Ahead of one of the year’s most anticipated caravan launches, the details continue to trickle through, with Bailey now revealing the weights and layouts of the 2013 Unicorn range.
The Bailey Unicorn Series II collection will come in five layouts, it has been confirmed, all of which have been named after Spanish cities.
As you would expect from such a high-end range of caravans, all of these models come with a full-width washroom with a separate shower cubicle.
The range starts with the two-berth Unicorn Seville, which offers a popular couple’s configuration with a convertible double in the front-end, an offside kitchenette and a full-width rear bathroom.
What’s more, the Seville is the lightest caravan in this range, tipping the scales at just 1,350kgs MTPLM, which is almost 90kg lighter than the previous version.
Four by four-berth
Moving up the range and there are four choices when it comes to four-berth layouts. The lightest option here is the Unicorn II Madrid, which features a convertible double dinette on the offside and weighs in at 1,484kgs.
Also carried over from the old Bailey Unicorn range is the Cadiz layout, which features two fixed single beds towards the rear end and has an MTPLM weight of 1,498kgs.
Completing the collection is a pair of fixed double-bed models, the single-axle Valencia and the Barcelona, which is the only twin-axle in the range. These two models weigh in at 1,497kgs and 1,686kgs respectively.
As of yet, there is no sign of the Unicorn Cabrera and Unicorn Pamplona island bed layouts from the previous range, but Bailey has hinted at further layout additions before the end of the year.
All of these MTPLM weights represent significant savings over the Series I Unicorn collection. For more details about how this has been achieved, click here.
Bailey Caravans has already confirmed that the Unicorn II collection will feature Michelin branded tyres and significantly lower noseweights, and more details will be revealed on Monday 6 August.
