family holidays, having a reliable sleep setup makes it much, much easier to pick parks, drive times and all the rest that actually work for you.

The Full Ensuite Experience in a Tiny Footprint

Most 12ft solutions end up relying on some sort of external tent or shared park facilities.

The Mystic 12F has a full ensuite on board:

• Internal loo.
• Internal shower.
• Hot water, proper ventilation and the works.

This means you can say goodbye to reliance on park facilities and hello to more flexibility and independence on your travels.

It also makes life a lot easier for families who prefer a bit more seclusion or who travel off-peak when some amenities might be closed. 

In practice, this can turn a quick weekend getaway into a proper “mini home” experience – not just some dodgy camping setup.

Light Towing for More Relaxing Trips

Because the Mystic 12F is relatively light for a family van, you get:

• Better compatibility with your existing family vehicle (no need for an expensive, heavy-duty towbar).
• Easier towing and parking in regional towns.
• Less driver fatigue on those long Australian highways.

Realistically, this means more short trips, more long weekends and a lot fewer arguments about whether towing is just too hard.

For many buyers, the difference between a caravan that sits in the driveway and one that actually gets used comes down to this.

Fury 16B Hardroof Hybrid Off Grid Caravan

The Fury-16B Hardroof is built with travellers in mind – the ones who actually live the off-grid lifestyle, not just dream about it.

At 16 feet tall, with a hard roof and a hybrid layout, it’s small enough to squeeze down some tighter tracks, yet it still packs a punch in terms of electrical capacity – the kind of capacity you’d usually expect on a much bigger rig.

From what local Aussie dealers have been advertising the Fury-16B Hardroof for, you can expect to pay anywhere from $70,000 to $90,000 to drive away, depending on the options you go with, where you buy it and what other costs pop up. Just remember to always double-check the current price with the manufacturer or dealer before taking it as gospel.

Off Grid Power Capacity For Extended Stays

When it comes down to it, the numbers are what count.

• 2 x 300Ah lithium batteries, giving you a total of 600Ah.
• 600 watts of solar on the roof.
• 3000 watts of inverter power, linked to a Renogy REGO system.

So what does all that mean in real terms? Well, essentially it lets couples like you:

• Run your 12V fridge, lights and fans for days without having to fire up a generator.
• Power those common 240V appliances like kettles or coffee machines for a short burst.
• Keep recharging in sunny conditions – especially if you’re in one of the Aussie states that gets a lot of sunlight.

And when you look at the numbers alongside the insights from planning tools like Australian Consumer Search, you can see a clear picture – interest in off-grid caravans and free camping is on the up as more people are ditching powered sites for national parks and station stays.

Hardroof Hybrid Layout For Touring Pairs

The Fury-16B is a 2-berth hardroof hybrid. That means it’s got a lot of the benefits of the two – a solid roof that’s better than a soft top, a body length that’s easy to park in smaller campgrounds and interior comfort that feels a lot closer to a full caravan.

For a lot of people, that’s a pretty specific set of requirements – they want to have some of the compact feel of a camper, but also have the security, the insulation and the ‘real van’ feel that comes with a solid roof.

Electrical System Protection And Warranty Safeguards

Now, 600Ah of lithium and a 3000W inverter aren’t toys – that’s a serious electrical system you’re dealing with.

So it’s always worth:

• Taking a close look at the documentation and checking the installation quality and brand of the components used.
• Confirming the warranty terms in writing – you don’t want any grey areas.
• Understanding how Australian Consumer Law treats major failures in high end systems like this.

If something goes wrong in the middle of nowhere, you want more than just marketing promises. You want a clear paper trail, good support and a van that’s designed to handle the kind of off-grid touring you’re planning.

Skyline 22F – a true touring caravan for families

The Skyline 22F is designed for the kinds of Aussie families who don’t just want a weekender – they want a caravan that can take them on all sorts of adventures down the highway.

At 22ft, this caravan combines a private zone just for the adults, proper bunks for the kids, and a bathroom all to themselves, so everyone gets their own space on the road – even on the longer trips.

Dealers in Australia have been listing new 2025 Skyline 22F caravans for sale lately – semi-off-road models for around $71,990 plus all the government charges – so it’s worth checking in with your local dealer for the latest drive-away price and making sure your budget can handle it.

You get a proper queen bed for the parents, bunks for the kids, a fully equipped kitchen and a separate shower and loo, all powered by off-grid systems and suspended on tandem axles that are built to handle the long haul rather than just short trips between campsites.

