Coachman has revamped its Acadia range for the 2025 season, and added two new models to the line-up.
It has also streamlined its Laser models into one range, and added a third model to its upmarket Lusso range.
The changes in the Acadia have mainly involved updating the interior to give what the company claims is a more contemporary look, while reengineering the furniture to reduce weight.
This means last year’s heavily curved overhead locker doors have been replaced by larger flat handleless doors. There are also more black accents, with black finish bathroom fittings, and drawer handles. And there is a striking Tuscan Geo design to the kitchen splashback and the washroom wall.
Those on the hunt for the best small caravan may be interested in one of the new Acadia models, the Acadia 460 (£29,745). With a sizable end washroom, it brings a layout that has already been available in the VIP range for a few seasons into the more keenly priced Acadia range as well.
The other new model, the Acadia 675 Xtra (£36,155), is an 8ft-wide twin-axle version of the popular 575 layout with a transverse island bed and an end washroom. The extra width allows it to have an L-shaped lounge at the front.
The Lasers, meanwhile, have been streamlined so that there will no longer be a separate Laser and Laser Xcel range. All six models in the new range are Laser Xtras. All are 8ft wide, while only the models 545 and 575 models have single axles – the rest are twin-axle caravans.
As a result, what were previously the Laser 855 and 875 Xcel are now the Laser 855 and 875 Xtra, while what was the Laser 665 Xtra is now the Laser Xtra 865. The Coachman Laser 845 Xtra (£43,060) has also had its layout changed so that where you previously had a window opposite the L-shaped front settee there is now a blank wall that includes a TV fitted as standard.
The Laser and VIP ranges both now have a new one-piece door with a high security locking system fitted as standard.
The new model in the Lusso range, meanwhile, is the Lusso III (£51,545). It features fixed single beds in the rear where the other two in the range have a transverse island bed. Like the Lusso I and Lusso II, it has an end washroom and an L-shaped lounge.
New features on the Lusso range as a whole this season include a 120W solar panel, a new one-piece door, and a co-ordinating foot stool in the front lounge.
Coachman has unveiled its 2025 plans just as Bailey has launched its new Unicorn Deluxe range, with mix of layout and single- and twin-axle models.
Adria has also shared its new season news, with minor upgrades for the interior and a new look for the exterior.
