Jayco Starcraft (2026)
From $55,990
Jayco's compact single-couple tourer, the entry point to the full-height caravan range. The MY26 15.48-7.SC headline variant is 7.16 m overall (15 ft 4 in body) with a queen island bed, café dinette and internal ensuite. 200 Ah lithium and a 260 W solar panel are standard from MY26 — a meaningful upgrade from the older AGM-based spec. Pricing varies by dealer drive-away; the figure shown is indicative.
What we like
- ✓ Compact enough to fit a standard suburban carport
- ✓ Australia's largest dealer network for parts and service
- ✓ 200 Ah lithium plus 260 W solar standard from MY26 (was AGM)
- ✓ Strong second-hand resale values
What we don't
- ✕ Single-couple layout only — no family variant in this size
- ✕ Two-year manufacturing warranty (5-year structural runs separately)
- ✕ On-road suspension only — gravel touring needs a different brand
- ✕ Manufacturer page doesn't publish drive-away pricing — verify with dealer