Family layout that makes sense for real touring

In 22ft, the Skyline 22F can easily handle:

• A queen bed all to yourselves for the parents
• Proper bunks for the kids – not just some seats that get folded out into a bed
• A usable dinette where everyone can have a meal or do some work

The trouble is, for many families this stuff really matters.

When you start planning out big trips across the country, you’ll see just how many people are searching for a caravan that can fit the whole family in comfortably – not just some cramped 4-berth model. Search for “caravan with bunks” or “family caravan with separate shower and loo” and you’ll see what I mean.

That’s because separate sleeping spaces make bedtime a whole lot less stressful, and a fixed layout means you don’t have to be packing and unpacking every night – just the usual weekend routine.

The separate bathroom zone – a total game-changer

The separate bathroom is one of the things that sets the Skyline 22F apart from all the rest.

• A proper internal shower
• A separate loo – no wet-rooms or compromises here
• Enough space to get the kids’ bath time over with without having to queue for park blocks

On busy school holidays, having your own shower and loo means you:

• Don’t have to queue up with everyone else for the facilities at peak times
• Can manage your routine without stress
• Can afford to free camp or stay in some of the less-equipped parks

All in all, it means you’ve got more freedom to choose where you go, and less stress when you get there.

Touring comfort built into the running gear and power

The Skyline 22F is a touring caravan, after all.

• Off-grid power lets you run all the essentials without having to plug in all the time
• Tandem suspension means the bumps and potholes don’t get in the way of your holiday

For a lot of families, that’s what turns a Skyline 22F-style caravan from a “holiday toy” into a rolling home that can handle anything from school holidays to a lap of Australia.

Horizon 22F multi terrain family caravan

The Horizon 22F is tailor made for families who aren’t just after a van to park up and plug in at the weekend, but are serious about using it as a proper multi-terrain tourer.

At just over 22 feet long, it’s got the space and layout a family needs – a real queen bed for the parents, some decent bunks for the kids, and a full kitchen that can handle daily cooking rather than just scrounging for snacks.

Add in a 3.5T coil suspension chassis, 600Ah of lithium and 800W of solar to the mix, and you get a van that doesn’t just look the part but can actually handle some serious off-grid adventures, not just the occasional overnight campout.

Prices for new 2025 listings of the Fantasy Horizon 22F are coming in at around the $83,990 mark excluding any govt charges & fees so it’s probably smart to treat this as a rough guide and get the very latest drive away price from your chosen dealer.

Family layout designed for families who live in their vans

The internal layout of the Horizon 22F is actually built around making life on the road feel more like home, not just some crazy holiday adventure.

You’ve got:

• A dedicated space for the parents to get some decent night’s sleep.
• Bunks for the kids so they can just go to bed like they do at home, no need to convert the vans seats every night.
• A proper kitchen that can handle cooking meals for the family, not just whipping up some snags in a pan.
• A separate shower and loo so the bathroom area feels like a real home bathroom.

Over the course of a two week school holiday trip that might work out to 14 mornings and 14 evenings where everyone can just do the same routine – bed, brekky, bathroom – without having to get out of the van. Do that 20-40 times a year and the van starts to feel more like a home on wheels rather than just a holiday vehicle.

Electrical Reserves Make Longer Stays Possible

The power system really puts the “multi-terrain” idea to the test.

• 600Ah lithium batts – a decent size bank to work with
• 800W roof-mounted solar panel – because a bit of sunshine can go a long way

Plugging in some numbers, if you figure an average daily energy draw of 150-200Ah for a family (think: fridge, lights, fans, water pumps, charging devices and a few appliances) a 600Ah bank gives you some serious wiggle room.

With good weather, your 800W solar can knock off a big chunk of that daily use. That leaves you with more options – like:

• Keeping your fridge from turning into a hot oven on a sweltering day.
• Running fans or the diesel heater as needed to keep things comfy.
• Topping up your laptops and devices so you can keep working or schooling on the go.

Rather than “we can stay off-grid for a single night”, you’re now planning on 3, 5 or even more nights between refueling stops, all depending on how things go and your energy usage.

Suspension & Chassis Made for The Long Haul

The 3.5T coil suspension chassis is built for the mixed touring lifestyle – a mix of bitumen, regional roads and formed tracks.

This setup gives you:

• More stability on those rough regional highways with all their potholes and corrugations.
• Greater confidence when you’re carrying a full load of gear for the whole family.
• A higher safety margin when you’re heading off the beaten track – be it to a remote station or into some amazing national park trails.

