Austrack Campers has added a new hybrid caravan to their off-road lineup with the Austrack Gibbs 16. With two different layout options, you can choose between the Gibbs 16 for couples (sleeps two) or the Gibbs 16 Family (sleeps four). Regardless of which layout you choose, you’ll be spoilt with a whole lot of comforts. Check them out here!
An indoor and outdoor kitchen
On the inside, expect to find a 190L Thetford fridge/freezer, 2-burner stove and sink, and a slide-out pantry. If you’re a fan of alfresco cooking, you can make use of the external slide-out kitchen. This includes an Arctic fridge/Freezer, slide-out pantry and external bar with a built-in chopping board.
Sleeping and bathroom
Both versions offer a queen size plush mattress, but the Austrack Gibbs 16 Family also features two bunks for kids. When it comes to the bathroom, both models include an internal and external ensuite. The couple’s caravan additionally includes a separate toilet.
Comforts from home
Enjoy the comforts of home while you’re away. Think a reverse cycle air conditioner, Bluetooth stereo, HDTV with external and internal mounts, fully plumbed gas and water connections, diesel heater, antenna and a Truma gas/electric hot water system. Nice.
Power
Explorers can get off-grid longer with the help of 400 Watt roof-mounted solar panels, a 300AH lithium battery, Redarc Manager30 (complete battery management and charging system), and a Redarc 2kW pure sinewave inverter. All the while, enjoying the convenience of 240V inlets and outlets.
Others comforts
