Exterior
The Trooper remains the benchmark of off-road caravan design. It’s built on a full aluminium frame using Lotus Caravans proprietary AL+ technology, with fibreglass walls, Hume doors, and the strength of a gooseneck A-frame. On top, the LC Customs Styling Pack, Drag Wing and Stealth Solar Panel Bracket add to an already head-turning facade, while German marine-grade composite panelling adds the brawn, endurance and sleek aesthetic this best-in-class model is known for.
Interior
Inside, the Trooper blends hardwearing design with refined style. Premium finishes meet functional craftsmanship, from the rainfall bench and Newline’s leather lounges to the designer range cabinetry and new signature flooring.
A full convection oven, with flexi-induction cooking system, and 224L fridge make mealtime easy, while smart lighting, integrated iPad dock, and Fusion entertainment system bring modern comfort wherever you roam.
Lotus Caravans, in partnership with industry leader S&M Chassis, has designed a revolutionary truss chassis with drop-goose neck, reducing weight and hitching height for added durability for this off-road beast.
The Cruisemaster XT Air Suspension with the complete Body Control System (BCS) handles everything off-roading throws at you, while the custom 17” Dirty Life x Lotus Caravans wheels deliver optimum performance in the most difficult terrain. Premium Cooper Rugged Trek all-terrain tyres complete this robust van for the most reliable luxury ride on the road.
The Trooper is available in twenty different ergonomically designed floor plans, ranging from 18’9 to 24’6, with layouts for singles, couples and families. Choose North-South or East-West primary bedroom layouts, and double, triple or quad bunks for family voyages. Fully bespoke, each van is handcrafted from the ground up, giving you control over every detail from finish to configuration.
Powered by 400Ah of REDARC lithium batteries, a 3000W inverter, and 850W of solar, the Trooper’s system is made for real off-grid living. The RedVision display and new BMS interface keep every function within reach, so you can escape in complete comfort anywhere in Australia.
With faster charge rates, an unbeatable battery capacity and an inverter that’s big enough to run air conditioning and appliances off-grid, the Trooper also boasts industry-leading safety features, making it the most reliable thoroughbred anywhere, anytime.
Available in 20 different layouts, from 18’9″ to 24’6″. Designed for couples, families, and solo adventurers who value comfort and capability in equal measure.
Progress that sets a new standard, the Trooper is brimming with the world’s most innovative materials, finishes and technology for a new era in premium caravanning.

Here’s how the Lotus Caravans Trooper stacks up against other Australian-built off-road vans:
| Other off-road vans | Lotus Caravan’s Trooper |
| 600–800W of solar | 850W of solar |
| 200–400Ah lithium | 400Ah of REDARC lithium batteries |
| Around 240–250L of fresh water | Option to add LCC Stealth Rear Bar |
The Trooper stands out because its off-grid package can be optioned significantly higher across all three categories, allowing travellers to push well beyond the typical limits of comparable models when camping remotely.
Yes. While many off-road caravans sit between 190–245L of fresh water, the Trooper’s water storage options start at 240L and give you the option to scale higher. It’s ideal for extended stays, particularly for families or travellers venturing into arid regions.
Beyond water, the LC Stealth Bar delivers serious versatility. Designed in-house and manufactured with Boss Aluminium, it’s a refined solution for carrying extra tanks, wood boxes, and a spare tyre – everything you need to stay self-sufficient off-grid.
While many premium off-road vans use aluminium frames or riveted systems, the Trooper remains the benchmark for off-road design with its proprietary AL+ full-aluminium frame, engineered to reduce flex under load and maximise long-term structural integrity. Coupled with German marine-grade composite panels or checkerplate body armour, it offers greater torsional resistance than typical riveted frames or basic alloy wall systems.
