As of May 2026, there are over 8,000 HVO100 filling stations in Europe, led by Italy (36%), Spain (20%), and Sweden (12%).

Choosing a Camper Fridge and Rental Logistics: Hidden Limits to Freedom

Rental prices range from 90 to 250 euros per day depending on the season, with fuel consumption reaching 8–10 liters per 100 km. Wild camping is prohibited in most European countries, and a standard category B license is required for vehicles up to 3.5 tons.

Essential Tips for Your First Motorhome Trip

A first motorhome trip requires preparation and consideration of the vehicle's specifics. It is essential to know the exact dimensions and total weight, which with a category B license must not exceed 3500 kg, and to secure all items inside properly. It is advised to plan no more than 300 km per day, arrive at campsites around 2:00 PM, and shop at large shopping centers with spacious parking.

Easy Caravanning GetAway CS with fold-out bed arrives at dealers

Dutch manufacturer Easy Caravanning has started dealer deliveries of the GetAway CS. It is the production version of the GetAway TB prototype shown in October 2025. The caravan measures 4 metres in length and 1.85 metres in width, and features a fixed transverse double bed (2.10×1.45 metres), part of which folds outwards through a luggage hatch when parked. The rear seating area converts into a child bed (1.70 metres long), with an optional upper bunk, providing sleeping capacity for up to four people. The model lacks a traditional front locker, freeing up interior space; a pop-up roof with panoramic windows adds headroom and light. The GetAway CS is built in the Netherlands and is now on display at selected dealers.

Dutch magazine tests towing with four Mazda models including new CX-5

Dutch outdoor magazine ACSI freelife magazine conducted a comparative towing test of the new Mazda CX-5, CX-60, CX-80, and MAZDA6e. The CX-5 was rated best in price-to-performance, but for trailers over 1,650 kg the CX-60 or CX-80 are recommended. The CX-80 offered the highest stability due to its longer wheelbase and higher weight. The MAZDA6e, the only EV in the test, showed strong low-end torque but its range dropped by nearly half.
