About the SC16 Club Off Road
The SC16 Club Off Road is Southern Cross's longest hybrid pop-top, stretching to 6.83m for a couple. It suits buyers who want the most internal space in the hybrid line without a fixed-roof off-roader.
Tare sits at 2,400kg against a 2,990kg ATM, a 590kg payload margin. Ball weight comes in at about 190kg.
A pop-top roof lifts electrically to sleep two adults. A four-burner cooktop, a sink and a drying rack sit in the slide-out stainless steel kitchen. A Dometic NRX115 fridge and freezer runs alongside it. Inside, a combo unit pairs shower and Thetford cassette toilet; outside, a hot and cold shower fits a removable wall-mounted ensuite tent.
A 300Ah Renogy lithium battery, with its own battery management system, runs off 600W of roof solar. A 3000W Renogy pure sine inverter and a 50A DC-DC charger complete the power system.
A pair of 120 litre tanks carries 240 litres of fresh water. An 80 litre grey water tank sits alongside the fresh tanks.
A drawbar measuring 150mm by 50mm by 4mm carries heavy duty independent trailing arm suspension on Bionic RV nitro gas shocks. Kenda Klever 265/75R16 tyres on six-stud alloy rims carry 12 inch electric drum brakes and a handbrake, behind an Ark XO Extreme off-road hitch.
A wireless reverse camera, a 24 inch smart TV and a Dometic reverse-cycle air conditioner join the electric roof and awning as standard.
Southern Cross sells the SC16 Club Off Road direct from its own site in Cockburn Central, Perth, with no separate dealer network. A 12 month warranty covers parts and labour, backed by 5 years on the structure.

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.
