330Ah lithium, 500W solar, and Victron 2000VA MultiPlus marine-grade power management - stay out longer, never worry about hookups.

Defender 15 Interior
Hotel-Grade Comfort,
Hand-Built To Tour
The Defender 15 hybrid camper is engineered around how touring couples actually live on the road - queen bed, spacious café lounge, internal kitchen, and a genuinely private full ensuite with hot water. Home comfort in a 15-foot footprint that still goes where larger vans can't.
-
Queen Innerspring Bed
Full queen-size bed with premium innerspring mattress, twin reading lights, and padded bedside bolsters with integrated storage pods - designed for deep rest after long days on the tracks. -
Four-Seat Café Lounge
High-back seating for four around an adjustable table finished in Rhino-Stone - our Australian-made premium engineered stone surface, custom-spec'd for Rhinomax. Equally at home for meals, working remotely, or unwinding with a drink and the view. -
Internal Galley Kitchen
Dedicated internal kitchen with premium Rhino-Stone benchtops, integrated sink with hot/cold mixer tap, base storage drawers, and above-bench cabinets - cook inside when the weather doesn't want you outside. -
Full Internal Ensuite
Private fully-enclosed ensuite with full-size shower tray, diesel-heated hot/cold power shower, and Thetford cassette toilet (composting toilet option available at order). -
Diesel Cabin Heating & Audio
Webasto diesel cabin heating, Sirocco 3-speed fan, and Fusion Bluetooth stereo with twin speakers - year-round touring comfort whether you're chasing the high country or the outback.
Defender 15 Exterior
Compact To Tow,
Built To Basecamp
The Defender 15 hybrid camper is engineered to travel easily and set up fast. Pop-top design drops the travel height for better fuel economy, the narrow body tracks behind your 4WD without drag, and every storage and kitchen feature you need is ready in minutes at camp.
-
Pop-Top Travel Height
Electric push-button pop-top roof lowers the travel profile significantly - better fuel economy, easier garage or carport storage, and lower wind drag on long highway runs between campsites. -
Tracks Within Your 4WD
At just 1.97m wide, the Defender 15 stays within the track width of most Australian tow vehicles - meaning tight off-road trails, bush tracks, and narrow campgrounds open up that larger vans simply can't reach. -
External Slide-Out Kitchen
Full slide-out gourmet kitchen with permanently-plumbed hot/cold mixer tap, stainless sink, and your choice of a 3 burner gas cooktop or dual induction cooktop at order. -
85L Dual-Zone Fridge/Freezer
External slide-mounted 85L dual-zone fridge/freezer - fresh food and frozen storage, accessible from outside without stepping into the van. -
Front Storage Box
Large lockable front storage box designed for firewood, recovery gear, or bulky touring essentials - plus integrated twin jerry can holders and a dedicated gas box. -
Generous Cargo Bays
Multiple large external cargo compartments, including deep under-bed storage accessed from outside - every inch of the Defender 15's exterior is engineered to earn its keep. -
Cruisemaster XT Suspension & DO35
Cruisemaster XT 2,600kg all-terrain coil spring suspension paired with a Cruisemaster DO35 off-road coupling - tested across the toughest Australian touring conditions. ATX air suspension available as an optional upgrade. -
4.5m × 2.5m Awning
Expansive external awning provides generous shade, shelter, and outdoor living space - extending your liveable footprint well beyond the camper itself, with optional walls for full weatherproof enclosure.
Marine-Grade Power System
Built To Stay Off-Grid, Longer
The Defender 15 runs a Victron Energy marine-grade power system — the same electronics trusted on ocean-going yachts. Paired with premium lithium batteries and roof-mounted solar, it's engineered to keep you powered up well beyond where grid power reaches.
Victron Marine-Grade Electronics
The Victron Energy 2000VA MultiPlus inverter/charger and 50A Smart MPPT solar controller are built to marine specification — the same reliability standard used on ocean-going vessels. Proven to outperform generic RV electrics in heat, vibration, and heavy-load conditions.
RM Digital Command Centre
Rhinomax's intelligent power management system gives you full control from a touchscreen, smartphone, or manual switches — monitor batteries, solar, water, and lighting in one dashboard, with smart towing, camping, and storage modes.
500W Solar & 330Ah Lithium
Roof-mounted monocrystalline solar panels feed a premium 330Ah lithium battery bank as standard — with auxiliary connection points for portable panels and battery upgrades available. Designed to harvest maximum energy even in tough Australian conditions.