For a lot of families, that’s the difference between sticking to the same old coastal parks and being able to add some real adventure to your travels – without worrying that your van is being pushed beyond what it can handle.

Toyhauler 19 – Garage Caravan For Serious Adventure Travel

The Toy Hauler 19 is built for adventurous types who aren’t exactly light packers – they need room for their bikes, boards, tools and all the rest of the gear that makes life on the road so much fun.

Coming in at around 19 feet in length, with an approximate ATM of 2800 kg, this 2 berth toy hauler gives you a dedicated rear garage while still keeping the essentials – a self contained living zone – up front.

Listings for the Fantasy Caravan Toy Hauler 19 from 2025 are showing up with a new van advertised at around $74,990, although you’ll need to add on govt charges and factor in some wiggle room for the final drive away price – its best to give your local dealer a call to find out the latest.

The Great Outdoors – Garage Space For Your Gear

The rear space in the Toy Hauler 19 is pretty much designed with one thing in mind – to keep all your gear nice and tidy inside the van.

No more strapping it all to the back or roof – you can roll it inside where it’ll be safe from the elements and protected from theft. For example:

• A couple of dirt bikes or e-MTB’s
• Your kayak, paddle board or surf gear
• Tool boxes full of recovery gear and camp furniture

That’s a big weight savings – instead of 50-80 kg of gear on the back of the van. 

Plus, you’ll get a few other benefits out of the deal – better aerodynamics, and a more streamlined pack up and down at the end of the trip.

Zone Out the Chaos – Separate Living and Gear Zones for Pack Like a Pro

The Toyhauler 19 lets you keep your living zone nice and separate from the garage zone, which is exactly what you want when you’re camping.

Up front, you’ll find:

• A comfy sleeping setup for two adults – perfect for a couples getaway.
• A pint-sized kitchen that’s got everything you need for cooking up a storm.
• A spot to kick back and relax on rainy days or when you’re just unwinding with a couple of mates.

But then you’ve got the dedicated gear bay tucked away at the back of the van.

That separation is the key to not having your muddy bikes and gear making a mess of your living space. 

It keeps the fuel cans and tools from getting in the way of your bedding, and lets you contain all the noise and smells in one end of the van.

Tow Without Worries – Touring Stability and Planned Weight Distribution

With an ATM of around 2,800 kg, the Toy Hauler 19 needs a tow vehicle that’s up to the task, but it also gives you a much more predictable weight to work with.

Because all the heavy stuff (bikes, gear, tools) has its own special home in the back of the van, it’s a doddle to:

• Get your weight and balance sorted once and for all.
• Do the same packing routine every trip without having to stress about it.
• Stay well within your towball and axle limits as you add or remove gear without worrying about going over.

For anyone who loves getting out for the weekend or going on an adventure, that kind of consistency is what turns a complex toy-and-caravan combo into a simple, low-stress routine.

Expedition 16A compact king bed ensuite caravan

The Expedition 16A – it’s a caravan built with couples in mind, who want to keep things compact and simple on the outside but still have a “proper” bedroom experience inside – a real full-size bed feel.

At 16ft it’s a good fit for tighter campsites and easier storage, yet it still manages to squeeze in that king bed, a full ensuite and a pretty useful kitchen that you can use every day, even when you’re heading down some rougher tracks.

Prices for something similar to the Expedition 16A are looking at around the $70,000 to $90,000 mark in 2025 for a 16ft off-road caravan with an ensuite in Australia. 

But to be honest, the actual price will depend on which options you go for, the dealer, your state and all the usual on-road costs. So be sure to check with the manufacturer or dealer for the latest pricing as it can change.

King-bed comfort that fits in a compact van

The king bed is the star of the show here.

In a 16ft caravan, it means you get:

• Loads of room to stretch out – more than you would in a standard island queen.
• Way better sleep quality when you’re on longer trips.
• Room to move around without feeling like you’re stuck in a tiny box.

If you’re the sort of person who does 20-30 nights away per year, that extra comfort adds up quickly.

Better sleep means you’ll have the energy to tackle hikes, long drives and packing/unpacking, rather than just struggling through.

Over a two week trip, that’s 14 nights where you can actually get a good rest, rather than just muddling along in a smaller bed.

Comfortable beds in smaller vans – not just a fantasy

A fully self-contained ensuite in a 16ft van is more than just a checkbox on a brochure.

