Motorhome tourists undeterred by diesel prices, adapt routes
Original source: Osthessen|News

In Brief

A motorhome parking lot in Alsfeld, Germany, remains full despite rising fuel costs. Tourists adjust routes by shortening distances and staying longer at one spot, but do not cancel trips. The city plans to expand the lot by 26–28 spaces in 2026.

The motorhome parking lot in Alsfeld, Germany, remains fully occupied despite rising diesel prices. Surveyed tourists are adjusting their itineraries by reducing travel distances and spending more time at a single stop, but they are not cancelling their trips. Some couples are considering switching to electric vehicles but find them unaffordable due to high costs and limited selection.

The city authorities plan to expand the parking lot by 26–28 spaces in 2026 due to high demand.

Additionally, dealer Suncoast Wohnmobile is hosting the "Womo Italiano" event on April 25–26, 2026, in Alsfeld. The exhibition will feature new motorhome models from Etrusco, Chausson, Rimor, as well as used vehicles. Visitors will be offered special discounts on purchases and rentals.

Nissan to Show Electric Camper Interstar-e Relax at Düsseldorf Show

Nissan and German converter Eifelland have developed the Interstar-e Relax, an electric camper based on the Interstar-e van. It features an 87 kWh battery, a WLTP range of 410 km, and a 141 hp electric motor. Thanks to V2L capability, the standard Truma Eezy parking heater can run directly from the high-voltage battery, eliminating the need for external power or a diesel heater. The interior includes four seats, a kitchen with a 90-liter fridge, induction hob and sink, a fixed bed measuring 1.9 by 1.6 meters, and 2.6 cubic meters of storage. The vehicle will be publicly shown at the Caravan Salon Düsseldorf from August 28 to September 6. The price is set at $102,000.

Legendary GDR Cinema: How Campers Remember the 'Tin Box'

In Sandersdorf, the former campsite cinema known as the 'Tin Box' remains a cherished memory for permanent campers. The structure, with its characteristic arched halls made of corrugated metal, was built in the late 1950s and served as a meeting point and entertainment venue for vacationers, children, and locals. The cinema was part of a program to provide entertainment for campers, especially along the Baltic coast, and operated even in bad weather.
