Sprite Cruzer SR - wealth for the thrifty

Sprite is a trailer brand belonging to the Swift group. However, while Swift and Sterling trailers are a strong middle class, Sprite models are intended for less affluent customers. But Sprite Cruzer SR is completely out of place in the group of low-budget caravans ...

Sprite offers two basic models. Alpine Sport is the cheapest model offered by the Swift Group, which does not mean that it can be purchased for the buck. Its prices in Germany start from around 17,000. euro.

For a better equipped Sprite Cruzer trailer you need to spend at least 20.5 thousand. euro. However, we are talking about the 460 version, the length of which - without the drawbar - is 440 cm. Apart from it, four other variants are available, and the top version of the 495 SR (560 cm long) costs 22.5 thousand as standard. euro .

Everything for the price

For this price, we get a spacious and very well-equipped trailer. Thanks to this, we do not have to worry about picking up a "naked" vehicle from the dealer, and we will have to pay for each addition.

Particularly noteworthy is the kitchen equipment , the more that as standard, the customer will get a gas stove with three gas burners and one electric burner, an oven, a microwave oven and a 113-liter fridge with a freezer compartment. The fact that the kitchen is important to the manufacturer is also evidenced by a large amount of space for plates and bottles.

The trailer has a 10-liter hot water boiler that can be operated with both electricity and gas. The Truma S3002 system is responsible for heating, which distributes the heat to five points in the vehicle.

The bathroom is really big in the 495 SR. It is placed at the rear of the vehicle, where it covers the entire width. Nobody should complain about the lack of space between the toilet and the sink. A place for a closed shower cubicle is provided in the corner of the room.

The only problem may be a small, 38-liter water tank . At the campsite, however, you can use a pump and connect your trailer to an external source.

Home and modern

The interior of Sprite Cruzer is modern and cozy at the same time. The impression of modernity is influenced by the applied wood decors with silver handles. However, cosiness was achieved thanks to the upholstery used. I think that in the opinion of many customers, the sofas will be considered very "home".

The trailer has room for a rather spacious wardrobe. There are also many small compartments for glasses and cell phones. The light in the vehicle is ensured by LED lamps, but during the day a lot of light will fall into the interior, among others. thanks to the characteristic for Swift Group trailers, the triple front window . Its central part is tilting.

There are two double beds available to users. The front one, which we get after folding the table, has the dimensions of 208 x 160 cm. Rear - fixed place to sleep - measures 195 x 135 cm.

It's worth paying extra

The maximum permissible weight of the top version of Cruzer is 1500 kg. However, with the unladen weight (including standard equipment) of 1300 kg, we get a load capacity of 200 kg . It is worth increasing it by opting for an optional 100 kg increase in total weight.

Such pleasure costs 205 euros, but taking into account that the standard equipment of the trailer is really rich, this one option will not significantly increase the purchase cost.

And this is what the "low-cost" Sprite Cruzer is all about. Its starting price may not be the lowest on the market, but few competitors can offer so much at a similar price.
