About the Ray Pop Top
The Ray is Avan's slideout pop top, using a patented fully insulated solid wall extension that slides out to form the bedroom. The entry 402 Ray layout is 3,890mm of body on a 5,000mm overall length at a 2,265mm travel height. It carries a 1,400kg tare against a 1,700kg ATM with a 125kg ball weight. Four layouts are published.
- 300kg of payload - room for water, gear, and the extras without going over ATM
- 1.7T ATM - suited to a mid-size SUV or ute
- Pop-top design - lower travel height and lighter towing for easy touring and garage storage
- Couples layout - the bed and living space of a bigger van without the length
- 20ft overall - compact and nimble on tight tracks
- Australian-made and built for local conditions

Delivery and freight
If there's no dealer in your state, most brands deliver Australia-wide. You can also collect from the factory. Interstate freight is a real cost, often a few thousand dollars, and it climbs with distance, so factor it in before you commit.
