28-ton motorhome as a mobile penthouse
Original source: Autobahn

The Marchi Mobile eleMMent PALAZZO, weighing 28 tons and offering 68 sq m of living space, blurs the line between a motorhome and real estate. The concept is not new: it first appeared in 2011–2012 and remains on the manufacturer's website. It is powered by a 600 hp Volvo engine, measures 13.7 m in length and 4 m in height, and expands to 5 m in width with slide-outs. In the Netherlands, a C-class driving license is required to operate it.
