Car camping means sleeping in your own car without converting it into a motorhome. According to ADAC, about 40% of German drivers have slept in their car at least once. To start, you only need a mattress, a sleeping bag, and window shades. Note that in Italy, sleeping in a vehicle outside campsites is almost entirely prohibited, with fines ranging from 100 to 500 euros.
