Caravaning Brno 2026

A motorhome overturned into a ditch on the Fulnek-Vrchy road in the Czech Republic. The driver sustained minor injuries, and firefighters extracted a 10-kilogram gas cylinder from the vehicle and stabilized it.

A family converted a decommissioned bus into a living trailer for five people. The work was done independently, making the project an affordable alternative to buying a ready-made caravan.

A new service station for caravans will be built on the edge of the Bobrky industrial zone in Vsetín this summer. The facility, costing over 800,000 Czech crowns with most covered by a regional subsidy, will offer chemical toilet emptying, drinking water refills, and electrical hookups for a fee, but will not serve as a parking area.

ARI Motors released a camper van the size of a regular van — and it's now Germany's smallest production electric camper at €30,000. JAL decided its passengers hadn't traveled enough and offered a sequel: a motorhome pickup straight from Narita. The lawsuit against Stellantis over "cheat" diesel software, a yellow DHL van in the hands of a retiree, and 413 million campsite overnight stays across Europe — all in this issue.

The compact electric camper Ari 458 Pro for 2026 has been introduced. It is 3.5 meters long, with an area of 2.8 m² and a width of 1.49 meters. A 15 kW electric motor provides a top speed of 70 km/h and a range of 120 to 230 km depending on the 15 or 23.5 kWh battery. The model is offered as a base platform for self-conversion, with a starting price above 30,000 euros.

A Zlín-based startup introduced the Caravanbox Coyot GT, a removable living superstructure for a trailer. The 270 kg construction is positioned as transported cargo, avoiding registration as a residential trailer. The complete set with a trailer and mattress is estimated at around 165,000 CZK.
