RV REVIEW

CRUISING IN THE SNOWY!

Snowy River Caravans is not a company that’ s happy to rest on its laurels. This RV brand has, in fact, become one of the largest in Australia with a value offering that other manufacturers have struggled to match.

The latest from Snowy River, however, is a quite a departure from what we’ ve seen from this manufacturer. For 2026, the company has launched a range of B class campervans based on the Ford Transit 430E platform. It’ s an interesting moment in Australia’ s RV industry: more and more traditional caravan builders are turning their attention and tools towards converting commercial vans into campervans in order to capture the attention of the wider travelling public.

It’ s still early days in Snowy River’ s campervan journey. The lineup was just launched in two different sizes, 19ft and 22ft, with three layout options in the 22ft model.

I received word that a 22-footer was available out of Snowy River’ s Frankston, Vic, dealership, and I wasted no time in taking the wheel of the SRV 22.2( layout option 2) and pointing the bonnet in the direction of Rosebud, a beachside town on the Mornington Peninsula.
