A caravan caught fire at a campsite in Sweden. No one was inside the trailer at the time of the fire, and there were no injuries.

In the first five months of 2026, Sweden registered 57% more new motorhomes than a year earlier. The increase is partly due to early registrations for Euro 6 compliance, so actual demand is slightly lower.

Sweden registered 1,887 new motorhomes in the first four months of 2026, a 60% increase compared to 1,168 units in the same period of 2025. The average price of a new motorhome is around SEK 1 million. Demand is shifting toward smaller models, attracting a younger demographic that uses motorhomes for activities like surfing and mountain biking. Dealers report sustained interest throughout the year, not just during the spring and summer.
