In Brief

Carado has announced the CV595 X-Edition, an all-wheel-drive camper based on the VW Crafter for the 2027 model year. Price ranges from about 90,000 to 92,650 euros.

German manufacturer Carado has introduced the new CV595 X-Edition camper based on the Volkswagen Crafter with 4Motion all-wheel drive and an 8-speed automatic transmission. This is the first time the brand has used a Volkswagen base. The model is likely a twin of the Sunlight Ibex, presented in May 2026.

The vehicle is powered by a 2.0-liter turbo diesel engine producing 163 hp and 400 Nm of torque, and features off-road upgrades: tires on reinforced Delta 4x4 rims, rear differential lock, increased ground clearance, and additional LED headlights. The camper is 5.99 meters long.

Standard equipment includes four seats and two or three sleeping berths up to two meters long, a kitchen block, sink, dining area, refrigerator, and a shower with toilet. An optional winter package adds improved insulation, a more powerful heater, and water heating. The expected price is around 90,000 euros (according to one source) or 92,650 euros (according to another).

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.

Two accidents on the A23 motorway between Heide and Albersdorf on Wednesday morning led to temporary closures in both directions. At around 10:15, a Tesla driver lost control in heavy rain while heading north; the car skidded and hit a motorhome travelling in the right lane. The motorhome driver also lost control, left the road and struck the crash barrier. The Tesla driver and one person from the motorhome were injured and taken to hospital. A separate accident occurred on the opposite carriageway when a Mercedes hit the barrier; no one was hurt. The northbound lane reopened at around 12:15 after recovery work.
