In Brief

Ten Chinese departments, including the Ministry of Culture and Tourism, issued measures to boost motorhome consumption: non-commercial small and micro motorhomes no longer have a mandatory service life, rental vehicles' service life is extended from 15 to 25 years, and caravan trailers from 15 to 20 years.

On 18 September, the State Council of the PRC circulated a notice from ten departments, including the Ministry of Culture and Tourism, on measures to stimulate motorhome consumption. The document optimises registration, disposal and driver training.

Key measures

  • For non-commercial small and micro motorhomes, the mandatory service life is abolished — it is equated to passenger cars.
  • For rental small and micro motorhomes, the service life is increased from 15 to 25 years.
  • For residential caravan trailers, the service life is increased from 15 to 20 years.
  • The document also provides for more test sites for category C6, the creation of motorhome parking, campsite development and financial support measures.
