Carado’s CV campervan collection is all about bringing together functionality and comfort at an attractive price – and the new CV602 Pro layout is no different.

It is based on the Fiat Ducato and enjoys higher-quality standard equipment and improved driver assistance systems for the coming season.

The new front design also gives it a fresh look and the exclusive Pro graphics add a stylish touch. Other features include folding cab blinds and a 3.75m awning.

Inside, the seating area and washroom are similar to the smaller CV540 model, but instead of a transverse double, the twin beds at the rear of the vehicle run lengthways (measuring 190cm and 187cm long).

There are good-sized overhead storage lockers on both sides of the bedroom with movable reading lights under the cupboards.

A rooflight allows you to flood the comfortable sleeping area with natural light in the morning – and if you really want to enjoy the fresh morning air and views, you can simply open up those twin rear doors.

For additional sleeping capacity, an optional pop-up roof with a double bed is available and you can add a further single bed in the central living area.

Forward of the sleeping area is the washroom with shower, toilet and sink, and, opposite, is a spacious galley kitchen with a two-burner gas hob, a sink and work surfaces.

These sit above drawers, cupboards and an 84-litre compressor fridge, with freezer compartment. Further storage is available in the overhead cupboard above the kitchen.

At the front, the half-dinette (with two Isofix child seat fittings), faces an extendable dining table and the twin swivel cab seats, and there’s more overhead locker space.

The CV602 Pro has a spacious rear garage under the beds, where you can store large luggage and smaller everyday items.

The Ducato-based CV600 is a comfortable campervan that makes surprisingly good use of its space – and with Carado’s Pro+ package, comfort levels are enhanced.

One of the key features is the washroom design, which includes a swivelling wall, allowing the washroom to be quickly converted into a shower.

A new panoramic window at the front allows more sunlight into the living area, and in the evening the indirect lighting creates a cosy atmosphere.

The transverse double bed (1.95m by 1.57m) sits above a useful garage.

Overhead cupboards offer plenty of storage space, too. The side kitchen is designed with convenience in mind, with a double-burner gas stove, sink and a generous work surface.

The spacious 84-litre refrigerator can be accessed from the outside.

Storage in the kitchen is good, too, with an overhead locker and a drawer and cupboards below the hob, and there’s further storage above the half-dinette.

There’s a definite feeling of space in the CV640 from Carado, and with the Pro+ package, the Fiat-based camper is now more comfortable than ever.

The social hub of the campervan is the cosy half-dinette lounge, with swivelling driver and passenger seats and an expandable table.

The galley kitchen boasts a two-burner gas hob and an 84-litre fridge with freezer compartment.

Cupboards and drawers give you plenty of storage options for kitchen equipment and food supplies and there are numerous USB and 230V sockets to keep you connected.

Opposite the kitchen, the swivel washroom in the Pro+ model features a toilet, fixed basin and shower.

In the rear are two lengthways single beds measuring 192cm by 108cm and 184cm by 86cm.

An optional pop-up roof with double bed increases the sleeping capacity and setting up a single in the lounge area is another option.

Below the rear beds is a spacious garage for luggage or other large items, as well as a cabinet for two 11kg gas bottles.
