Is the Knaus Yaseo 340 PX the right electric-ready caravan?
The Knaus Yaseo 340 PX is a specialised two berth caravan engineered for the electric vehicle era. By removing gas installations in favour of an all-electric system, it achieves a low 1100kg MTPLM. Its 5.48m length and 2.2m width make it highly towable for smaller cars, while the fold-down bed technology ensures the interior remains functional despite the compact footprint.
- Gas-free all-electric operation with induction hob and compressor fridge.
- Space-saving fold-down double bed system to maximise daytime floor space.
- Lightweight 1100kg MTPLM designed for electric vehicle towing.
- Compact 5.48m exterior length for high manoeuvrability.
- Front kitchen and rear lounge layout with modern minimalist finishes.
Worth knowing: The 195kg payload must be managed carefully when adding optional equipment. Reliance on electric hook-up is standard unless battery upgrades are fitted. The compact bathroom dimensions may be restrictive for some users.
Buying a Knaus Yaseo 340 PX
Who it suits
- Electric vehicle owners requiring a lightweight, aerodynamic tourer.
- Couples seeking a modern, minimalist interior without traditional gas maintenance.
- Tourists who frequent tight or narrow campsites where a 2.2m width is advantageous.
Reasons to consider it
- The all-electric infrastructure reduces long-term maintenance by removing gas safety requirements.
- The 1100kg MTPLM allows for a wider range of smaller tow cars.
- Innovative use of space provides a large lounge in a caravan under 5.5m long.
What to check
- Verify the specific battery and charging specifications if planning to camp without electric hook-up.
- Test the fold-down bed mechanism to ensure ease of operation.
- Assess the storage volume in the front kitchen area for your specific cooking needs.
- Confirm the final price within the 22500 to 28900 range based on selected options.
Worth knowing: The 195kg payload is modest; buyers should calculate the weight of personal gear and any dealer-fitted extras. As a gas-free model, off-grid capability depends entirely on battery capacity and charging infrastructure.

The Knaus Yaseo 340 PX represents a shift toward electric-focused touring, prioritising low weight and gas-free operation.

While the Elddis Whirlwind provides a traditional alternative, the Yaseo 340 PX is more suited to those prioritising modern infrastructure and EV compatibility within a 22500 to 28900 price bracket.

Ownership and Maintenance Tips
- Utilise the fold-down bed during the day to access the full floor space of the rear lounge.
- Clean the induction hob with appropriate non-abrasive cleaners to maintain the minimalist aesthetic.
- Monitor battery levels closely when not connected to a 230V supply.
Common mistakes to avoid
- Overloading the 195kg payload by installing heavy aftermarket battery banks.
- Assuming standard gas bottles are required; this model uses an induction hob.
Worth knowing: The 2.6m exterior height should be noted for storage and low-clearance routes. The 195kg payload is the maximum allowed for all personal effects and water.
