MDC has gone big with the release of its brand-new 22ft on-road caravan – the Forte SR22 CLUB (pronounced “Fort”). This latest addition joins the popular Forte SR Series, which hit the market earlier this year. The SR22 CLUB is now the largest of the lot, making it the 8th model in the range, and it’s set to debut at the Melbourne Caravan & Camping Leisurefest on October 3 at Sandown Racecourse.
Built with MDC’s trademark reliability, the Forte SR22 CLUB is perfect for families looking for a quality on-road caravan without breaking the bank. Packed with features you’d rarely see at this price point, the SR22 CLUB kicks off at an impressive $79,990. At around 2700kg and with an ATM rating of 3200kg, this beauty can be towed by most 4WDs and dual-cab utes, so it’s ready to hit the road.
“This new floorplan marks a significant addition to MDC’s lineup, with the Forte SR22 CLUB featuring high-quality standard inclusions and innovative features that are rarely found in this segment of the market,” says Vaughan Hindley, MDC’s Managing Director and Founder.
Leveraging over 15 years of experience in tough off-road caravan design, MDC has brought their expertise to this on-road marvel. Built on a hot-dipped galvanised chassis with independent trailing arm suspension and an aluminium body frame, the Forte SR22 CLUB comes with a solid 5-year structural and chassis warranty – so you can hit the road with confidence.
Comfort meets practicality
The Forte SR22 CLUB’s layout has been meticulously designed to maximise space and functionality without skimping on luxury. The spacious rear club lounge is ideal for relaxing after a long day of adventuring and can convert into an extra bed for those surprise guests.
One standout feature is the centre ensuite – a first for MDC – which brings the comforts of home on the road, complete with a roomy shower, wash basin, and Thetford cassette toilet. Up front, you’ll find a private bedroom with a queen-sized island bed, separated from the living areas by solid doors – making the SR22 CLUB feel like a home on wheels, ideal for anything from weekend getaways to longer escapes.
Power and practicality
Much like the rest of the Forte SR series, the SR22 CLUB is equipped with 350W of solar, a Projecta 25A MPPT solar controller, a 1600W pure sine wave inverter, and a 200Ah Lithium Iron Phosphate Battery – giving you reliable power wherever the road takes you.
The caravan’s kitchen is kitted out with top-notch appliances, including a Thetford 175L compressor fridge, gas oven/hob combo, and a microwave, with a top-loading washing machine hidden away. The Truma Ultrarapid Hot Water System ensures hot water on demand, and with a Dometic Freshjet Series 7 Pro Air Conditioner and dual 12V Caframo Sirocco II fans, you’ll stay cool in the Aussie heat.
