RV REVIEW
“THE CARIA EVORA
IN NO WAY FEELS
CRAMPED.”
Caria has been a mainstay in the toyhauler market.
And Victorian dealership Canterbury Caravans has
taken a particular interest in the brand, having sold
them now for about four years.
In fact, Canterbury Caravans has offered guidance
to Caria in order to refine the models. For example,
Caria vans previously were framed with steel, while
nowadays they use aluminium.
The feedback has also led to a more consistent
offering. “Caria now also has three or four set
models in the range – in the past they were custom-
built and it would take a customer six or eight
months to get their van,” Canterbury Caravans
sales manager Ian Sadler said.
FAMILY TIES
The Evora is one of the latest toyhaulers in Caria’s
line-up. Interestingly, it’s proving popular with
young families who are using the space to haul
push bikes and kayaks.
With a front east-west bed, an amidships kitchen
and combo bathroom, and a ‘garage’ in the back
that converts into a lounge/dining area, the van
in no way feels cramped.
The two lounges (one either side) in the rear double
as single beds for the kids, and I’m told you can
have additional beds fitted above the lounges if
yours is a larger family. When it’s time to load
up the bulky gear, the beds fold back against the
walls to create the essential space, and the centre
table is just as quick to remove.
