Hannes Camper redesigns the stove in its camper vans

The German startup Hannes Camper has updated the interior design and introduced new kitchen technology for its camper vans based on the Citroën Jumper and Fiat Ducato. The key innovation is an integrated gas stove with a ceramic glass surface for easier cleaning. The base Viica 54 model, measuring 5.4 meters, starts at 74,900 euros, but the standard battery limits off-grid capability.

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.

De Wild to host Radio 2 morning and afternoon shows from camper again

Live broadcasts will air from French campsites and historic locations, also on NPO 1 Extra. The project marks the transition between the old and new morning shows: Jan-Willem Roodbeen and Jeroen Kijk in de Vegte leave on July 31, replaced by Daniël Lippens and Roelof de Vries from August 3.

Easy Caravanning GetAway CS with fold-out bed arrives at dealers

Dutch manufacturer Easy Caravanning has started dealer deliveries of the GetAway CS. It is the production version of the GetAway TB prototype shown in October 2025. The caravan measures 4 metres in length and 1.85 metres in width, and features a fixed transverse double bed (2.10×1.45 metres), part of which folds outwards through a luggage hatch when parked. The rear seating area converts into a child bed (1.70 metres long), with an optional upper bunk, providing sleeping capacity for up to four people. The model lacks a traditional front locker, freeing up interior space; a pop-up roof with panoramic windows adds headroom and light. The GetAway CS is built in the Netherlands and is now on display at selected dealers.
