DriveNow's take: vehicle |  Jack's takeA budget-friendly 6 berth motorhome with diesel heater, large water capacity, and full self-contained facilities. The space and comfort for families come with the trade-off of being a larger vehicle to drive. About Kiwi 6 Berth DeluxeJack's takeThis 6 berth motorhome gives you proper family space without breaking the bank. The diesel heater and large water capacity make it comfortable for colder weather or longer stays away from facilities. After a week on the road, it feels properly liveable thanks to the generous interior space and large bench that creates a real cooking setup, not just a camp kitchen. You're trading compact handling and lower fuel use for full motorhome convenience. It's a proper big vehicle, but the automatic transmission helps first-timers who are confident managing something this size. Being certified self-contained opens up more campsite options across New Zealand. Just keep an eye on your water and waste levels — those 100L tanks are generous but still need planning with six people onboard. The house battery needs a powered site every second night, so book one night of off-power camping at a time before heading back to powered sites. | Jack's take One of the only 7 berth vehicles in New Zealand, this large self-contained motorhome fits big families or groups who want everyone in beds with full kitchen facilities, heating, and onboard bathroom comfort. The combination of diesel heating, hot water, and big tanks makes it far better suited to longer group trips than smaller campers. About Kiwi 7 Berth DeluxeJack's takeThis is one of the only 7 berth vehicles available in New Zealand — a large self-contained motorhome built for big families or groups who want to fit everyone in proper beds. You get full kitchen facilities, heating, and onboard bathroom comfort that smaller campers can't match. The combination of diesel heating, hot water, and big tanks makes this far better suited to longer group trips than cramped alternatives. After a week it stays practical for seven people if everyone keeps organised. The large fridge, full kitchen, bathroom, and storage do the heavy lifting, but you need to assign storage areas before leaving the depot — seven people's gear can overwhelm the living space very quickly. The trade-off is obvious: you give up easy parking and compact handling for maximum passenger capacity and full motorhome facilities. This works for confident drivers, and the automatic transmission helps, but the vehicle size is still a major adjustment if you haven't driven something this big before. Take a walk around the vehicle and note any blind spots. Avoid underground car parks and stay aware of your surroundings. Being certified self-contained is a major advantage for larger groups wanting more flexible campsite options — you're not stuck hunting for powered sites when travelling with seven people. | Jack's take The Kiwi Dart 2 Berth drives like a car, not a campervan, making it easy to handle for couples on a budget. You get comfort and efficiency without the bulk of larger motorhomes. About Kiwi Dart 2 BerthJack's takeThe Kiwi Dart 2 Berth drives like a car, not a campervan. That makes it one of the better first-time options if you're comfortable with manual transmission and want something budget to mid-range. You get a solid bed setup that works for extended trips, plus a practical kitchen with a good fridge and two-burner stove. The storage is well thought out for the size — you won't spend day five rearranging everything. The cab heating and air con help when conditions change. The trade-off? You're still in a compact 2-berth, so there's not much standing room and no shower. It's manual only, which rules it out if you only want automatics. This vehicle is certified self-contained with a diesel engine that gives strong fuel efficiency for longer routes. It's a solid upgrade from a sleepervan if you want compact but comfortable. One tip: get familiar with the power setup early. Understanding when the fridge and heating run off 12V versus 240V will make your free camping much smoother. | Jack's take A refurbished 4-berth Toyota Hiace that makes surprisingly good use of its compact space. Easy driving for small groups or families on a budget. About Kiwi Kiwi Hi 4Jack's takeThis refurbished Toyota Hiace is a budget-friendly 4-berth that punches above its weight. The layout makes surprisingly good use of the available space, so it feels roomier inside than you'd expect from a compact campervan. After a week it stays comfortable for couples and manageable for four travellers if everyone keeps gear organised. The automatic transmission and manageable size make it a good choice for first-time campervan travellers. You trade the luxury and bathroom space of a larger motorhome for easier driving, better fuel efficiency, and a more compact setup. For the budget