2023 ADRIA ALTEA Other 402PH Sport

The Adria Altea 402 PH Sport sits atop a hot-dipped-galvanised Al-Ko chassis. Essentially no timber is used in the construction of the body. The body is built from hail-resistant composite panels insulated by XPS foam and EPS styropor (an expandable polystyrene), while ABS plastic is used for the front and rear mouldings.

No, theyre not made to forge new trails on Cape York, and nor are they intended to be beaten along the Canning Stock Route. Rather, theyre equipped for a more relaxed way of life. Think of them as blacktop holiday park tourers, with a night or two of free-camping thrown into the mix weighing in at just 1285kg Tare. The fact is, whatever family truckster is in your driveway at the moment could potentially tow this intriguing proposition, even when fully loaded. And therein lies the beauty of the Adria caravanning shouldnt necessarily mean also buying a new 4WD.

Externally, the 402 PH Sport has an external body length of 4.8m and an internal length of 4m, while the external width is a 2.35m. Yet the layout doesnt suffer for the diminutive dimensions. In fact, it even has a club lounge. No, there arent acres of living space, but nor should you expect that in a van of this nature.

First, it was necessary to offset the bed to the offside front corner, which provided the space necessary for an adjacent combo bathroom. Undoubtedly, the vanity setup is the highlight of this small space. It contains a shaving cabinet plus a washbasin that literally folds out from the wall above.

The bed has an elevating back rest. The bed base is made of two independent slatted bases. Lift one side of the mattress, reach underneath, and raise the back rest portion to your preferred position. Under the mattress, Adria has given the little Altea the ducted 2.4kW Truma Saphir combined air-con and space heater, while the water heater is the gas-electric 14L Truma BN14.

The rear half of the van is comprised of the fabric-upholstered offside club lounge and small kitchen. As for the kitchen, it would be reasonable to expect in a van of this nature that it would be on the compact side, and youd be right. However, Adria has made the most of the available bench space by using a combo sink and three-gas-burner cooktop. It forms an L shape, which leaves a bit of bench space for meal prep, but a big tick for the hinged bench extension.
