In Germany, caravan owners can obtain a special 'Tempo 100' sticker, allowing them to drive at 100 km/h instead of the standard 80 km/h. The caravan must meet specific requirements, including ABS and certain types of tires. The sticker is valid only in Germany.

Driving the same car and caravan, the maximum permitted speed can increase by 40 km/h after crossing borders. In the Netherlands, a passenger car with a trailer up to 3,500 kg is limited to 90 km/h; in Belgium, 120 km/h; in France, 130 km/h. In France, the higher limit depends not on actual weight but on the maximum permissible mass of the combination stated in field F.3 of the registration document. If that value exceeds 3,500 kg, the limit on French motorways is 90 km/h. In rain, the motorway limit drops to 110 km/h.

IT Italy

In Italy, round stickers with numbers 70 and 80 are mandatory on caravans and trailers. They indicate the legal maximum speeds: 80 km/h on motorways and 70 km/h on other roads outside built-up areas. The requirement applies to all vehicles, including foreign ones, such as Dutch. The stickers must be placed on the rear of the trailer: 70 on the left, 80 on the right, preferably reflective and without covering the license plate or lights.

The EU has adopted Directive 2025/2205, allowing B-license holders to drive motorhomes up to 4,250 kg with additional code 96.02. However, member states have yet to transpose the directive into national law, with actual implementation expected no earlier than late 2029. The Netherlands currently has a limited exemption for motorhomes up to 4,250 kg, but only for non-petrol/diesel vehicles, with at least two years of B-license experience and without a trailer. Exceeding 3,500 kg also results in higher tolls, different speed limits, and increased ferry fares.

German manufacturer Frankia from Oberhaid is radically restructuring its range: classic F-Line, Titan and Platin series are being discontinued, replaced by new models on Mercedes-Benz Sprinter chassis. The new Noctra Liner (from €157,900) and Neo Liner (from €124,900) are built on Sprinter, while the Together Edition anniversary model (from €119,900 for alcove, from €143,900 for integrated) and Final Edition F-Line/Titan (from €139,990) remain on Fiat Ducato. From 2027, all Frankia motorhomes will be front-wheel drive only, with rear-wheel drive dropped from the program.

Campingparadies Kellenhusen on the Baltic Sea has created 57 new paved motorhome pitches. The pitches are divided into four categories for vehicle lengths from 5 to 10 metres, all with electricity and water connections. A new disposal station, four washing stations and a dog shower complete the offer. In the 2026 season, the campsite recorded 35% more arrivals than in the same period in 2025. The season is to be extended in future: a new check-in machine will allow bookings for self-caterers over the New Year period, initially without a water connection outside the regular season. Winter operation may become possible depending on weather conditions. A new reception building with storage areas and an operator flat is planned for the future. The campsite has existed since 27 March 1999 and currently offers around 280 pitches for permanent campers, caravans, tents and motorhomes. A generational change is due next year.