price you're getting a slightly older but refurbished vehicle. The self-contained certification gives you more flexibility for overnight stops without needing fully serviced campsites every night. Make use of New Zealand's free camping options, but pack a portable phone charger to fill the gap between powered sites — you won't have access to power to recharge devices when freedom camping. | Jack's take A budget-friendly family campervan with enough sleeping space and practical features to handle a New Zealand road trip for four or five. The combination of compact size and five-person capacity makes it feel much easier to drive than many larger family motorhomes. About Kiwi Kiwi Hi 5Jack's takeThis is a budget-friendly family campervan that sleeps up to five people without the bulk of larger motorhomes. The compact size makes it much easier to drive than most family vehicles, and you can split costs among more travellers. After a week on the road, it remains practical for families, though smart packing becomes crucial. Storage space fills up quickly with five people, so stick to soft bags and keep only daily essentials within reach. If you're travelling with all adults, expect the space to feel cramped on longer journeys — you'll want to use the outdoors as your main living area. The automatic transmission and manageable size make this a good choice for first-time campervan travellers. You trade luxury space and full bathroom facilities for affordability and easier handling. The self-contained certification and included living equipment mean you're ready to travel straight away — no need to buy extras. This vehicle works particularly well for two adults who want separate beds, giving you flexibility without paying for a larger motorhome. | Jack's take A step up from a basic sleepervan that gives couples a comfortable living space, proper cooking facilities, and certified self-contained status without moving into a large motorhome. The walk-through access between the cab and living area makes roadside stops and bad weather much more convenient. About Kiwi Kiwi 2Jack's takeThis is a solid step up from a basic sleepervan. You get a comfortable living space for couples with proper cooking facilities and certified self-contained status, but you're not dealing with a large motorhome. The walk-through access between the cab and living area is something you'll appreciate every day — it makes roadside stops, bad weather, and overnight stays much more convenient than constantly getting in and out of the vehicle. After a week, it's very manageable for two people. The fridge, microwave, running water, and two-burner stove mean you can comfortably prepare proper meals rather than relying on takeaway food. The trade-off for this affordability is that you're giving up the premium features of newer models and driving simplicity — the manual transmission won't suit every traveller. You also won't have the headspace indoors or proper bathroom facilities of a larger motorhome. This works well for first-timers, as long as they're comfortable driving a manual vehicle. The camper setup is easy to understand, and it's a great middle ground between a budget sleepervan and a full-sized campervan. Being certified self-contained opens up more overnight parking and free camping options throughout New Zealand. Before you leave, take a few minutes to learn where the fresh water, waste water, and portable toilet are located. Understanding the self-containment system early will make your trip much smoother. | Jack's take A budget-premium 4 berth motorhome with an island bed, drop-down bed, full kitchen, and excellent space for comfortable touring. The rear island bed and privacy divider make it feel much more like a small apartment than a standard camper. About Kiwi Kiwi Cruise 4 BerthJack's takeThis is a budget-premium 4 berth motorhome that punches above its weight. You get an island bed, drop-down bed, full kitchen, and excellent space for comfortable touring. The rear island bed and privacy divider make it feel much more like a small apartment than a standard camper. After a week it feels very comfortable, with proper beds, strong kitchen facilities, good heating, and enough space to avoid feeling cramped. The child seat compatibility and certified self-contained setup make it a strong option for families wanting comfort without sacrificing flexibility. The trade-off is size. You give up compact driving and easy parking for luxury, privacy, and a much more relaxed living experience. The vehicle itself is an older model than some other providers offer, but the layout and features make up for it. This works for first-timers, but only if you're comfortable with a large manual motorhome. The living setup is easy but the size can be difficult for new hirers when paired with a manual transmission. Pack up the drop-down bed and store away the bedding properly each