The Carado CV 602 belongs to the range of 6-meter panel vans with at least one 2-meter longitudinal bed. This van category is currently one of the most popular because it combines compactness and single beds.
Carado solves the conflict of accommodating all elements in a fully-fledged motorhome by not shortening the kitchen block, but pulling it as far as possible into the sliding door. This creates space for a 2-meter bed on the passenger side. The van is based on the Fiat Ducato and is delivered in the basic version with 140 hp and a 6-speed manual gearbox.
At the Caravan Salon 2024, the manufacturer presented the Carado CV 602 Pro, which is equipped with various appearance packages and optional extras. The compact design, the well thought-out room layout and the innovative lengthways single beds, which offer a high level of sleeping comfort despite the compact dimensions of six meters in length, remain unchanged.
The Carado CV 602 is primarily aimed at couples and small families who value mobility and flexibility without wanting to forego the comfort of a fully equipped motorhome.
