NEW Carthago Developments for 2025
Introduction
At Southdowns Motorhomes, we are thrilled to present the latest updates and additions to the Carthago motorhome lineup for 2025. Carthago has always been synonymous with luxury, innovation, and quality. This year, the brand has taken a significant step forward with the introduction of new models and a fresh look for some of its most popular series. Let’s explore these exciting developments that are set to redefine the motorhome experience.
The Split of the C-Tourer Range



One of the most notable changes for 2025 is the split of the C-Tourer range into two distinct lines: the C1-Tourer and the C2-Tourer. This decision aims to cater to different customer needs by offering variations in weight and design, without compromising on the quality and comfort Carthago is known for.
- C1-Tourer: Available in both A-class and low-profile models, the C1-Tourer is designed for those who prefer a lightweight vehicle. It comes with options for a 3.5-tonne chassis, making it suitable for drivers with a standard UK driving license. This range is available on both Fiat Ducato and Mercedes Sprinter chassis, offering flexibility in terms of base vehicle choice.
- C2-Tourer: This is a new addition aimed at providing more comfort and luxury, while still maintaining a manageable size. The C2-Tourer “SMART LINER” is built exclusively on a Mercedes Sprinter chassis with an Al-Ko low-frame chassis, ensuring a smoother ride. The narrower body width of 2.17 meters allows for greater manoeuvrability, making it ideal for travelling on narrower UK roads. Also available in 3.5 t option for B-Licence.