morning so the front living space stays open and uncluttered. | Jack's take A mid-range self-contained camper that's compact to drive while still offering a bathroom, heating, and off-grid capability. The rooftop solar panel is a standout feature for free camping, though we recommend staying at powered sites every second night. About Kiwi Kiwi Deluxe 2/3 STJack's takeThis is a comfortable self-contained camper that balances size with features. You get a bathroom, heating, and off-grid capability in a compact package that's easy to drive and fuel-efficient. The automatic transmission and manageable size make it excellent for first-time campervan travellers. The rooftop solar panel is the standout feature here — it's great backup for the house battery when you're free camping. You can generally spend one night off-grid at a time, though we recommend staying at powered sites every second night to keep everything topped up. After a week on the road, it feels comfortable for two adults. The bathroom, heating, and roomy bed make long-distance travel much easier than smaller vans. You're trading some passenger and storage space for this comfort, but you get a more manageable, fuel-efficient vehicle in return. The combination of self-contained certification, diesel heating, and solar support makes this a strong option for flexible New Zealand touring. Just keep an eye on your battery use if you're planning multiple nights without power. |  Julie's takeA spacious, self-contained 2-berth campervan with solid comfort and full facilities, without blowing the budget. Its length makes it feel more like a small motorhome than a campervan, especially on a longer trip. About Kiwi Kiwi Deluxe Euro 2 STJulie's takeThis is a spacious, self-contained 2-berth campervan that gives you solid comfort and full facilities without stretching the budget. Its length makes it feel more like a small motorhome than a campervan, especially on a longer trip. It's genuinely comfortable for two over a week on the road. The big bed means you're not compromising on sleep, and the 110L fridge, four-burner stove and microwave make proper meals easy rather than just camping food. The trade-off is manoeuvrability. You give up compact driving and easy parking in exchange for that extra space and comfort. We'd still put a first-timer in this vehicle, but take it slowly at first, especially when parking and manoeuvring. Take 10 minutes to practice parking and turning before you head off. It's also self-contained certified, with diesel heating and solar support, which makes it a strong option for flexible touring around New Zealand. | Jack's take A spacious and self-contained 2 berth camper that delivers solid comfort and full facilities while staying budget-friendly. The extra-large bed and proper onboard heating make it much more comfortable for longer or colder New Zealand trips than some other budget campers. About Kiwi Kiwi Euro 2 STJack's takeThis 2-berth camper gives you spacious comfort and full facilities without the premium price. The extra-large bed and proper onboard heating set it apart from other budget options — particularly valuable for longer trips or New Zealand's colder months. After a week on the road, it still feels very liveable. The bathroom, strong kitchen setup, and roomy interior mean you won't feel cramped. The foldaway dining table is clever — use it to keep the space feeling open when you're not eating. Being self-contained with generous water capacity gives you flexibility to camp away from powered sites. Just plan to reconnect every second night or so to recharge the house battery. The trade-off? You're getting affordability and practical comfort over modern styling. Also check transmission preference when booking — this fleet has both manual and automatic vehicles, so confirm which you're getting if it matters to you. | Jack's take A comfortable 4 berth motorhome in a slightly older budget-friendly model with flexible twin, king, or double bed options, ideal for families or couples wanting extra space. The rear beds convert into a huge king setup giving it a much more premium sleeping feel than many standard 4 berth motorhomes in the same budget range. About Kiwi Kiwi Ranger 4 BerthJack's takeThis comfortable 4 berth motorhome gives you flexible sleeping with twin, king, or double bed options — ideal for families or couples wanting extra space. The rear beds convert into a huge king setup, giving it a much more premium sleeping feel than many standard 4 berth motorhomes in the same budget range. After a week it feels very liveable thanks to the overall size, proper oven and grill, good water capacity, and flexible sleeping layout. The strong battery capacity and self-contained certification make it great for longer New Zealand touring with one night off-grid at a time throughout your trip. The trade-off? Being an older vehicle, you'll see