Toy haulers might be the greatest caravan concept ever invented. Imagine a van capable of catering for your next family holiday, with the room to bring along things like motorbikes and pushbikes. If that’s your dream, Austar has you covered.

A Melbourne-based family business with more than 20 years’ experience in automotive engineering, Austar is Australia’s only “toy-hauler” caravan specialist.

Launched in 2005, they offer versatile unique models that can be used in remote places for camping, work purposes, off road activities, along with many other outdoor recreational hobbies.

Built to Australian Design Rules and industry standards, Austar’s range features five different haulers, four 15ft vans and one 19ft van, with the smaller options all branded Playzone.

Each is broken down by a series of letters, with the R opening the offerings, ahead of the X, T and RXT. The larger van is known as the 3 Style. Each van features a lift up or drop-down rear door to allow you to store your toys inside.

Austar Toy Hauler with doors open

Kicking off at a very affordable $43,500, the entry model features a 140-litre fridge and multiple storage options. Designed for couples or friends who like to get away with their off-road toys, it tips the scales at 1550kg.

Built from a robust aluminium frame, galvanized chassis, and with a load of safety equipment, the interior features multiple power outlets and USB ports, a deep cycle battery, CD player and radio, roof mounted speakers, and a 24-inch TV.

Outside, there’s a shower, double glazed windows with screens, and an outdoor kitchen, complete with two burners and a sink. An absolute swag of optional accessories can also be had.

From there, the range moves to the identically sized X variant, at $45,500, which adds an internal shower and toilet to the aforementioned long list of features, as well as a 12V LCD water level indicator and voltmeter.

Austar bunk beds

The Playzone T 15ft Toy Hauler is the next model in Austar’s range and is priced at $47,500. A more family-oriented van, it adds multiple bedding choices, including the option to use bunks for your kids. The tailgate features a lift system too.

Sitting above the T offering is the RXT, which adds a full kitchen, bunk beds, off-road focused independent suspension, bigger wheels (16-inch instead of 15-inch), a microwave, rangehood, a sink with a mixer tap and LED down lights.

Jumping up from there is the 19ft 3 Style, a $63,900 van that’s the real deal, with an ultra-modern, spacious design. This toy hauler offers the best of everything, allowing you to enjoy your dream adventure.

A proper home away from home, it comes loaded with electric brakes, leaf spring heavy duty suspension, a full kitchen with a larger 175-litre fridge, 4-burner cooktop, a mini-grill, and all the other kitchen features found in the RXT.

Two, fold down single beds, and an additional water tank feature. Importantly, Austar Toy Haulers covers the original purchaser with a 2-year structural warranty and provide a full range of maintenance and repair services.
