It’s rare to see fully off-grid caravans with the features of luxury caravans, but Retreat’s off-grid range has redefined the industry. From the all-electric ERV to the tough Daydream and the road-conquering Fraser, we’ve pushed off-grid caravanning to a new level. Key features include the robust supergal chassis, 6” A-frame, corrosion-resistant independent off-road suspension, solar power system, water filtration, hot water system, backup lithium battery, and a single-piece roof stretching from the front to the back of the caravan.
Other standout features include a roll-out awning, outdoor shower, TV and audio system, fridge, air-conditioner, microwave, grill, fiberglass shower, and innerspring mattress complete with pillows and a doona. Everything you need for comfort while off the grid is included.
At Retreat, safety is our top priority. That’s why all our caravans are fitted with durable, corrosion-resistant independent suspension systems designed to handle rough roads and tough terrain. With these systems, your Retreat off-grid caravan is ready for any adventure across Australia.
The ERV is the world’s first all-electric caravan, engineered to take on long distances and handle various terrains. Equipped with Alpha Suspensions’ 4.4t independent suspension system, it offers both comfort and stability, making it perfect for the open road.
The Daydream, fitted with the Alpha Suspensions 4.4t system, delivers excellent towing performance. It’s built to handle Australia’s toughest roads while offering exceptional comfort for your off-grid journey.
The Fraser features Alpha Suspensions’ 3.7T independent system, providing superior road handling and safety. It’s designed to ensure a smooth ride, even on the most rugged roads.
A solid off-grid caravan elevates your camping experience, no matter what type of terrain you plan to tackle. Whether you’re traveling through the outback, national parks, or beach tracks, choosing the best off-grid caravan is essential. Here are the key factors to consider:
The key feature of any great off-grid caravan is its suspension. It should ensure a smooth ride and protect the caravan from damage. Independent suspension is the best option for rough, uneven terrain.
An off-grid caravan’s coupling must allow the head to move freely on both vertical and horizontal axes. This flexibility reduces pressure on the chassis, especially when driving over bumpy, uneven terrain.
The chassis is the foundation of any off-grid caravan. To handle Australia’s harsh outback, it must be made of strong, high-quality steel. Retreat’s supergal chassis, combined with a stone shield mounted under the drawbar, offers added protection from rocks and debris, ensuring the longevity of your caravan.
Retreat’s off-grid caravans feature a fully interlocked aluminium frame with welded roof and wall panels. These are held together with anti-vibration pins for strength and style. Inside, Retreat’s RXP construction provides enhanced thermal insulation, keeping the cabin comfortable no matter the season. The RXP composite material is also water-resistant and backed by a lifetime Rot-Free Structural Guarantee.
A higher ground clearance ensures there’s enough space between the caravan’s chassis and obstacles on the road. We recommend a minimum clearance of 500mm and a departure angle of 40 degrees or more for true off-grid caravanning.
All-terrain tyres are designed for off-grid travel. They feature a stronger carcass construction, higher load ratings, and deeper tread patterns, offering better performance on dirt roads and rough surfaces.
Retreat offers three off-grid caravan models, each with features designed for comfort and adventure.
The Fraser offers 21 different floor plans, making it one of the most versatile and popular models in the Retreat range. This durable caravan is packed with features that will make your next off-grid adventure unforgettable.
The Daydream comes with 13 floor plans, some featuring single bed configurations. It’s customizable to your needs, offering the comfort of home while handling the most challenging terrains with ease.
The ERV comes with four floor plans, each designed to offer maximum convenience and comfort. With 2,400 watts of solar power and 14.3 kWh battery storage, this caravan provides all the power you need for off-grid living. Enjoy total freedom while staying connected to the comforts of home.
