About the 4WD camper
4WD campervans are the premium adventure rig. Britz Outback, Apollo X-Terrain, Cheapa 4WD Hi-Top — all of them combine outback-track capability with an interior bed, kitchen and pop-up roof for standing room. Heavier on fuel and more expensive, but absolutely no other rig opens up the Kimberley, Cape York, Karijini and the deep outback.
Who it's for
Couples and small groups planning the legendary outback runs — Gibb River, Cape York, Karijini, Kimberley.

City-only trips, anyone wanting motorhome-style comfort with bathroom on board, anyone uncomfortable on dirt roads.
