Bürstner Signature SFT rethinks motorhome layout

Bürstner has launched the Signature series, a new model line that aims to redefine the design of seven-meter motorhomes. The SFT 7.5 model is based on a Fiat Ducato chassis with an AL-KO low-frame platform and features a 2.2-liter 140 hp turbodiesel engine with an 8-speed automatic transmission. Interior solutions borrow from more expensive models by Niesmann+Bischoff, part of the same Erwin Hymer Group.

Hymer Grand Canyon S vs. SAM the Van Iglhaut: two all-wheel-drive campers compared

Autobild compared the production all-wheel-drive camper Hymer Grand Canyon S Crossover with the exclusive SAM the Van Iglhaut from a small manufacturer. Both are based on the Mercedes Sprinter but use different AWD systems: Hymer uses the factory system, while SAM features an Iglhaut transfer case with locking differentials. The price difference between the test vehicles exceeded €200,000, with SAM showing significantly better off-road capability and Hymer offering more refined on-road behavior.

Motorhome manufacturer LMC lays off over 100 employees

German motorhome manufacturer LMC Caravan in Sassenberg has announced the dismissal of 106 employees. 88 workers will leave the company by July 31, 2026, and another 18 by January 31, 2027. Affected employees have the option to join a transfer company for retraining and job search support. The layoffs are attributed to a sustained decline in demand for caravans and motorhomes, particularly traditional travel trailers, which a temporary pandemic-era camping boom failed to reverse.
