We’re thrilled to announce that Offroad Grit RV is now available in New Zealand through our new partner D&E Outdoors (part of Drummond & Etheridge) —opening up a whole new chapter of adventure for Kiwis who demand rugged, premium off‑road caravans built to last.
Why D&E Outdoors?
D&E has a long and strong history in New Zealand. Drummond & Etheridge has “been built on a reputation of talking straight with customers and providing quality service long after the initial sale”. It’s a family‑owned company, operating across the South Island, with decades of experience in delivering reliable gear, servicing heavy‑duty machinery, and supporting outdoor lifestyle, from agriculture to recreation.
That heritage of honesty, quality and after‑sales support aligns perfectly with our philosophy at Offroad Grit RV. We build our vans with no timber, fibreglass composite walls, XPS insulation, high‑capacity solar, Solid power systems and a strong chassis and suspension. We don’t compromise on longevity or performance and neither does D&E.
What this partnership means for you
If you’re in New Zealand and you’ve been eyeing a high‑end off‑road caravan that’s ready for remote tracks, rugged terrain and serious adventure, you now have access. Through D&E Outdoors:
You’ll be able to inspect stock vans locally in NZ, get hands‑on with our build quality, materials and finish.
You’ll benefit from the local knowledge and service network that D&E bring which means better support, sourcing parts, servicing and peace of mind.
We’ll work together to customise a spec that suits your lifestyle and the NZ terrain, while maintaining the durability and off‑road readiness Offroad Grit is known for.
For Australians made with Aussie experience, but now supported in the NZ market.
Why Offroad Grit RV made this move
Because we believe that adventure doesn’t stop at the Tasman. The landscapes of NZ, coastal tracks, high country, 4×4 trails, remote lakeside campsites, demand gear that won’t quit. Likewise, New Zealand adventurers deserve access to caravans that are built for serious conditions, not just road‑cruising comfort. With D&E’s proven network and service ethic, we felt this was the right partner to bring our brand into NZ without losing our standards.
Looking ahead
Over the coming months we’ll be working with D&E Outdoors to:
Showcase various layouts in NZ for demo and inspection.
Provide build‑spec information tailored to NZ terrain, regulations and customer needs.
So if you’re in NZ and you’ve been on the lookout for a premium off‑road caravan that does everything, big water/solar capacity, no gas inside, strong chassis, great storage, and built with no compromise, reach out to D&E Outdoors and ask about the Offroad Grit RV range.
Welcome to the next level of off‑road caravanning.
