RV PROFILE
Rounding out the power system is a new 3000W inverter with shunt, a significant addition that provides almost home-like electricity / power for virtually any appliance, from coffee machines and laptops to kitchen appliances and entertainment systems, eliminating the compromise typically associated with remote camping.
While protection and power are highpoints of the vans, the newlook High Country includes exterior refinements. The new heavy-duty edge capping with engraved logo corners serves dual purposes: the engraved logos add a distinctive aesthetic, while the improved construction should prove durable against the inevitable impacts encountered on rough tracks.
SMARTER INTERIOR LAYOUT
Stepping inside the 18ft 6in High Country reveals a thoughtfully designed space that makes excellent use of the available dimensions. While many caravans of this length opt for a north-south bed arrangement, Australis has chosen to retain an east-west bed in the front – a decision that pays dividends in the living space.
By keeping the bed configuration compact, the designers have freed up valuable real estate to include a number of smart storage solutions. The bedroom features a wardrobe and additional cupboard storage at the end of the bed – elements often sacrificed in smaller models. These aren ' t token storage spaces either; they ' re genuinely useful for longer trips where organisation becomes increasingly important.
