New Explorer Group caravans for 2015

68daf651-db46-4ffb-9753-4041e7e2f3a6
The Explorer Group is launching 13 new models in three of its four caravan ranges for 2015.
 
Changes for 2015 include the introduction of AL-KO chassis, replacing BPW, on all ranges except Buccaneer.
 
Layered Ozio mattresses and seating upholstery will be introduced on all ranges, replacing sprung construction. Ozio is a new upholstery construction which uses polyester fibres, layered to form a breathable, durable construction.
 
Weights are being reduced in the Elddis Crusader and Compass Rallye ranges; exact weights are yet to be announced.
 
Most prices are rising although some models stay the same.
 
Buccaneers will be 2.44m wide, which is 14cm wider than previous models, and will have self-levelling systems plus under-floor Alde heating.
 
There are two new layouts in the Xplore range, both designed for families. The 434 has two lounge areas; the rear one makes into a bedroom for two. The 526 also has two living areas; the rear sector contains bunk beds and a dining area which makes into two more bunks.
 
There are two new layouts in the Elddis ranges, one in Avanté and one in Affinity.
 
The new Avanté is a four-berth, family-layout twin-lounge model, the 564. The new Affinity is a 554, with a transverse island bed.

The Crusader range goes into 2015 largely unchanged in terms of layouts. What has changed, though, are weights. Single axle models are now all under 1550kg and the twin-axle Tempest and Supercyclone and under 1790kg.
 
Compass goes into 2015 with two ranges, the Corona and Rallye.
 
The number of Corona layouts goes up from four to six.

Rallye models will go down in weight, making single-axle models less than 1500kg and the two twin-axle models less than 1750kg MTPLM. Exact weights are yet to be announced.
 
The Rallye range doubles its size for 2015, with four new models.
 
Three new layouts appear in the Buccaneer range, all with island beds.
