COTY REVIEW PRIME EDGE ODYSSEY
MALCOLM STREET CARAVAN WORLD FIELD EDITOR
SUITABILITY FOR INTENDED TOURING
Prime Edge Caravans’ Odyssey is a van with much to offer. Its external body length of 6.3m (20ft 8in) is well suited to the front bedroom and rear bathroom layout. As a couples van, there's plenty of room to move around inside.
The kitchen bench is well-sized, with a Thetford four-burner cooktop/grill/oven, a large square sink, and a microwave oven in the usual overhead locker location. That other kitchen essential, a Dometic 224L compressor fridge, sits between the dinette and the bathroom.
Undoubtedly, the van's feature item is the cafe dinette. Complete with wall cushions and hinged footrests, it oozes comfort for the weary traveller. This is relevant because Prime Edge advertises the Odyssey as a luxury offroad caravan.
From the outside, the offroad aspect is quite obvious. For starters, the van has a slightly beefy look about it. A look under the van reveals the Cruisemaster ATX coil spring suspension and the disc brake-fitted wheels.
Offroad travellers seem to like a generous amount of external storage space, and the Odyssey has that. In addition to the well-sized tunnel storage and rear offside bin, the storage boxes on the drawbar offer plenty of space and have slide-outs
