Piglet


A COMPACT 6 METRE AUTOMATIC CAMPER FOR UP TO 3 PEOPLE


Piglet is a brand new 2027 Carado CV602 Pro+. Carado is a German brand, part of the respected Hymer group. It's designed for singles or couples looking for an easy-to-drive but comprehensively equipped modern campervan. It has 4 seatbelts and sleeps up to 3 people. There's also a solar panel to keep your battery topped up, a reversing camera and cab air conditioning. Outside there is a wind-out awning for shade. Please note this van does not have a TV.


There's a feeling of light and connection to the outside world thanks to wide windows, including in the back doors. At the back there's a fixed transverse double bed (transverse means you sleep across the van), giving generous open storage space below the bed. Above the bed on both sides are storage lockers. There is a single bed at the front which can be made up from the dinette.


There's a compact bathroom with a toilet and basin, and an opening window. The internal wall hinges across to reveal a fairly spacious shower (this isn't show in the video or photos above as it's a new feature for 2027, this new model hasn't yet been made public). Up front there's a separate seating area with extendable dining table and front swivelling seats, and a kitchenette equipped with a fridge, oven and hob.


All windows have both flyscreens and blackout blinds. In the cab you'll find fitted pleated blinds for privacy at night or heat reduction in the daytime.


PLEASE NOTE MOUSE AND PIGLET ARE NOT INSURED TO LEAVE THE UK. HOWEVER ALL OUR OTHER VANS ARE.


More detailed specification is below, and you can compare our vehicles on our Resources page.
