Compact family caravan costs as much as a new Fabia. A regular SUV can tow it

Keystone RV has introduced the Coleman 13S travel trailer for the 2027 model year. The 4.8-meter-long, single-axle trailer has a curb weight of about 1,260 kg and can be towed by a standard SUV without a special license. Prices in the US range from $13,000 to $20,000 depending on trim, comparable to a new Skoda Fabia. Inside, it sleeps four: a fold-out sofa, a drop-down single bunk, a corner double bed, a compact kitchen with an induction hob, microwave and fridge, and a bathroom with shower and toilet. Experts note the bathroom is cramped for a tall adult. Standard equipment includes an electric fireplace, air conditioning, a tankless water heater, two electric awnings with LED lights, and solar panel prep. Fresh water tank capacity is 106 liters; gray and black water tanks hold 129 and 68 liters respectively. The trailer is not sold in Europe.
