THE MILLION DOLLAR CARAVAN
A luxury caravan with a price tag of ONE MILLION DOLLARS is due to hit the road later this year. The American built CR-1 Carbon is a blacked-out behemoth that well and truly dwarfs the humble white camper van. Created in Speedway, Indiana, within earshot of the Indianapolis Motor Speedway and the roaring engines of the annual Indy 500 race, the caravan boasts a design inspired by motorsport and aerospace technology. Built from carbon fibre, the same lightweight yet durable material used for Ferraris, Formula 1 cars and the Boeing 787, the caravan is 35ft long, 10ft 8” tall, 8ft wide and weighs in at 6,500 pounds.
