Hello and welcome to the Caravan Loans Australia Weekly News Wrap, Im Paige Estritori, and its Sunday, 15 February 2026. First, a quick finance pulse for caravan buyers: major comparison tables for caravan and personal loans were refreshed this week, with updates published on 13 February and 11 February. Why it matters: products, fees and features shift often, and that can change your likely repayments. If youre weighing up secured versus unsecured options or fixed versus variable, run the numbers before you apply. A free eligibility check and a quick calculator pass can help you set a realistic budget and avoid unnecessary hits to your credit file. Next up, Melbournes big caravan supershow is almost here, running 18 to 22 February at the Showgrounds, with about two hundred-plus exhibitors and dozens of new releases slated. Expect fresh hybrids and off‑road rigs, compact pod vans, and new accessories. For shoppers, show specials can be time‑limited and delivery timeframes vary, so bring your ID, know your ceiling, and ask for the total drive‑away price including options and fees. Getting pre‑approval sorted now means you can move confidently if you find the right van. Meanwhile, a new Ute of the Year was crowned this week and the testing underlined something important for touring: not every award‑winning ute is ideal for towing a heavy caravan. If your set‑up pushes toward three and a half tonnes, double‑check tow ratings, payload and gross combination mass, and make sure your chosen tow vehicle and van are a safe match. Build those specs into your finance plan so repayments and running costs still fit your monthly budget. Thats your wrap. To compare caravan loans, check your eligibility in minutes and get your pre‑approval organised online, head to caravan-loans.com.au. Safe travels and Ill see you next week.
