As of July 2026, 57 of the 180 caravan ranges verified by Caravan Compare have a published ATM under 3,000kg, running from 1,080kg up to 3,000kg. ATM is the maximum the van can legally weigh fully loaded — the number your car's tow rating actually has to cover. We leave out the 46 checked ranges that don't publish an ATM rather than guess at a weight.
Caravans Under 3,000kg ATM
Australia 2026
A 3,000kg tow rating opens up most of the market — but not all of it, and the vans that miss the cut rarely advertise the fact. This is the complete list of ranges with a published ATM that actually clears your limit, sorted lightest first, with no weights invented on your behalf.
What actually fits under 3,000kg ATM
On-Road Tourer vans are the biggest group here, making up 20 of the 57 ranges. The rest of the bracket splits into semi off-road (13), full off-road (12), hybrid (8), pop-top (4). 18 of these vans sleep four or more people.

Common Questions
How many caravans under 3,000kg ATM can you actually buy in Australia?
Right now we track 57 caravan ranges with a published ATM under 3,000kg, running from 1,080kg up to 3,000kg. ATM (Aggregate Trailer Mass) is the maximum the van can legally weigh fully loaded — it's the figure your car's tow rating has to cover, not the empty weight in the brochure.
What type of caravan stays under 3,000kg ATM?
On-Road Tourer vans are the biggest group in this bracket, with 20 of the 57 ranges. The full spread is: on-road tourer (20), semi off-road (13), full off-road (12), hybrid (8), pop-top (4). 18 of them sleep four or more, so keeping the weight down doesn't automatically rule out a family layout.
What do caravans under 3,000kg ATM cost?
41 of the 57 ranges in this bracket publish a starting price, running from $35,000 up to $196,000. The other 16 are price-on-application, so you'll need a dealer quote. All prices are manufacturer base-spec "from" figures, before options and on-road costs — treat them as a way to compare brands, then get a drive-away quote.
What car do I need to tow a caravan under 3,000kg ATM?
There's no shortcut here: your vehicle's braked towing capacity must be at least the ATM of the van you pick, and the heaviest van on this page is 3,000kg. But the brochure tow rating isn't the whole story — your car's GCM (Gross Combination Mass) and payload can cut the real legal limit well below it once you load passengers and gear. We never claim a specific car can tow a specific van, because it depends on how you load both. Run your exact vehicle through our free tow calculator, and read our Can I Tow guide for the legal arithmetic.
Why isn't every caravan on the market listed here?
We only include ranges our team has checked, and only those with a published ATM. Another 46 checked ranges don't publish an ATM at all, and we deliberately leave those out of weight pages rather than guess at a number. If a manufacturer won't publish a weight, we won't invent one — on a page about what your car can legally tow, a guessed figure is worse than no figure.
