Swift Charisma
The Charisma range which has recently seen the introduction of two new single axle models, the 550 fixed rear bed layout with large transverse rear washroom and the 565 triple bunk layout, will see a further new model added to the range later in the season. Launching at the autumn shows, the new 545 will offer a similar layout to the popular 550 but with a rear dinette in place of the fixed bed, which can be converted into a bed.
The range will purely consist of single axle models for the new season with twin axle models featuring in the Challenger and Conqueror ranges only.
