From 7 July 2026, the second stage of EU regulation GSR II comes into force, requiring all new motorhomes registered in the EU to be equipped with a range of electronic assistants. Light models up to 3.5 tonnes must have eight systems, including automatic braking, lane keeping, fatigue monitoring and tyre pressure monitoring. Heavier vehicles additionally require blind-spot information and moving-off warning systems.
According to industry estimates, this will increase the cost of each new motorhome by €1,000–€3,000. Owners of already registered vehicles need not worry — the requirement does not apply to them.
