Carado motorhomes: models, prices and current UK stock

Carado is a German manufacturer specialising in high-quality motorhomes and campervans that offer a balance between functional design and value. Established as a key brand within the Erwin Hymer Group, Carado builds its vehicles at the dedicated Capron production facility in Saxony, ensuring high standards of German engineering. Their range focuses on practicality and durability, catering to a diverse audience from solo travellers to families.

The current catalogue includes agile campervans, low-profile motorhomes, and integrated models, all designed with clean lines and intelligent space utilisation. By prioritising essential comforts and robust construction, Carado delivers reliable leisure vehicles suited for both short weekend breaks and extended touring across the UK and Europe. Each model features user-friendly layouts, well-equipped kitchens, and efficient washroom solutions, making the brand a popular choice for those seeking a dependable entry into the motorhoming lifestyle without compromising on build quality.

Founded in 2005, Carado was created by the Erwin Hymer Group to address a growing demand for reliable, entry-level leisure vehicles that did not sacrifice quality for affordability. To ensure the highest production standards, the Group established a purpose-built manufacturing plant, Capron, in Neustadt, Germany. This facility was designed specifically to streamline the assembly of Carado and its sister brand, Sunlight, combining efficient industrial processes with skilled German craftsmanship.

Since its inception, Carado has grown from a niche offering into one of Europe’s most recognisable motorhome brands. A significant milestone occurred in 2017 when the brand expanded its portfolio beyond coachbuilt motorhomes to include its first range of dedicated campervans (Vans), catering to the trend for more compact, versatile travel.

Today, Carado benefits from being part of the world’s largest leisure vehicle organisation, following the Erwin Hymer Group's acquisition by Thor Industries. While it has scaled significantly, the brand maintains its original mission of providing honest, functional, and durable vehicles. Carado is now a staple of the UK market, supported by an extensive dealer network and a reputation for solid residuals and straightforward engineering.
