Overview
The Station Wagon seats five — slightly more than the Beta's four — and is 5.3m long with an Esky cooler, sleeping two. The Beta is 4.6m with no fridge. Both have no bathroom, no pets, and an 18 minimum age. For a trip where five people are on the road but only two sleep in the van, the Station Wagon has a marginal seating advantage. Otherwise, the Beta and Station Wagon are functionally similar budget options.
