RV Market in Russia: Rental Growth, Chinese Models, and Infrastructure Challenges

The Russian RV market is expanding with new rental options and domestic production, though infrastructure remains a key constraint. Chinese-made motorhomes are entering the rental market, priced around 28,000 rubles per day, but are considered cramped for local users. The most popular segment remains caravans, with a growing number of domestic manufacturers offering serial models. Campgrounds with full hookups are still scarce, with many existing only as basic parking areas.
