Caravan dealers and industry experts have had their first look at three new Coachman vehicles that will be available to purchase for the 2025 season.

Interested parties gathered at the manufacturer’s annual showcase at Beverley Barn in East Yorkshire to see the Acadia 460, Acadia 675 Xtra and Lusso III unveiled.

Acadia 460

A new compact caravan, the Acadia 460 features a two-berth set-up, making it perfect for couples or solo travellers.

The parallel seating has been upholstered in herringbone fabric, while the kitchen features an extending worktop and improved storage space.

Style continues to take centre stage in the bathroom, with its Belfast sink, terrazzo style splashback and a mixer tap.

Acadia 675 Xtra

The Acadia 675 Xtra is a larger twin axle model with sleeping accommodation for up to four people and an L-shaped front lounge.

It includes a transverse island bed and a spacious end washroom, while off the lounge in the centre of the layout is a well-equipped kitchen with big fridge-freezer and additional storage.

The 460 and 675 Xtra are at the forefront of a refreshed Acadia range, which is known for its comfort, convenience and style.

Ben Parkin of Coachman said: “This is the range that’s had the most concentration for us, in terms of development. Internally it’s completely new, every piece of furniture has been redesigned, trying to save some weight but also moving it on from a styling perspective.

“We’ve modernised it in certain areas but still retained some of the Coachman characteristics and feel that customers are used to and love.”

Lusso III

The third model in Coachman’s luxury tourer range, Lusso, features wide twin beds and a vast washroom, complete with a shower and one-piece door at the rear.

A generous L-shaped lounge at the front has been upgraded in the Lusso III to include higher and more supportive backrests and is finished off with a coordinating footstool.

Integrating the two areas is a well-equipped kitchen with enhanced workspace and deeper cupboards for longer trips.

Coachman has been making caravans in Hull since 1986, with its first range – Coachman 440 – establishing the brand’s reputation for quality tourers.

The industry launch event earlier this month provided the manufacturer with an opportunity to let experts see the new vehicles in the flesh.

Mr Parkin added: “Trade shows are always a great chance for us to get a steer. Positive. Negative. What’s right. What’s wrong.

“Some of the feedback is personal preference, personal taste – but it helps validate what we’ve done is correct – and we’re confident we’ve headed in the right direction for the 2025 season.”
