Interview with Zhou Zicheng, President of the Automotive Culture and Tourism Branch of the China Cultural Industry Promotion Association, on the Rise of Camper Vans and New Trends in Automotive Tourism Consumption

The rise of camper vans reflects a shift in consumer demand towards affordable, short-trip experiences, while the broader automotive tourism industry is transitioning from niche to scaled development. Key challenges include fragmented policy implementation, a lack of unified standards for campsite certification and route planning, and insufficient charging infrastructure in western counties. Industry efforts focus on integrating AI technology into vehicles and campsites, developing themed travel routes, and promoting 'campsite+' models that combine with agriculture and intangible cultural heritage to increase value.

Electric Ruisheng M8 camper not launched, petrol version from 126,800 yuan remains the top choice
