Tractor without plates towing caravan on Plovdiv ring road

At Koprinka Reservoir in Bulgaria, scammers posing as members of the TsRRO Koprinka tried to charge caravan owners 5 euros. The TsRRO members, authorized only to collect membership fees for fishing, stated they never demand a caravan fee. They urged citizens to ask for identification and report suspicious individuals to 112.

A major fire broke out on the afternoon of July 4, 2026, near Chernomorets, Bulgaria. The blaze destroyed several bungalows and a caravan; tourists were evacuated, no injuries reported. The cause is under investigation.

Actress Nina Dobrev appeared on the US morning show Live with Kelly and Mark to talk about her summer vacation on the Bulgarian Black Sea coast. She spent nearly a week with her family, sleeping in a caravan owned by her father, parked directly on the sand. Dobrev highlighted the warm weather and crystal-clear water, calling the Bulgarian sea a 'well-kept secret'. This was her first visit to Bulgaria in about six years.

When choosing a car for towing a trailer or caravan, horsepower alone is not the decisive factor. Torque and its range are more important: a wide plateau from 1500 to 3500 rpm is preferable to a peak at 4000–5000 rpm. Diesel engines are generally more convenient, as they achieve good traction at 1300–1800 rpm, while naturally aspirated petrol engines often come alive closer to 2500–3500 rpm. For a trailer weighing about 1 ton and a car weighing about 2 tons, a torque of at least 300–350 Nm in a wide range is desirable. The transmission also matters: a classic automatic with a torque converter handles loads better than a CVT or a dual-clutch robot. It is recommended to use no more than 3/4 of the manufacturer's maximum trailer load capacity.
