Titanium Caravans TS1 vs WS1: common questions
What is the difference between the TS1 and the WS1 from Titanium Caravans?
Both are full off-road vans in the same Titanium Caravans line-up, so the differences are in the published figures rather than in the category. On the specs Titanium Caravans publishes, the TS1 starts at $223,995 and the WS1 at $238,995, both are rated to the same 4,500 kg ATM, fresh water is 245 L against 405 L, solar is 800 W against 1,400 W and payload works out at 1,100 kg and 1,000 kg. The full side-by-side table below covers every figure both ranges publish, and a gap stays a dash rather than a guess. Floorplan choice within each range changes the layout and the sleeping capacity, so confirm the exact build against the compliance plate before you commit.
Which is lighter, the TS1 or the WS1?
Empty, the TS1 is lighter, with a tare weight of 3,400 kg versus 3,500 kg. For towing, the number that matters is each van's maximum loaded weight: the TS1 has an ATM of 4,500 kg and the WS1 4,500 kg - check that figure against your car's braked towing limit.
Which caravan can carry more, the TS1 or the WS1?
The TS1 has the larger payload: 1,100 kg of carrying capacity (ATM minus tare) versus 1,000 kg. That is the weight of water, gear, food and accessories you can legally load before hitting the van's ATM.
Is the TS1 or the WS1 cheaper?
The TS1 has the lower starting price at $223,995, compared with $238,995 for the WS1. Both are published "from" prices - options and on-road costs move the final figure, so confirm the drive-away price with the dealer.
How many people can the TS1 and WS1 sleep?
The TS1 sleeps 2 and the WS1 sleeps 2. Sleeping capacity depends on the floorplan you choose within each range.
