SIXTY YEARS IN THE MAKING

EVERNEW RT-X 30 REVIEWS

IN BRIEF

5.88m (19ft 3in) couple's van with high-end offroad touring spec
3500kg ATM with a healthy 866kg payload
Impressive attention to detail in the build quality

“The attention to detail in this van is among the best I have seen”

We are getting to know the RT-X series at Caravan World pretty well, having reviewed the smaller (RT-X 28) and larger (RT-X 35) siblings in recent times. We have learnt that the RT stands for rugged terrain and the X designates extreme. The RT-X 30 on review sits in the middle of the range with a 5.88m (19ft 3in) body and a 2634kg tare weight.

Dani Bib, the owner of the company, joined me for the day to run through the van and share some more about the company. The decals on the van proclaiming ‘Est. 1963’ tells us Evernew has hit the 60-year anniversary milestone, and they have every right to crow about it. Dani bought the business in 2017 and has passionately worked on modernising product functionality while maintaining traditional build quality.
