All caravans under €20,000: which models are still affordable
Original source: PROMOBIL

CARAVANING magazine surveyed the market for production caravans and found that seven manufacturers (Adria, Caravelair, Dethleffs, LMC, Next, Sterckeman, Weinsberg) offer 44 models priced under €20,000. The cheapest options start at €13,000–€15,000, but typically come in very small sizes with reduced equipment.

German magazine Auto Zeitung has published a ranking of five new campervans priced under 50,000 euros, each equipped with a shower and toilet. The list includes the Forster Livin' Up Pro V 599 HBL (from €43,690), Bürstner Papillon (under €40,000), LMC Innovan Pure 600, Carado CV540, and Clever Vans Drive 600 Kids. All featured vans range from 5.4 to 6.4 meters in length and are based on Citroën Jumper or Peugeot Boxer chassis.

At Caravan Salon 2026, three camper vans are available for less than €50,000: Challenger Van V 114 Road Edition (from €48,490), Forster Vantasy V 599 HB (from €48,900), and Roadfans Hopper 600 D pure (€49,999). All are based on Stellantis platforms (Fiat or Citroën), measure 5.99 meters, and feature a transverse bed at the rear. Standard equipment includes kitchen, toilet, and seating, but options such as automatic transmission, more powerful engine, or better insulation can push the price significantly higher.

German manufacturer Frankia from Oberhaid is radically restructuring its range: classic F-Line, Titan and Platin series are being discontinued, replaced by new models on Mercedes-Benz Sprinter chassis. The new Noctra Liner (from €157,900) and Neo Liner (from €124,900) are built on Sprinter, while the Together Edition anniversary model (from €119,900 for alcove, from €143,900 for integrated) and Final Edition F-Line/Titan (from €139,990) remain on Fiat Ducato. From 2027, all Frankia motorhomes will be front-wheel drive only, with rear-wheel drive dropped from the program.

The article describes a first family holiday in an Ahorn Camp A690 motorhome with a two-year-old child. During the trip to the Netherlands, the child complained about noise from the Renault Master, which the author says is not quiet. The author finds the noise level acceptable, noting that other motorhomes may rattle more, but a large alcove is not a silent dream. The main question is whether the Ahorn A690 is the right vehicle for a family with a child and whether they will survive the camping trip.
