New Pössl off-road Sprinter camper with huge bed under €100,000

At the Caravan Salon, Dethleffs presented the C.Core concept vehicle, which is not a preview of a production model but a test platform. It features lightweight materials (Necto, recycled PET), modular furniture, a deployable solar panel with up to 600 W output, a closed-loop water system with filtration, and a projector instead of a TV. Dethleffs says the system can operate largely autonomously from May to September under favorable conditions.

In Brandis, in the Leipzig district, a VW Multivan and a caravan parked on a public lot caught fire overnight Saturday. The blaze also damaged a nearby Opel Crossland. Firefighters extinguished the fire by 3:40 a.m.; no injuries were reported. Police are investigating a possible arson.

The Mercedes-Benz EQT 200 Long with the Marco Polo module costs over 62,000 euros in a practical configuration, far above the advertised base price. The vehicle is technically identical to the Renault Kangoo E-Tech Electric, sharing the CMF-B EV platform, a 90 kW electric motor, and a 45 kWh battery. Real-world range is 180–240 km in summer and 150–180 km in winter, while the 80 kW maximum DC charging power is only achieved in a narrow state-of-charge window. The Brabus-developed Marco Polo module adds 200 kg and costs 3,500 euros but lacks a built-in auxiliary heater. Mercedes faces criticism for the high price, limited range, and software issues with MBUX.

At the 2026 Dusseldorf Caravan Show, Beauer unveiled the X6 prototype, a transformable travel trailer that expands from 2.15 to 3.6 meters in width at camp. The 7.2-meter model features two bedrooms, a living area, a dry bathroom, and a terrace. Prices start at €74,990, with a maximum permissible weight of 1,800 kg.

On Saturday, a collision occurred between a Suzuki car and a motorhome in the municipality of Waldsassen. The motorhome driver fled the scene. Police are seeking witnesses and information about a brown motorhome.

In the night before Sunday, a caravan parked in a large parking lot on Poelchaustraße in Marzahn-Hellersdorf burned out completely. When firefighters arrived, the trailer was already fully engulfed in flames; the rapid extinguishing prevented the fire from spreading to nearby cars, which were only damaged by the heat. A propane cylinder stored in the caravan also caught fire, but was extinguished and continuously cooled to prevent bursting. The cause of the fire is not yet known; police have launched an investigation.
