Our exclusive Swift Explorer caravan range, available only through Merit RV, has been a trusted favourite for over a decade.

These caravans are built on a heavy-duty, high-rise chassis, with substantial solar capacity and large, monitored water tanks, giving greater freedom to stay off-grid for longer and explore more.

The interior is designed around space, light and effortless comfort. From the moment you step inside, you’ll discover light-filled living spaces that make life on the road feel just that little bit more luxurious. The spacious front lounge provides the perfect place to sit back and unwind.

With the Explorer 645 and 580 layout the master bedroom features an East/West orientated Island Bed, creating the perfect space to relax, take in the scenery and watch the world go by. The thoughtfully appointed rear ensuite is positioned away from the kitchen and living areas, providing added privacy and separation. Plus, enjoy the luxury of a generously sized shower.

In the Explorer 650, retreat to the privacy of the rear master bedroom, complete with a north–south oriented island bed. The mid bathroom features separate zones, offering added flexibility and convenience — especially when hosting guests.

Visit us at Merit RV to explore the range in person. Based outside Taranaki? No problem — get in touch and we can arrange a personalised video walkthrough.

We’ll also have our Explorer range and other quality Swift RVs on display at the NZMCA Motorhome, Caravan & Leisure Show in Hamilton next month. We will be on site OS48 situated by the outdoor "Seat and Eat" Zone. So come and take a look and have a chat with our friendly team — we’d love to see you there!
