Dethleffs halves its caravan range
© Dethleffs

Dethleffs has introduced two new alcove motorhomes, the A6822-2 and A7822-2, expanding its XL series. At the same time, the company is cutting its caravan lineup from six to three series, retaining only the entry-level c’joy, c’go, and Summer Edition. The reasons are undisclosed, but the caravan market is declining, with sales down 13% in 2025 and over 8% in the first five months of this year.

Hyundai Ioniq 9 caravan test: strengths and weaknesses

The all-wheel-drive Hyundai Ioniq 9 with a 110 kWh battery delivers 428 hp and can tow a 2.5-tonne trailer. In a test with a two-tonne caravan, acceleration from 80 to 100 km/h took 3.2 seconds, energy consumption was 41.5 kWh per 100 km. However, driver assistance systems (blind-spot monitoring, lane keeping) are disabled when towing, and adaptive cruise control does not cap speed at 120 km/h. Price for the version with a tow hitch starts at €89,100.

Motorhome purchase to cost more: up to €3,000 extra expected

From July 7, 2026, new EU regulations (GSR II) will require all new motorhomes to be equipped with eight electronic safety systems. Industry experts estimate this will increase prices by €1,000–€3,000 per vehicle. The rules apply to factory-built models and self-conversions registered after the deadline. Dealers are currently offering discounts on existing stock with old type approvals.

Rise in campers in the Aachen region: what's behind the boom

The Aachen region (Germany) recorded a record number of camping tourists: nearly 380,000 overnight stays last year, the highest ever, according to the state statistical office. The German Camping Industry Association (BVCD) reports structural changes: long-term pitches are being converted into tourist spots. For instance, Camp Hammer in Simmerath reduced permanent pitches from 90 to 25, while increasing spots for motorhomes and caravans from 25 to over 100.
