Knaus – caravans up to 3.5 t (class O2): the collective page of the manufacturer from Jandelsbrunn in the Bavarian Forest, from the Azur and Sport ranges to the Sudwind and Tango, kerb weights from 220 kg to 1.95 t
O2 is the EU trailer class with a gross weight of 0.75 to 3.5 tonnes; caravans registered legally as braked or unbraked car trailers also fall under this class in the register. Knaus was founded in 1960 by Helmut Knaus, and the company still builds its caravans in Jandelsbrunn in Lower Bavaria. The model names show several ranges and equipment lines side by side: Azur and Sudwind as classic ranges, Sport and Tango as more compact models, TS, TU, TK, TL and TF as layout and equipment codes for a rear bathroom, box-style furniture or storage conversion, with the four-digit number giving the approximate length in centimetres.

The register lists 359 versions here with kerb weights from 220 to 1,951 kg, gross weights from 800 to 2,500 kg, lengths from 5,000 to 9,650 mm and widths from 1,470 to 2,500 mm.
Alongside Tabbert, Hobby and Dethleffs, Knaus is one of the established German caravan brands, and this span covers practically the whole market segment, from the light entry-level caravan to the long family caravan.
On used caravans, what counts above all is damp in the roof, walls and floor (tap test and moisture meter), the condition of the axle, overrun brake and jockey wheel, the seal of windows and roof hatches, and the age and condition of the gas system and fridge; on older models, rust on the chassis frame should be checked.
