About the Swift Elegance Grande 850
The Swift Elegance Grande 850 represents the pinnacle of British caravan engineering, offering an expansive 8-foot wide bodyshell that redefines interior spaciousness.

Whether you are navigating the Scottish Highlands in winter or basking in the coastal sun, the Alde central heating and Grade 3 insulation ensure a domestic level of comfort throughout the year. The integration of the Swift Command system allows owners to monitor power, lighting, and heating remotely, adding a layer of modern convenience to your travels.

Practical ownership tips
Towing suitability
At 1,900kg MTPLM, your tow car needs a kerbweight of at least 2,235kg to meet the 85% guideline. Check towing capacity by reg or use the towing calculator to compare a specific car and caravan.
Available payload
The Swift Elegance Grande 850 has approximately 159kg of user payload. This must cover all personal belongings, water, gas, awning, and accessories. Overloading affects handling and is illegal.
Before you buy
Request a habitation check or damp survey for any used caravan. Check the service history, tyre age, chassis condition, and whether the CRIS registration matches the seller. Specifications vary by year and trim level.
Is the Swift Elegance Grande 850 the right luxury caravan for you?
The Swift Elegance Grande 850 is a flagship 4-berth twin-axle caravan designed for long-term touring and year-round comfort. Measuring 7.98m in length and 2.45m in width, it features a dedicated mid-washroom and a rear island bed. Built using timberless SMART 3 construction, it includes high-specification systems such as Alde central heating and the Swift Command remote monitoring interface. With a 1900kg MTPLM, it requires a powerful tow vehicle but offers a spacious, boutique-style interior.
- 8ft wide bodyshell providing increased internal living area.
- Twin-axle chassis with a 1900kg MTPLM and 159kg payload.
- Rear luxury island bed featuring a Duvalay Duvalite Apollo Luxe mattress.
- Alde 24-hour programmable central heating and hot water system.
- Swift Command system with 7-inch LCD touchscreen and remote app control.
- SMART 3 timberless GRP body construction for enhanced durability.
Worth knowing: The 2.45m width requires careful navigation on narrow rural roads. A heavy 4x4 or high-capacity tow vehicle is essential for the 1900kg MTPLM. Premium pricing reflects its position as a flagship luxury model.
Buying a Swift Elegance Grande 850
Who it suits
- • Long-term tourers who require the extra space provided by an 8ft wide body.
- • Couples or small families seeking a permanent rear bed and separate washroom.
- • Winter caravanners who benefit from Grade 3 insulation and Alde heating.
Reasons to consider it
- • The 2.45m width significantly increases floor space in the lounge and bedroom.
- • Twin-axle stability provides better tracking and a higher payload for equipment.
- • Flagship status typically ensures strong resale value and high-end fixtures.
What to check
- • Verify the operation of the Swift Command touchscreen and app connectivity.
- • Inspect the Alde Flow system for continuous hot water performance.
- • Check the condition of the GRP outer skin and timberless frame seals.
- • Confirm the presence of the Duvalay mattress in the rear bedroom.
Worth knowing: Ensure your driving licence permits towing a vehicle of this weight (MTPLM 1900kg). Check the specific year of manufacture as features like the 30-litre internal tank may vary by production date.
Compare the Swift Elegance Grande 850 with similar models
| Model | Berths | MTPLM | Length | Typical price |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Swift Elegance Grande 850 | 4 | 1900 kg | 7.98 m | £32,000 to £46,500 |
| Swift Elegance Grande 835 | 4 | 1900 kg | 7.98 m | £32,000 to £48,500 |
| Swift Elegance | 4 | 1900 kg | 7.98 m | £22,000 to £46,000 |
The Swift Elegance Grande 850 sits at the top of the Swift range, sharing its 7.98m length and 1900kg MTPLM with the 835 model but offering a distinct mid-washroom and rear island bed layout. When compared to the Coachman Laser Xcel or Buccaneer Barracuda, it maintains a competitive 159kg payload and utilizes the proprietary SMART 3 timberless construction. While the 8ft width offers superior internal volume, it presents different towing considerations than standard 7ft 6in models like the base Swift Elegance.
Worth knowing: Specifications and prices can vary by model year, trim and optional equipment.
Ownership and Maintenance Tips
- Utilise the Swift Command app to pre-heat the caravan via the Alde system before arrival.
- Check tyre pressures regularly to maintain the stability benefits of the twin-axle configuration.
- Ensure the 159kg payload is distributed evenly across the axles to optimise towing performance.
Common mistakes to avoid
- • Underestimating the turning circle required for an 8ft wide twin-axle caravan.
- • Failing to monitor the 30-litre internal fresh water tank levels during off-grid use.
Worth knowing: The 7.98m length and 2.45m width may exceed the capacity of some standard storage pitches.
Alternatives to the Swift Elegance Grande 850
