Dutch conversion company Vantrac has started mass production of the Lightcamp electric camper based on the Kia PV5. Its key feature is removable modules, allowing the vehicle to be used as a cargo van on weekdays and a camper on weekends. Inside, a sliding bed measuring 188×129.5 cm is installed, and a roof pop-up tent is optional. V2L capability provides up to 3.6 kW for external devices without a generator.

The 3-3-3 rule for slow travel in motorhomes

The 3-3-3 rule, promoted as a camping trend for summer 2026, limits daily driving to 300 km, arrival by 3:00 PM, and a minimum stay of three nights per site. Adapted from the US version (300 miles), it aims to reduce driving stress and campsite booking pressure. In Italy, the rule suits mountainous roads and traffic, allowing travelers to explore regions more thoroughly.
