Australian-made Recreational Caravans are on the rise

by RV Sales RV Sales Australia

From around 2015 the manufacture of cars has declined but the manufacture of recreational caravans has been increasing at an ever-increasing pace. Over 7 million Australians have taken a holiday with a caravan or off-road vehicle in the past 2 years and those numbers are predicted to keep rising. This is in part due to newer families joining the existing grey nomads, and also in part due to an aging population of Baby Boomers who are now moving into retirement. Over 40% of existing sales are from buyers who are over 55.

Australian Manufacturers take on Caravans

We’ve seen the decline of car sales across the board in the recent years and what has taken its place is the increase of new and used caravans. Whether they are recreational caravans for a once a year holiday or a more serious vehicle that will be on the road for months on end. Seeing our Big Country is a major goal for many visitors and residents and Australian Caravan manufacturers have stepped up to meet demands.

Why Recreational Caravans are popular

The simple answer is that a caravan is convenient. Adventurers can park in popular tourist spots, meet other like-minded travellers, see all the sights and have a consistent, reliable home-base to come back to without checking in or checking out. Owners of RV’s have choice. They can choose where they go, when they go, for how long they will stay. And after returning to your home state, caravan storage is now easier than ever with reputable RV Sales companies offering on-site storage.

New or used caravans. Both are good investments.

A less obvious reason why recreational caravans are taking an upswing is that the resale values have remained robust on used caravans and the acquisition of a recreational caravan, new or used is now seen as good value, both on, and off the road.

The good news is that over 70% of new caravans are made in Australia. This also means that parts and maintenance remain largely local and easier to come by. There has never been a better time to jump on board for an adventure of a lifetime.
