Whether you are navigating the Scottish Highlands in winter or basking in the coastal sun, the Alde central heating and Grade 3 insulation ensure a domestic level of comfort throughout the year.

    Is the Swift Elegance Grande 850 the right luxury caravan for you?

    The Swift Elegance Grande 850 is a flagship 4-berth twin-axle caravan designed for long-term touring and year-round comfort. Measuring 7.98m in length and 2.45m in width, it features a dedicated mid-washroom and a rear island bed. Built using timberless SMART 3 construction, it includes high-specification systems such as Alde central heating and the Swift Command remote monitoring interface. With a 1900kg MTPLM, it requires a powerful tow vehicle but offers a spacious, boutique-style interior.

    • 8ft wide bodyshell providing increased internal living area.
    • Twin-axle chassis with a 1900kg MTPLM and 159kg payload.
    • Rear luxury island bed featuring a Duvalay Duvalite Apollo Luxe mattress.
    • Alde 24-hour programmable central heating and hot water system.
    • Swift Command system with 7-inch LCD touchscreen and remote app control.
    • SMART 3 timberless GRP body construction for enhanced durability.

    Worth knowing: The 2.45m width requires careful navigation on narrow rural roads. A heavy 4x4 or high-capacity tow vehicle is essential for the 1900kg MTPLM. Premium pricing reflects its position as a flagship luxury model.

    Buying a Swift Elegance Grande 850

    Who it suits

    • • Long-term tourers who require the extra space provided by an 8ft wide body.
    • • Couples or small families seeking a permanent rear bed and separate washroom.
    • • Winter caravanners who benefit from Grade 3 insulation and Alde heating.

    Reasons to consider it

    • • The 2.45m width significantly increases floor space in the lounge and bedroom.
    • • Twin-axle stability provides better tracking and a higher payload for equipment.
    • • Flagship status typically ensures strong resale value and high-end fixtures.

    What to check

    • • Verify the operation of the Swift Command touchscreen and app connectivity.
    • • Inspect the Alde Flow system for continuous hot water performance.
    • • Check the condition of the GRP outer skin and timberless frame seals.
    • • Confirm the presence of the Duvalay mattress in the rear bedroom.

    Worth knowing: Ensure your driving licence permits towing a vehicle of this weight (MTPLM 1900kg). Check the specific year of manufacture as features like the 30-litre internal tank may vary by production date.

    Compare the Swift Elegance Grande 850 with similar models

    ModelBerthsMTPLMLengthTypical price
    Swift Elegance Grande 85041900 kg7.98 m£32,000 to £46,500
    Swift Elegance Grande 83541900 kg7.98 m£32,000 to £48,500
    Swift Elegance41900 kg7.98 m£22,000 to £46,000

    The Swift Elegance Grande 850 sits at the top of the Swift range, sharing its 7.98m length and 1900kg MTPLM with the 835 model but offering a distinct mid-washroom and rear island bed layout. When compared to the Coachman Laser Xcel or Buccaneer Barracuda, it maintains a competitive 159kg payload and utilizes the proprietary SMART 3 timberless construction. While the 8ft width offers superior internal volume, it presents different towing considerations than standard 7ft 6in models like the base Swift Elegance.

    Worth knowing: Specifications and prices can vary by model year, trim and optional equipment.

    Ownership and Maintenance Tips

    • Utilise the Swift Command app to pre-heat the caravan via the Alde system before arrival.
    • Check tyre pressures regularly to maintain the stability benefits of the twin-axle configuration.
    • Ensure the 159kg payload is distributed evenly across the axles to optimise towing performance.

    Common mistakes to avoid

    • • Underestimating the turning circle required for an 8ft wide twin-axle caravan.
    • • Failing to monitor the 30-litre internal fresh water tank levels during off-grid use.

    Worth knowing: The 7.98m length and 2.45m width may exceed the capacity of some standard storage pitches.
