Grown-up pop up
Pop-up caravans, especially new ones, are as scarce as hen’s teeth on our roads, mainly because virtually none of the mainstream caravan builders have a version of their own.
Eko Veld Gear, known for its Armadillo off-road caravans, has introduced the prototype of its Lite model. It’s a pop-up caravan, but because the base is pretty much a copy of its existing caravans, you can also tow this pop-up caravan into the bush.
The top half of the caravan consists of canvas panels with a solid roof on top. The mechanism Eko Field Gear uses on the Lite for the setting up and taking down is Z-shaped which you flatten from above when closing.
Not only is the Lite much lower than its bush-caravan brothers – which of course means you’re going to get it into your garage
