2024 Jawa Commander- Comprehensive Hybrid Caravan Review and Walk-Around
ฝัง
- เผยแพร่เมื่อ 21 มิ.ย. 2024
- Join Dee & Ant as they give a fully comprehensive walk-around of the brand new 2024 Commander. After pushing this van to it's potential, via the Gibb River Road, we share all of our experiences and why this van may be the best one we've experienced yet.
The 2024 16 foot Commander has evolved from the original 2023 variant, with significant weight reduction on it's predecessor! 200mm wider, and just SO MANY quality inclusions just don't make this a beautiful van to live in, but AWESOME value for money as well. This van offers so much internal and external space- it's perfect for a couple who is looking for rugged off-road performance, plus luxury inside. The power plant in this van can sustain a couple almost indefinitely. Please make sure you ask any questions that come to mind, we are really happy to share our experiences to date. Make sure you are comparing inclusions and quality brand names before you make a purchase. This van includes AS STANDARD:
* State-of-the-art 12V system- 400aH lithium B-TEC batteries, 3000W AC transfer inverter, 100A 240V Charger, 40A DC2DC, 40A MPPT independent solar controller, 600W of roof-mounted solar panels, E-PRO battery manager- All highest quality Enerdrive gear
* Lovells shock absorbers and springs
* Koyo wheel bearings packed at the factory and off-road brake magnets
* Eberspacher diesel heater
* Domestic dust reduction system (DRS)
* Truma Aqua-GO instantaneous hot water system
* Significant amounts if extra storage via overhead cupboards that only a solid roof van will give you
* All vans are laser wheel-aligned prior to leaving the factor

We bought the 13’ lowdown a bit over a year ago. Had a few teething problems and the guys couldn’t apologise enough. No one’s fault, stuff happens. We had an electrical fault which was intermittent and a problem to fault find over the phone etc. as we are interstate and not near a Jawa dealer. Jawa (in Windsor) went way out of there way to fix the issue even though we had passed the warranty period. I don’t know of any other manufacturer that would go above and beyond what Mitch and the guys did for us. Problem solved and we love the van and it’s my honest opinion you get more bang for your buck with them.
Love your videos and this one bought back memories of when I did the Gibb with the family. Thanks
Awesome feedback. The team at Windsor are a bunch of legends
I loved this van at the show but
It needs more of the Jawa features on the out side Wasn’t as good as the Jawa and I did speak to them in cairns
When they were up here hope they can make it even better bin next years model although it was good ❤🇦🇺🙏
Vaso gives a good sell on the outer van Cubby's Nice vid guys your Van i like great for 2 👩❤👨 Oi Oi Oi 🇦🇺 Happy travels 🍻 cheers 🍹
Think you guys have done enough JAWA promos how about getting on with the travels…
So glad you enjoy our adventures vids
Always great to see your reviews. We're in the Sirocco Grande 2024 and wondering your opinion on installing a stone stomper. I note you haven't used anything whilst driving the Gibb River Road?
Hi Stephen! I was originally going to get a stone stomper prior to our first lap in 2022, but it was a 6 month wait and didn’t work with our leaving date. We saw many people travelling with them, and several who hadn’t connected them properly and hence, flapping around everywhere at 100km/h. Spoke to a few who loved theirs and other who thought they were a waste of time…..
The main reason I’d get one, is if we were in a Landcruiser or Patrol with a big rear window. We deliberately chose a solid back canopy without glass as the main thing a SS does is protect the rear of the car…. We have zero damage on the front of the Commander even after doing the GRR… they are pretty good at holding mud down when wet more so than stones
Thank you. That's great to hear. We've decided against for the time being although we do have stones hitting the rear tailgate of the Isuzu ute at times.
Very much appreciate your reply and looking forward to the next video.
Hey Great review do like the Jawa range seriously considering one i noticed in the video where Dee showed inside the small storage place in the corner by the bed where she said its good for keys there looked like a crack in the cabinetary?
Hi mate. I’ll have to take a quick look
Great review! Will you be testing the Retreat too?
We’ve still got a few more adventures in the 2024 Jawa range, so we hope so!
Guys - tossing up between the Sirocco Grande and the Commander. If you had to buy one, which would you buy? Just the 2 of us and 2 little dogs.
Hmmm, it’s a tough question because they are different vans. We’d probably go for the Commander, but that’s just our choice. The Grande was also an awesome van
Have you guys trialled the Escape?
Which one do you mean- Retreat, Tarwarri or Infinity?
Just watched this clip, did I notice a crack in the carcass near your bed?
Hi mate. It’s a crack in the gloss enamel on the sub-frame. There’s a tack weld on it that’s still good, but the paint has a hairline crack in it. Good spot, I hadn’t even noticed it
No worries at all, really enjoyed watching
Love your vids and passion, but slow down a little bit, just came across a little hectic. We still love you guys though.
Made in China? Assembled in Windsor?
Correct I guess. So the chassis and shell are imported and then the suspension, electrics etc are done here. Both at Windsor and Caloundra
WTF Are OFF ROAD MAGNETS ? Are they some new invention that holds your van to the ground while your off roading? What a load of BS 💩The marketing people will have to do better than that next time
Standard magnets rattle on the steel actuating arm and cause the arm to cut itself into the steel magnet housing. The Off-Road magnet on the other hand has a plastic insert that negates rattle and the cutting action. There’s a fair bit of info out there with a simple google search
