Bremen: Motorhome Completely Burns Out in Eastern Suburb

The German company Dethleffs has introduced the Globebus Performance 4×4 T16 motorhome. With a weight under 3500 kg, it can be driven with a standard category B driver's license, while its four-wheel drive and compact width of approximately 2200 mm provide enhanced off-road capability. The model's starting price is 94,999 euros.

On Monday evening in Lichtenstein-Unterhausen, an 85-year-old driver crashed his motorhome into a parked Volkswagen. The total property damage is estimated at around 25,000 euros, with no injuries reported. Both vehicles had to be towed from the scene.

The German company Weiro manufactures caravans based on construction trailers. Models ranging from 3.5 to 7 meters in length are offered either for self-conversion or as ready-to-use units, with options for materials and insulation. Prices start at 4,500 euros for basic versions intended for self-conversion, while fully equipped, winter-ready models can cost over 25,000 euros.

The publication promobil.de tested dishwashing accessories for the limited space in motorhomes and campers. The review included the universal sink plug Bo-trail Sink Plug, the flexible soaking bowl Soft Soak for grill grates, the solid detergent Klar-Seifen, the multifunctional drying mats Metaltex Gravity-Duo/Slim, and the custom sink insert Perfect Van.

The Dethleffs Trend I 7057 EBL motorhome, one of the brand's most popular models, has been tested. The 7.4-meter-long vehicle has a base price under €100,000, accommodates up to four people, and has a gross weight of 3.5 tons, allowing it to be driven with a standard category B license. The test vehicle featured a 180 hp diesel engine instead of the standard 140 hp unit.

Demand for camping at Pentecost is growing faster than in summer, and many popular regions are already fully booked. Available spots can still be found in the Black Forest, North Sea, Mecklenburg Lake District, Switzerland, southern Sweden, and Provence. Before the trip, a thorough technical check of the motorhome or caravan is required, including tires, brakes, fluids, water system, and gas equipment.
