Torn between semi off-road and off-road caravans? Ask how gnarly your "gnarly" really is.
Semi off-road is happy on corrugations, gravel and tame fire trails, while full off-road is built for bulldust, water crossings and rutted tracks that rearrange crockery.
| Type | Pros | Cons |
|---|---|---|
| Semi off-road | Lighter, cheaper, easier to tow with mid-size SUVs; better fuel use; comfy on rough bitumen and graded dirt. | Less clearance and articulation; lighter sealing; not for rock steps, deep ruts or heavy sand. |
| Off-road | Heavy-duty chassis and suspension; higher clearance and protection; bigger tyres; off-grid hardware options (solar, tanks). | Heavier and pricier; needs a stout tow vehicle; more maintenance and fuel. |
Match the van to your routes and tow vehicle, not the campfire bravado; your ceramics will thank you.
