A couple from Moers converted an old 1973 Nagetusch motorhome into a mobile crêperie with a coffee bar. They bought the trailer on eBay Kleinanzeigen, spent two years renovating it while preserving the original exterior, but increased its weight to 1300 kg and added brakes. Since 2021, they have been serving crêpes and coffee at regional events.

A comparative study of travel costs between motorhome trips and hotel stays in Northern Europe.

Comparative tests revealed that aerodynamics are more important than weight for electric cars towing trailers. Tests with a Tesla Model Y and a Škoda Karoq at the Boxberg proving ground showed that the larger Fendt Bianco 495 SG trailer was more efficient than the smaller Next 380 due to better aerodynamics. At 100 km/h, the Tesla's consumption with the smaller trailer was 3.3 kWh/100 km higher.
