For couples, a compact campervan like the "V3" with a 100-liter fresh water tank would be a cost-effective choice, potentially ranging from $60-$100 AUD per day for an extended rental. Larger families or groups, however, might prefer a 6-berth motorhome such as the "MH-A" (8.8m length, 167L fresh water tank), which could see daily rates from $130-$200 AUD depending on the time of year and the length of the rental. These long-term rates become more attractive the longer you rent, offering excellent value for extended exploration around Brisbane and across Australia.