some standard wear and tear that comes with the cheaper price. You also trade easy city driving and compact parking for that extra space and storage. This works for drivers confident with a large manual vehicle — the living setup is very user-friendly, but there are better options if you're not comfortable driving manual in a vehicle this size. Take a walk around before leaving to check blindspots and note any existing marks on the rental agreement with the depot. | Jack's take A brand-new self-contained campervan that combines modern comfort, off-grid capability, and easy driving into a compact hi-top camper package. The mix of solar power, induction cooking, and diesel heating makes it feel like an upgrade from a typical hi-top campervan. About Kiwi Kiwi Traveller 2 STJack's takeThis brand-new self-contained campervan delivers a modern "tiny home on wheels" experience without stepping up to a full motorhome. The mix of solar power, induction cooking, and diesel heating makes it feel like an upgrade from a typical hi-top campervan. After a week it remains very comfortable for two people thanks to the bathroom, heating, modern tech features, and efficient off-grid setup. Pack light with soft luggage to keep the campervan from getting crowded. First-timers will love this van. The automatic transmission, reversing camera, and modern driver aids make it one of the most beginner-friendly options available. Being newer, there's also less risk of mechanical issues on the road. The trade-off? You give up larger living space and extra sleeping capacity for a more compact, fuel-efficient, and easy-to-handle camper. The vehicle's newer age generally comes at a reasonable premium compared to others in this category. Before you drive away, learn how the solar system, fridge cooling levels and induction cooktop work. Smart power management makes off-grid camping less of a worry about when your power will run out. | Jack's take One of the better-value options for three travellers with proper cooking facilities, plenty of storage, and separate beds. You get a practical layout without stepping up to a much larger campervan. About Kiwi Original 3Jack's takeThis is one of the better-value options for three travellers. You get proper cooking facilities, plenty of storage, and separate beds without stepping up to a much larger campervan. The kitchen in the main cabin makes meal preparation much easier than basic sleepervans that have the kitchen area in the boot. The roof bed gives you good flexibility for splitting costs with a third traveller or travelling as a couple with a child. Pack the bed away during the day so you have proper living space inside the vehicle. It's surprisingly comfortable for a budget camper — the practical layout makes day-to-day travel easy. The trade-off is modern driving convenience. You're looking at a manual transmission, which may not suit everyone, particularly if you're unfamiliar with driving manual vehicles on New Zealand's winding roads. If you've only ever driven automatics, look at another option. The camper setup itself is straightforward, making this a good choice for first-timers who are comfortable with manual transmission. Spend a few minutes learning how the roof bed works before you leave — it's simple once you've done it once, but knowing the setup process makes arriving at your first campsite much easier. This vehicle isn't currently certified self-contained, so plan to use campgrounds and facilities where required. Check the vehicle for any existing damage and ask staff any setup questions before departing. | Jack's take Budget-friendly sleepervan for two. Easy to drive, reliable, and comes with the basics for a simple New Zealand road trip without spending a fortune. About Kiwi Original Black SheepJack's takeThis budget-friendly sleepervan gives you the basics for a New Zealand road trip without breaking the bank. The automatic transmission and compact size make it dead easy to drive, even if you've never been behind the wheel of a campervan before. The bed is generously sized for a sleepervan and comfortable for most couples, but here's the trade-off: it takes up most of the living space. You'll spend more time outdoors or in common areas than hanging out inside the van, especially if the weather turns bad. There's no standing room and very limited indoor space for extended hanging around. Cooking is basic with the single-burner portable setup, so stick to simple meals. Storage is adequate for backpackers, but after a few days you'll want to stay organised or things start to feel cluttered. The straightforward setup means there's not much to learn before hitting the road — perfect for first-time campervan travellers. This vehicle isn't certified self-contained, so you'll need holiday parks, campgrounds, or facilities where toilets and waste services are available. It's best suited to travellers