You get:

• A shower you can use every day – no reason to feel like you’re missing out.
• A loo that doesn’t rely on dodgy public facilities.
• A proper hot water system that works on the go and some decent ventilation to get you through those morning routines.

That opens up a whole new world of where you can stay on holiday.

Instead of being stuck at big resorts with all the facilities, you can stop at:

• Smaller parks in the country that have all the charm but without the price tag.
• Campgrounds that are simple but get the job done.
• Shoulder-season bookings when some places have maintenance issues.

And that flexibility usually means you can stay away more often because you can afford to go places you thought were a bit too remote.

Confident off-road capability – in a compact package

The Expedition 16A has off-road suspension that’s been tuned for the real world – not just for cruising down the highway.

That means:

• You can handle rough roads without being shaken to bits.
• Less of that annoying transfer of shock through the van’s body and cupboards.
• Better control when the van is loaded up with all your gear.

For a lot of couples, this is the difference between a van that’s only good for long distance highway trips and one that can actually get you off the beaten track.

Designed for two-person touring, not singles or families

With a decent kitchen and some serious thought put into power and water storage for off-grid living, the Expedition 16A is built to last on long trips.

You can plan your holidays around how you want to travel, not just where the next powered site is.

And that, more than anything, is what turns a van from being a weekend-only plaything into a trusted companion for long trips and adventures.

The Cubby 15.5 – a lightweight four berth ensuite caravan for the city traveller

The Cubby 15.5 is a caravan for those who want to enjoy all the comforts of home while still having the freedom to get to some of the more remote spots – and at the same time keep their vehicle from getting worn out.

At 1900 kg ATM and just 140 kg ball weight it is almost a no-brainer for those who own a mid-size SUV or dual cab – no need to worry about overloading the towing vehicle.

That’s a big plus because that low weight, combined with its compact 15.5 ft length, makes it a cinch to drive around in the city, dodging other cars on the highway, squeezing into service stations and tight regional campgrounds.

At the moment, if you’re in the market for a new one, you can expect to pay around $47,990 for the Fantasy Cubby 15.5ft Caravan with Bathroom – but be sure to confirm the latest drive-away price with the dealer as prices seem to change every year.

Light towing, so anyone can join in

One of the benefits of the Cubby 15.5’s light weight is that loads of existing family vehicles can now tow it without breaking a sweat.

Which means:

• No need to break the bank to upgrade to a heavy-duty 4WD just to start caravanning
• A whole lot less fuel burn on long road trips – especially at highway speeds
• And easier to handle for newer drivers – or those a bit less confident

We know that because of the registration data – there are now over 900,000 registered caravans and campervans on the road, with caravans under 1,000 kg making up over a quarter (23.5%)

Packing a punch in a four-berth compact layout

The Cubby 15.5 still manages to cram in an awful lot, even though its exterior is as neat as a pin:

• You get a shower and toilet that are all tucked away inside.
• A full kitchen has even been squeezed in, complete with a pretty decent 118L fridge.
• Top marks for the sleeping arrangements too – four people can squeeze in, thanks to a really flexible layout.

For couples who like to have friends or family over, having a four-berth layout in your van means you can go on all sorts of trips – long trips, quick weekends and even pop up visits from the kids – without having to break out the big gun of a family caravan.

And it also means you can pop out for a spur of the moment mid-week getaway – because you’re not tied down to having to stay at campsites with all the frills – you bring all that with you in the van.

The demand for these tiny ensuite vans is rocketing

Industry insiders reckon caravan and camping trips are only getting more popular, and have just released some stats to back it up – apparently there are now over 908,000 recreational vehicles on the road. 

And it’s the younger families and couples who are leading the charge into the market.

When we look at what people are searching for, it’s clear that “small ensuite caravan” and ” lightweight 4 berth” seem to be on a whole lot of people’s minds. 

And the Cubby 15.5 is right in the sweet spot – a compact little number that’s easy to tow, yet still feels like a real home inside, not just an upgrade on the old camping gear.

Frontier 16D Dual Kitchen Hybrid Caravan

The Frontier 16D is made for couples who want a hybrid that packs a punch without being too big to handle. Think of it as a ‘proper’ touring setup that still fits in a driveway.

We’re talking a 16ft van here – and what do you get with that compact size? To start with, an internal kitchen that’s easily accessible, and a slide-out external kitchen that makes cooking outside a breeze. 

