Austrian startups SpaceCamper and CampBoks expand camper market
Original source: handwerkundbau.at

Two young carpenters from Austria, Paul Schneider and Lothar Gallistl, developed the CampBoks—a modular box that converts vans (VW T4–T7, Mercedes V-Class, Ford Transit Custom) into a full camper in minutes without permanent modifications. The product is available in two versions: Lite (from €6,190) with a bed and nine storage boxes, and Pro (from €7,590) with a shower and kitchen. Production is based in Euratsfeld (Lower Austria) using a self-developed aluminum-plywood construction and RSO software for CNC; delivery time is about two weeks. Sales are via the website and dealers in Germany, Switzerland, and the Netherlands, with free installation for pickup.

Caravan trip to the Alps: Fendt Bianco and BMW X3 tested in Tyrol

Auto Zeitung tested towing the Fendt Bianco caravan (weighing nearly 1.4 t) with a BMW X3 (about 400 hp) on Tyrolean roads. The route ran from the Ötztal valley to the Kühtai saddle (2020 m) and back towards Innsbruck. Towing requires getting used to the dimensions, but assistance systems such as the Truma Smart A mover (optional, €2,158) make maneuvering easier. The caravan offers more living space than a motorhome, and the tow car remains available for independent trips.

Austrian Constitutional Court upholds zoning for campsite in Hinterstoder

The Austrian Constitutional Court has ruled that the controversial zoning for a luxury campsite in Hinterstoder (Kirchdorf district) is lawful. The resort opened last year. Community lawyer Berthold Lindner said the court confirmed the municipal council's decision, which weighed both tourism benefits and potential environmental drawbacks. The campsite can remain, and Lindner stated that a successful challenge to the building permit is unlikely.