planning to spend most of their time exploring rather than living inside the van. Do a quick practice run of setting up the bed before leaving the depot. It only takes a few minutes and makes your first night much smoother. | Jack's take A simple, affordable camper for two that gives you the essentials without the extras. Easy to drive, comfortable enough for a road trip, and ideal for budget-conscious couples. About Kiwi Original SleeperJack's takeThis is a no-frills camper that works well for couples on a budget road trip. You get the basics — a 20L fridge, built-in sink in the boot, and sleeping for two — without paying for features you might not need. The built-in sink makes day-to-day living easier than hiring a regular car. You can wash dishes, fill water bottles, and clean up after meals without hunting for facilities. The setup works well if you're spending most of your time sightseeing and using the van as a place to sleep. After a few days, the compact size becomes noticeable. The narrow bed and low interior height mean it can feel cramped if you're stuck inside during bad weather. You're trading off space and comfort for affordability — there's no room to stand up or much indoor living space compared to larger campervans. It's perfect for first-timers. The vehicle is compact, automatic, and straightforward to operate. If you've never driven a campervan before, this is a stress-free place to start. Pack soft bags instead of hard suitcases. Storage space is limited, and flexible luggage is much easier to tuck away and keep the living area organised. The vehicle isn't certified self-contained, so you'll need to stay somewhere with access to toilet facilities. It's best suited to travellers planning a classic road-trip style holiday rather than extended freedom camping. |
DriveNow's take: supplier | Julie's take Kiwi Campers is a budget-focused supplier in New Zealand with a mixed, often older fleet. They're a solid pick if keeping the price down matters more than a newer or more comfortable van. About KiwiJulie's takeKiwi Campers is aimed squarely at the budget end of the New Zealand campervan market. The fleet is mixed and often older, and condition varies quite a bit from vehicle to vehicle, so it's worth checking exactly what you're booking before you commit. What they do well is price. If keeping the cost of your trip down is the priority, Kiwi Campers is worth a look — their range of budget campervans is one of the better ones out there. Just go in with realistic expectations. Some vehicles are older and show normal wear and tear. Don't expect a brand-new or showroom-condition camper — you're paying for a budget option, and that's the trade-off. Pickup is straightforward. Kiwi Campers offers free transfers from Auckland and Christchurch Airports, plus selected nearby accommodation, on both pickup and drop-off day. If something goes wrong on the road, Kiwi Campers is backed by New Zealand Roadside Assistance (NZRA) 24-hour emergency breakdown cover and a nationwide network of service agents. We can also authorise you to spend up to $100 on emergency repairs yourself, so you can sort minor issues quickly or whenever suits you — just keep the receipt and bring it back for a refund. Our pick from the fleet is the Kiwi Traveller 2 ST. It's one of their newer 2024/2025 vehicles, so you get a step up from the older, more basic campers while sticking with Kiwi Campers. It's also fully self-contained with a shower and toilet, which makes a real difference in comfort for two people. We'd recommend Kiwi Campers to travellers chasing the cheapest campervan option who are happy to compromise on age, condition and comfort. If you want something newer or more comfortable, this isn't the supplier for you. One more thing: if your trip covers both islands, book your Interislander or Bluebridge ferry crossing well ahead in summer, and confirm your vehicle is cleared for ferry travel before you lock in your dates. | Julie's take Kiwi Campers is a budget-focused supplier in New Zealand with a mixed, often older fleet.

Our pick from the fleet is the Kiwi Traveller 2 ST. It's one of their newer 2024/2025 vehicles, so you get a step up from the older, more basic campers while sticking with Kiwi Campers. It's also fully self-contained with a shower and toilet, which makes a real difference in comfort for two people. We'd recommend Kiwi Campers to travellers chasing the cheapest campervan option who are happy to compromise on age, condition and comfort. If you want something newer or more comfortable, this isn't the supplier for you. One more thing: if your trip covers both islands, book your Interislander or Bluebridge ferry crossing well ahead in summer, and confirm your vehicle is cleared for ferry travel before you lock in your dates. | Julie's take Kiwi Campers is a budget-focused supplier in New Zealand with a mixed, often older fleet.

