Bürstner to End Caravan Production by 2027
Original source: automagazin.at

In Brief

German manufacturer Bürstner will fully stop caravan production from the 2027 season, focusing on campers and motorhomes. Service and spare parts for existing owners will continue.

German motorhome manufacturer Bürstner, part of the Erwin Hymer Group, will completely cease production of caravans (trailers) from the 2027 season. The company will focus on campers and motorhomes. Service and spare parts supply for previously built caravans will be maintained in full.

The decision is linked to declining demand for caravans in the industry. According to one source, caravan sales in Europe fell by 11% in 2025, and in Germany by 13.4%. Caravan production had historically been the foundation of Bürstner's business since the 1950s.

Traditional brand withdraws from caravan segment

Bürstner will stop producing caravans from the 2027 season as part of a strategic refocus on camper vans and motorhomes. The decision comes amid declining caravan sales: in 2025, about 54,200 new caravans were registered in Europe (down 11% from 2024), and 18,766 in Germany (down 13.4%). The motorhome market remains stable, with 161,000 registrations in Europe (+0.6%) and 75,368 in Germany (+0.9%). Bürstner will continue to produce a compact camper van, a six-meter panel van, and a semi-integrated motorhome, and will maintain spare parts supply for existing caravans.
