Italian manufacturer Wingamm offers its smallest motorhome, the 5.40-metre Oasi 540.1. In maximum configuration it is priced at €172,468, while the base version starts at €111,741. The high cost is attributed to a fibreglass monocoque body with no seams, 30–50 mm polyurethane foam insulation and underfloor heating integrated into the floor structure. The interior includes a 1.93-metre kitchen unit, a 1.97 by 1.34 metre lifting bed and a full bathroom with shower and toilet. The fully equipped test vehicle weighs 3,085 kg, leaving a payload of 415 kg; a standard driving licence is sufficient in both versions.

Construction has begun on a new camper area in Villanova Mondovì, on the site of former bowling greens. The project, designed by Gerion studio and costing 75,000 euros, will provide just under ten pitches with full water fill and dump services. It is funded by a regional contribution for rest areas. In the same area, Poste Italiane, in collaboration with Enel-X as part of the Polis project, will install an electric vehicle charging station. Meanwhile, in Villanova, work is finishing on porphyry paving in the town centre, and a raised platform is being installed on Via Frabosa at a cost of just over 42,000 euros to slow traffic and improve pedestrian safety.

A hearing before the regional administrative court (TAR) has been scheduled for 21 October to decide on the legality of reopening the Conero campsite in Portonovo. A 32-page appeal filed in September by a local resident seeks to annul all administrative acts and the single regional authorisation (PAUR) that unblocked works after about 16 years of litigation. The procedure, reactivated in recent months, now risks being halted again. The campsite previously opened in 2010 but was closed a year later for similar reasons. The cooperative's leadership aims to reopen the site in June 2027, but work has been postponed pending the court's decision.

Monza's City Council approved a motion by Paolo Piffer to create a public equipped motorhome parking area with camper service. Mayor Paolo Pilotto supported the proposal, noting that a city of 120,000 residents needs accommodation for motorhome travelers. Monza previously had the Santa Maria delle Selve campsite with over 200 pitches, which closed between 2018 and 2019. The new area, intended for 20–30 motorhomes, is to include grey and black water disposal, drinking water supply, and electrical hookups. Management could be municipal or concessioned.

The Reggio Calabria court annulled the preventive seizure order for a 1,280-square-metre area in Contrada Cardara, Brancaleone, used for motorhome parking. The area was seized on 21 August during a Guardia di Finanza inspection. By order of 30 September, the panel ordered the immediate return of the property; the seizure was lifted on 3 October.

Work on the Camper Park at Narni Scalo, Italy, is almost complete, providing 30 pitches for campervans. The site occupies a former Elettrocarbonium employee parking area, set among trees near the Nera Gorge route and a bus stop to the historic centre. A private company will manage the facility, which is scheduled to open next month. The project follows the loss of camper spaces at Suffragio to car parking. A planned extension at Montoro stalled due to a dispute at the Umbria administrative court.