Add to that 2 x 300Ah lithium batteries (that’s 600Ah in total) to keep the power on, a 600W solar panel to soak up the sun, a 3000W inverter to keep the gadgets going and an electric roof to get you out of the elements in no time. 

And don’t forget the wireless reverse camera – that’s a game-changer for getting in and out of tight spots.

All of this is wrapped up in a hybrid body that can handle the rough stuff – not just bitumen, but dirt tracks and everything in between.

As for the price – expect it to land in the low to mid $60,000s, give or take a few grand. 

The Expedition 16D at $61,990 is a good benchmark, but you should still confirm the current drive-away price with the dealer – you never know what might change.

Flexible cooking with two kitchens – plus a prep zone

The real magic with the Frontier 16D is the dual kitchen setup.

Inside, you get:

• A bit of protected space for cooking on those wet or cold days when the great outdoors just isn’t so great.
• A prep and appliance zone on the bench – perfect for whipping up a snack or two when you’re in a hurry.

Outdoors, the slide-out kitchen lets you cook up a storm in comfort – no more messing up the interior with grease and grime, and you get to stay social under the awning while you cook.

In practice – couples generally cook outside for the better part of the year, then fall back to the internal kitchen when the weather turns nasty. 

It’s that kind of flexibility that makes the van feel like a real base – not just a fair-weather toy.

Electrifying your off-grid adventures

With a massive 600Ah lithium bank, 600W solar panels and a 3000W inverter to boot, this power system is geared up to keep you going off the grid with ease.

When you’re a couple on the move, chugging through 80-150Ah a day (and I don’t just mean the fridge, I mean the lights, the fans, the pumps and all your devices, plus the occasional jaunt into 240V territory) – that means:

• You’ve got the juice to sail through cloudy days without batting an eyelid.
• You can crank up those higher-draw appliances for a spell, no worries.
• You’re less likely to need those generators or to keep landing at powered sites.

And as Australia’s caravan population has swelled to over 900,000 rigs on the road – especially the younger lot who are looking to mix up all sorts of different stays – off-grid capability is starting to be the number one thing on more and more people’s wish lists.

Getting up high still keeps it real down low

The electric roof does a marvelous job of giving you the lower towing height of a hybrid with the room to stand up in a full van – and that’s a real winner.

So what does that mean for you?

• You’ll have less to worry about when it comes to squeezing into suburban storage or carports.
• You’ll be much lower profiled on the highways and in windy conditions.
• And it’s a real bonus when you’re setting up camp at the end of the day – it’s a breeze.

Paired with the hybrid body, you get the freedom to tackle tracks that would have been off-limits to taller rigs – all without sacrificing any of the insulation and security you need to feel safe and comfortable in your home on wheels.

Nano 10 – ultra compact caravan for the discerning traveller

The Nano 10 is designed with the needs of those who hate sacrificing comfort for the sake of size in mind.

At a snippily compact 10 ft long, weighing in at a manageable 1,600 kg ATM and a mere 40 kg ball weight, the Nano 10 makes towing and storing it in the suburbs a total breeze.

Current listings for the Nano 10 (the 10 ft Caravan with Ensuite option from Fantasy ) seem to be running at around $35,990 – although do keep in mind it’s been discounted from the original RRP of about $41,990. 

And don’t forget to factor in any government charges – it’s always a good idea to double check the latest drive-away price with your chosen dealer before making a decision.

Ultra compact shell without compromising on comfort

It’s quite amazing how much comfort the Nano 10 packs into its tiny 10ft footprint:

• A proper ensuite combo shower & toilet so you don’t have to rough it.
• A 102L fridge & microwave combo – perfect for when you’re on a tour.
• A kitchen with a functional bench & storage, because you can’t have too much of that.

For solo travellers, or couples, it basically means you can pull up to a tight spot, open the door, and you’ve got everything you need at your fingertips. No need to bother with annexes, tents or always having to go for a site with top class amenities.

Convertible Sofa Bed Bringing You Day & Night Flexibility

No more fixed island bed here, you can expect a convertible sofa bed with dimensions roughly 1600 x 1800mm (or so).

This design gives you a bunch of practical benefits such as:

• You can lounge around during the day and feel like you’re in a full-fledged living room – all crammed into a teeny tiny space.
• You’ve got a full bed at night, and not a single inch of floor space gets wasted all the time.
• If you’ve got guests popping by for coffee or a laptop session, it’s a doddle to turn the thing into a bed and you’re good to go.

For all you remote workers and slow travellers out there, having a day-night flexible space is more important than you might think.

