Carlight are going mainstream

Carlight Caravans has announced plans to launch a brand new range of entry level caravans, with prices ranging from £17,995 to around £27,000.

The new Carlight range is due to arrive in the next few weeks, and Carlight fans will get a chance view them at the company's headquarters in Sleaford, Lincolnshire towards the end of October.

First details emerging

John Gibbons, Sales Director at Carlight, told CaravanTimes that the new range has not yet been given a name, but there will be five set layouts to choose from, featuring both fixed beds and bunk beds.

He also confirmed that lengths will range from 13 to 23 feet, while the company is opting for an eight foot wide chassis, as can currently be found on continental caravans such as those made by Adria and Hobby.

In order to bring the prices down to a competitive level, these models will not be as customisable as the flagship Commander collection. Nonetheless, they are retaining the venerable Carlight name, so luxury touches are sure to abound.

But that's not all - the company is planning to bring out yet another range in 2013, following its acquisition of Thomson Caravans earlier this year.

With all this in the pipeline, it seems like Carlight are certainly ones to watch as we move into the New Year.
