Karoo unveils aerodynamic caravan for electric vehicles

Finnish company Karoo presented at Caravan Salon 2026 a prototype caravan with an aerodynamic design that reduces air resistance by about 50% compared to conventional caravans. When towed by an electric car, consumption is around 30 kWh per 100 km; during a test drive from Helsinki through Lapland to Norway, charging stops were made every 250 km. The caravan is 5.30 m long and 2.09 m wide, with sleeping places for four. Unladen weight is 1050 kg, fully equipped 1300 kg; the team aims to save another 100 kg. The base price is approximately 37,000 euros, with typical options bringing it to around 45,000 euros. Production starts early next year, with first deliveries before the summer season 2027.
