September 2021. Dougal and I visit the Erwin Hymer Center in Bad Waldsee, Germany, to take a look at a Caravanning Icon - The Eriba Touring Familial 320. This cute, cool, compact caravan has a pop-up roof to help improve your fuel efficiency, or EV range as applicable. It's the one of the best caravans for an EV, and certainly a great lightweight and aerodynamic caravan.
To jump straight to a certain section, please check the following time codes / chapters in this video:
00:00 - Titles and introduction
01:00 - The Eriba icon, construction with its steel frame, weight, price, aerodynamics.
02:20 - Exterior of the Eriba Touring 320
03:45 - Wide angle sweep tour of the Eriba Touring 320 pop-top caravan
04:49 - Interior Tour of the Eriba Touring 320 including washroom
10:00 - Bed sizes and how to make up the bed
13:07 - Do you bang your head in an Eriba Touring pop-top caravan?
14:00 - Wardrobe and heating
14:47 - Washroom including adjustable mirror
17:38 - Conclusion and outro
For more information about this cracking little caravan, check out the Eriba website at: eriba.com/de/en, then click on the menu top right and select your country/region.
For the UK, you can head straight to eriba.com/gb/en
Please note that in its standard spec, this caravan does NOT come with hot water, a leisure battery and charger, or blown air and mains electric element to the heating. These are ALL extra and will need to come out of your payload. Do consider this when comparing an Eriba Touring with a UK brand of caravan from both a price and weight perspective.