Each bed's length × width in metres. Compare the length with the tallest person travelling, and the width with who is sharing.
The bed types in this comparison:
Dinette or lounge bed
The dining or lounge seats convert into a bed. The same space is used for sitting during the day and sleeping at night.
Upper and lower beds
Beds arranged one above the other inside the vehicle. The upper bed may have a weight limit, shown in the vehicle details where confirmed.
Rear bed
A bed at the back of the vehicle. Its position does not tell you whether it stays made up or converts from seating; check Main bed setup for that.
Double bed
One shared bed for two people. Compare the dimensions, as double beds differ in size between vehicles.
Single bed
A separate bed for one person. Some are child berths; check the sleeping capacity and dimensions in the table.

A toilet and shower on board mean you can stay at basic or free campsites without amenities, and skip the night-time walk to a shared block. With a toilet only, you have the essentials; with neither, plan to stay where there are facilities.
An onboard toilet needs emptying at a dump point every few days.
More in the handbook: Emptying the toilet and waste tanks
The fridge's capacity in litres; a range means it depends on the vehicle you're given. A bigger fridge means fewer shopping stops, which matters most for families and on remote stretches.
How the fridge is powered when you're parked affects how long it keeps food cold away from a powered site.
More in the handbook: Using the fridge
Not specified means the supplier doesn't publish this for that model. It doesn't mean the vehicle lacks it.
Heating or air-conditioning for the living area with the engine off. Many units only run at a powered site, while some heaters run from gas or the house battery, so check what each one needs.
Cab air-conditioning only works while driving. Portable heaters or fans may be included or available to hire.

Hot water makes showers and washing up easier, especially in cooler months. Without it, you'll heat water on the cooker for dishes.
Where shown, the energy source tells you what the hot water runs on.
Not specified means the supplier doesn't publish this for that model. It doesn't mean the vehicle lacks it.
Longer vehicles have more room inside but are harder to park in town and need a bigger campsite. A range means it depends on the vehicle you're given.
Ferry fares for campervans are usually charged by length.
More in the handbook: Ferry costs
Clean water for drinking, cooking and washing. A bigger tank means longer between refills, which matters at free campsites without taps. A range means it depends on the vehicle you're given.
How long it lasts depends on how you use it, especially for showers.
More in the handbook: Fresh water
Not specified means the supplier doesn't publish this for that model. It doesn't mean the vehicle lacks it.
How much standing room there is inside. Taller travellers will be more comfortable with more headroom; in low-roof campers most people can't stand upright.
What you can cook on inside the vehicle. The number of burners affects how much you can cook at once, which matters for a group.
Gas cooktops run from an LPG bottle that you refill or swap on the road.
More in the handbook: Using the gas bottle
Used water from the sink and shower collects in the grey-water tank. A bigger tank means fewer stops at a dump point, and some campsites don't let you drain it on the ground.
It's separate from the toilet, which has its own cassette or tank.

Not specified means the supplier doesn't publish this for that model. It doesn't mean the vehicle lacks it.
Everyone travelling needs their own seatbelt, so this is the most people the vehicle can carry, even if it sleeps more. Some seats are in the living area rather than the cab.
More in the handbook: Will I need multiple vehicles?
Child seats need suitable seat positions and anchor points, and some positions only take a booster. The combination shown is what the supplier allows, so check it covers every child's age and size.
Child seats are usually hired from the supplier as an extra.

How you can play music, connect a phone and watch a screen. A screen doesn't guarantee TV reception or DVD playback, and listed USB ports may not charge every device quickly.
Where it says some models, it isn't guaranteed in every vehicle of that model.

Not specified means the supplier doesn't publish this for that model. It doesn't mean the vehicle lacks it.
How wide the vehicle is affects narrow country roads, standard car parks and tight campsites. A range means it depends on the vehicle you're given.
Multi-storey car parks, drive-throughs and some bridges have height limits, so know your vehicle's height before you set off. A raised-roof height, where shown, applies when the roof is lifted while parked.
