If you’re planning to build your dream caravan and curious what most people want in theirs, here are the most requested features on Wonderland RV luxury caravans today:

1. Airbag Suspension for the Smoothest Ride

Let’s be honest, the Australian landscape isn’t always forgiving. Bumpy tracks and uneven terrain can wreak havoc on a traditional caravan suspension system.  

But now there’s the magic of airbag suspension, a system that effortlessly absorbs bumps, so even the roughest journey can become smooth. Cruisemaster’s wireless airbag suspension uses innovative technology that allows you to fine-tune the ride height with a simple touch of a button.  

The airbag suspension provides a level caravan at any time, regardless of the terrain, which brings: 

1. Enhanced comfort: Goodbye, jarring jolts – hello, luxurious ride!
2. Improved handling: Airbags produce superior stability, and you can gain greater confidence on challenging roads.
3. Reduced wear and tear: Protect your caravan and its contents by minimising stress on the chassis.
   

2. Outdoor Kitchens to Cook Up a Storm 

The golden glow of sunset paints the sky, as the tempting aroma of sizzling steaks fills the air. That’s the scene you get with a fully equipped outdoor kitchen with your caravan. It’s also the perfect place to whip up culinary delights and share stories under the stars. 

Wonderland RV offers outdoor kitchen options to suit any cooking style. From compact setups to two-burner stove and / or induction cooker plus a sink to wash your dishes outside.  To craft the perfect space to fuel your adventures and complete convenience you have the option to house a fridge, BBQ, and ample storage.

With an outdoor kitchen, you get: 

• Alfresco dining: Enjoy the beauty of your surroundings while preparing and savouring delicious meals.
• Extra space: It frees up valuable internal benchtop space for other activities.
• Entertainment hub: The outdoor kitchen becomes a natural gathering spot for family and friends.

3. Juice Up Your Electrical System 

Upgrading your electrical system allows you to extend your off-grid adventures. Many Wonderlanders also choose from dozens of electrical system upgrades to enhance comfort, convenience, and independence while caravanning. 

Upgrades to your inverter and lithium battery capacity with brands like Redarc, Enerdrive, Victron, or Ecoflow allows for expanded off-grid capabilities and can deliver: 

• Increased power output 
• Faster charging times 
• Improved battery life 
• Consistent performance 
• Efficient charging 
• Versatility of running AC appliances
   

You can also choose under-lounge or behind-fridge installations. This can optimise your van interior space with open space living and quick access to the electrical system set up.   Behind the fridge location is suited for the larger electrical systems installations that require more space and under the lounge for everything else.

4. The Convenience of Instant Hot Water

Imagine stepping into the shower on a chilly morning with an instant flow of hot water. Simply refreshing! No more waiting for kettles to boil or running out mid-rinse. 

Upgrading to an instant hot water system eliminates frustrations and elevates your off-grid experience. A Wonderland caravan can be upgraded with the Truma AquaGo instant LPG hot water service for efficiency or endless continuous LPG hot water service, so you can have: 

• Instant hot water: Enjoy luxurious showers, dishwashing, and other hot water needs with ease. 
• Convenience: No more waiting for the water to heat up
• Improved efficiency: An instant hot water system is perfect for off-grid caravanning so there’s no water waste having to run the water, so it heats up.

   

5. Gas or Diesel Heating to Conquer the Chill

Caravanners who want to enjoy toasty warmth even in the most remote locations upgrade their luxury off-road caravans with a powerful gas or diesel heating system. With a basic diesel heater or a Truma gas heater, you’ll be able to create a cosy haven, regardless of the outside temperature.  

For the ultimate in off-grid independence, the Hydronic Diesel HWS & Heater “Gasless” system is an upgrade that provides both heating and hot water without relying on LPG.  

Here’s why you would want a heater onboard your caravan: 

• Year-round comfort: Enjoy a warm and inviting atmosphere, extending your caravan season into cooler months.
• Improved sleep: Drift off to sleep in a comfortable environment, even on chilly nights.
• Enhanced enjoyment: Make the most of your off-grid experience by conquering the elements.

   

Indulge in the Caravan of Your Dreams 

These are just a taste of the luxury features that can refine your caravanning experience. Some Wonderland reviewers and customers have these to say: 

“We got the exact suspension that we wanted, tyre size, the chassis size, the tow hitch – you name it – if we asked for it, [Wonderland owner] Kevin sorted it out and built everything to match our specs and desires,” shared a customer named Melinda.  

“There’s more than a dollop of extravagance — it’s an indulgent and intelligent setup that maximises space,” Peter Quilty quipped about the interiors of the Amaroo 2100RC-A. 

“They’re just so uniquely and superbly beautifully finished. The colours, the materials, the appliances – everything that’s in there is top quality,” wrote Caravan World editor John Ford about the XTR 1906, noting the “attention to detail [that] you certainly get it in a Wonderland.”
