| Model | Berths | Maximum weight | Length | Typical price |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Swift Kon Tiki | 6 | 4250 kg | 7.30 m | £35,000 to £120,000 |

The Swift Kon-Tiki occupies a premium position with a 4250kg MTPLM and 750kg payload, offering significant carrying capacity compared to 3500kg alternatives like the Elddis Majestic or Bailey Approach. While it shares a six-berth maximum with the Auto-Trail Apache, the Kon-Tiki is distinguished by its specific 7.3-metre footprint and diverse layout options including French and Transverse beds. Choosing between these models involves balancing the Kon-Tiki's high specification against the lighter weight and lower price points of the 3500kg alternatives.
Worth knowing: Specifications and prices can vary by model year, trim and optional equipment.
Swift Kon-Tiki Ownership Advice
- Utilise the garage and internal storage solutions to distribute the 750kg payload evenly.
- Plan routes carefully to accommodate the 2.35-metre width on narrower UK roads.
- Regularly inspect the fixed bed mechanisms and washroom seals to maintain the premium interior.
Common mistakes to avoid
- Underestimating the clearance required for the 2.9-metre height.
- Exceeding the 750kg payload by installing heavy aftermarket accessories without weighing.
Worth knowing: Always confirm the specific MTPLM before travel to ensure legal compliance.
