Why RVs Haven't Caught On in Russia
Original source: ГлагоL

In Brief

RVs in Russia haven't become a mass travel format due to high purchase and maintenance costs, weak infrastructure, long distances, and cultural habits.

RVs in Russia have not become a mass travel format. According to sources, the main reasons are the high cost of purchase and maintenance, including fuel, service, and storage. Infrastructure for them is poorly developed: there is a lack of campsites with water and electricity. Long distances and poor roads make trips tiring, while the short season and cultural preferences (dachas, sanatoriums) limit demand. Interest in RVs is growing, but the market remains niche.
