Mobicar 2027

The 59th Mobicar exhibition has opened at Brussels Expo. In the first seven months of 2026, Belgium registered 4,754 new motorhomes and caravans, up 9.9%.

In Belgium, a caravan (trailer) cannot remain parked on public roads for more than 24 consecutive hours under Article 27.5.1 of the road code. In the Netherlands, municipalities often allow up to three days, but rules vary locally. Motorhomes (self-propelled vehicles) are not subject to this limit unless they are immobile. The new Belgian road code, effective June 1, 2027, maintains the restriction.

New concessionaire Westend Resort Group requires the RACB campsite in Middelkerke to be vacated by 31 December 2026. Leases will not be renewed and no exceptions will be made.

On 3 October 2026 at around 16:30, a collision between a Jeep and a motorhome occurred on Chaussée Verte in Saint-Georges-sur-Meuse. The motorhome came to rest in a field below the road. Two ambulances attended the scene; one driver was treated for a cut above the eyebrow.

On 21 July in Italy, hail damaged a rented motorhome used by Belgian Nicolas from Wanze and his 9-year-old daughter. Touring assistance refused to help, stating that damage from natural events was not covered; later the insurer and rental agency became involved. After 14 hours, the client was moved to a scrapyard 30 km away, where he spent the night with the child. The return to Belgium was arranged by rental company Evasion Motorhome as a goodwill gesture; the total delay was four days. Touring and the insurance broker did not respond to journalists' inquiries, while AG Insurance said it was reviewing the case.

The Weser-Göhl police zone released its report on incidents from 15–16 September 2026. Overnight on 14–15 September, unknown persons entered a property on Totleger street in Lichtenbusch, smashed the rear window of a parked car, released its handbrake and pushed it aside to steal a caravan parked behind it. On the same day in Hergenrath, a delivery van with a trailer struck one of two cyclists riding electric fatbikes during an overtaking manoeuvre; the injured cyclist was taken to hospital in Eupen, and the van driver fled the scene.
