Why the Sprite Grande Major 4 SB caravan?

First and foremost, the Sprite Grande Major 4 SB is one of a growing number of caravans that are 2.46m wide (8ft – the maximum legal width for a tourer). So it’s more spacious than caravans of standard width (for comparison, the non-Grande Sprite Major 4 SB is 2.25m wide).

The Sprite Grande Major 4 SB is an immensely popular layout, with the shower room across the rear and the transversely aligned bed forward of it. And, even though the bed base has a retracting mechanism that enables you to shorten its length during the day, the width of the caravan means that there is still enough corridor space at the foot of the bed without having to push the bed back into its day-mode position.

A look inside

The 2.46m width brings benefits in the lounge, too, in the form of a wider central-front chest of drawers, more floorspace – and a wider window area, letting in more light.

Sprite is one of the longest running names in tourers, and is arguably the brand that exemplifies affordable caravanning. The Grande Major 4 SB is a true leader in its parallel lounge, rear shower room, maximum-width field: light in weight, with a layout that has wide appeal, a width that makes it attractively spacious – it’s a great example of an excellent tourer at a comparatively modest price.
