In Lippstadt, police stopped a motorhome that had all its windows removed, including the windshield, due to the heat. The vehicle was deemed unsafe and its journey was halted. It turned out to be a rare Bawemo model, a luxury German brand from the 1970s-1990s, with well-preserved examples valued up to €50,000.

The town of Torgelow in the Vorpommern-Greifswald district plans to redesign an island in the Uecker river to attract more water tourists and motorhome travelers. The approximately two-hectare island will partly become a caravan site and partly a park, with a bridge planned for access. The town council will decide on the project in September. Torgelow already has a motorhome parking area used by tourists heading to the Baltic Sea and Usedom.

At the Caravan Salon in Düsseldorf (August 28 – September 6, 2026), German company Eifelland will present the electric Nissan Interstar-e van designed for surfers and water sports enthusiasts. The 6.31-meter model differs from standard vans by lacking a traditional dinette and fixed bathroom, instead featuring modular seats on rails, a spacious kitchen on the left, a permanent bed above a large storage area, and a dry toilet. Options include up to five seats, a pop-up roof (from 2027), and a shower. Fresh water capacity is 20 liters; no water heater is installed.

From August 28 to September 6, the 65th Caravan Salon takes place in Düsseldorf, with 830 exhibitors presenting caravans, motorhomes, campervans, and accessories. Highlights include compact models for budget-conscious buyers and luxurious all-wheel-drive motorhomes with enhanced self-sufficiency. In 2023, the show attracted 269,000 visitors from 80 countries; for 2025, organizers expect 249 new products.