You can really use the Nano 10 as a little studio apartment on wheels – not just some dingy sleeping pod.

Light Tow Weight Making it Easy to Hook Up to Most Vehicles

The Nano 10’s got a ball weight of around 40 kg and a tare of about 1247 kg – which is done by design to make it a breeze to tow with loads of medium-sized trucks.

So what does this mean?

• Less stress about having to worry about GVM and GCM margins all the time.
• You can get hitched up, unhitched and moved around on flat pads with minimal fuss.
• It’s also a great thing for newer tow vehicle owners and those downsizing to smaller rigs because it gives ’em a bit of breathing room.

Pair that with all the people using tools like Australian Consumer Search Insights to look up “micro caravan” and “10 ft ensuite” and you can see why the Nano 10 is getting a clear spot in the market with solo travellers, couples and grey nomads who just want a bit of comfort without having to haul around a big caravan.

The 15ft Expedition 15C Off Road Caravan, a King Bed Marvel

The Expedition 15C was built for serious off-road enthusiasts who want a compact, yet ultra-comfortable caravan that can keep up with their adventures without sacrificing a good night’s sleep or their need for power independence.

Measuring in at 15ft, it’s just compact enough to keep the overall length and weight under control, but still manages to squeeze in a massive king-size slide-out bed, a proper internal shower and loo, a fully equipped kitchen, 400Ah of lithium goodness, 600W of solar power, a 2000W inverter, coil off-road suspension to munch up all the rough stuff, and a DO35 hitch that’ll keep it all in place.

As for the cost, be prepared to part with around the mid-$80,000s to drive one of these babies home in Australia – but that’s just a ball-park figure. The actual price will depend on what options you want, who you buy it from and which state you live in, so always check with the manufacturer or dealership to get the latest pricing.

Small Footprint, Big Bed Comfort

At the heart of the Expedition 15C is a king-size slide-out bed that’s the real showstopper

In a 15ft off-road shell, it gives you:

• A proper “home bed” feel when you’re camping – the kind of comfort you crave after a long day on the road or hiking in the bush.
• Loads more room to move around than you’d get in a standard queen-sized bed.
• The ability to stretch out and relax in comfort after a long drive or a day’s hiking.

Because the bed slides out only when you’re set up, you get to keep the towing length nice and short

Which makes life a whole lot easier when it comes to:

• Sneaking into those tight national park campsites
• Navigating older caravan parks that are a bit tight on space
• Pulling into a servo forecourt or small-town main street without getting wedged

You get to tow a compact caravan, but you get to sleep like a king

Power System gets a serious ‘off-grid’ workout

A 400Ah Lithium bank paired up with 600W of solar and a 2000W inverter is a very capable off-grid setup for a couple.

Being realistic though, it lets a fair number of travellers:

• Get by on a 12V fridge, a few lights, some fans and a pump for days at a time.
• Run common 240V appliances like a kettle, the coffee machine, laptop chargers – but just in short bursts, mind.
• Recharge a pretty big chunk of daily usage on sunny days, so you’re not left scrambling.

If you assume people are drawing around 100-150Ah per day while touring, 400Ah provides a nice buffer – especially when you’ve got 600W of solar coming in.

That means instead of worrying “where’s the next powered site?” you’re now thinking “where do we actually want to stay next time?”

Off-road suspension and DO35 hitch – designed to be used

The off-road suspension and DO35 hitch don’t just look good in pictures – they’re there to make a real difference on the road.

Together, they help with:

• Articulation and stability on those gnarly corrugated tracks, or anything else that’s not a smooth bit of asphalt.
• Reducing shock and vibration through the whole chassis & cabinetry, so you’re not bouncing around like a jackrabbit.
• Safer towing angles when you hit a washout or navigate a spoon drain – it’s a game-changer for those who like to get out into the rough stuff.

For travellers who are into chasing station stays, outback detours or forest tracks, having this hardware under your van is the difference between “we’ll take our chances this time” and “our van was built for this – let’s see what it can do”.

15ft off-road vans with real bathrooms are the new favourite kid on the block

As Australia’s RV fleet has now tipped over 900,000 and more people are looking beyond the big coastal parks, demand for short, capable, self-contained vans has really taken off.

The Expedition 15C lands right in the sweet spot – small enough to sneak into places the bigger vans can’t get to, but still with a real bathroom, serious power system and a king bed that lets you do long trips without feeling like you’re just surviving – but actually living the dream.