More in the handbook: Vehicle height awareness
Not specified means the supplier doesn't publish this for that model. It doesn't mean the vehicle lacks it.
How the vehicle is powered when parked. At a powered site everything runs; off-grid, the house battery and any solar run the lights, fridge and charging.
Not every appliance works from every source: air-conditioning and microwaves usually need mains power.
More in the handbook: What works off-grid
Not specified means the supplier doesn't publish this for that model. It doesn't mean the vehicle lacks it.
Cab air-conditioning or heating makes long drives more comfortable. It runs with the engine, so it doesn't cool or heat the living area when you're parked; see Heating & cooling when parked.
Not specified means the supplier doesn't publish this for that model. It doesn't mean the vehicle lacks it.
Most rental campervans are automatic, and some older or budget models are manual. If you only drive automatics, make sure every vehicle you're considering is one.
The supplier's age range for this model. You're given one vehicle from within it, so Up to 2 years means it has been on the supplier's fleet for no more than about two years, 4+ years means at least four, and 4–7 years means between four and seven.
Newer vehicles generally show less wear and are more likely to have recent equipment. Older vehicles have usually covered more kilometres, which raises the chance of a breakdown. Older fleets are often the budget option, and a well-maintained older camper can still suit a trip.
Suppliers count age differently. Some count time on their fleet, others go by model year, so treat a one-year difference as approximate.

A fixed bed stays made up, so you can rest at any time without rearranging. A bed made from the dinette or lounge gives you more living space by day, but takes a few minutes to set up each night and pack away each morning.
Some dinette beds can be left made up if you don't need the table.
Not specified means the supplier doesn't publish this for that model. It doesn't mean the vehicle lacks it.
In many smaller campers the table becomes the bed, so once the bed is made there's nowhere inside to sit and eat. A separate table matters on rainy days, or when someone wants to sleep while others are still up.
Not specified means the supplier doesn't publish this for that model. It doesn't mean the vehicle lacks it.
In a combined wet room the toilet sits inside the shower, so the whole room gets wet when you shower. A separate toilet and shower works more like home but takes more space.
Not specified means the supplier doesn't publish this for that model. It doesn't mean the vehicle lacks it.
A table and chairs make it easy to eat and relax outside, which helps most in smaller campers. Some suppliers include them; others hire them out per trip, so check before comparing prices.

An outdoor or slide-out cooker keeps cooking smells and heat out of the living area, which helps in warm weather and in small campers. Many campsites also have shared barbecues.
Not specified means the supplier doesn't publish this for that model. It doesn't mean the vehicle lacks it.
A reversing camera makes parking a large vehicle much easier, because you can't see directly behind most campers. Some models means only some vehicles in the fleet have one, so you may not get it.
Not specified means the supplier doesn't publish this for that model. It doesn't mean the vehicle lacks it.
An outside locker keeps bulky or dirty gear, such as chairs, hoses or wet shoes, out of the living area. Space inside is limited, so soft bags pack more easily.

Not specified means the supplier doesn't publish this for that model. It doesn't mean the vehicle lacks it.
With a walk-through you can move between the cab and the living area without getting out, which is handy in rain or at night. Without one, you step outside to get from one to the other.
Not specified means the supplier doesn't publish this for that model. It doesn't mean the vehicle lacks it.
A microwave that needs mains power only works at a powered site, not when you're free camping.

Not specified means the supplier doesn't publish this for that model. It doesn't mean the vehicle lacks it.
A solar panel tops up the house battery during the day, which helps run the lights and fridge away from a powered site. How much it adds depends on the panel, the weather and how much power you use.

Not specified means the supplier doesn't publish this for that model. It doesn't mean the vehicle lacks it.
Whether pots, pans, plates and cutlery come with the vehicle. Most suppliers include a kitchen kit; some charge for it as an extra, so check what's included before comparing prices.
