According to a survey by Istituto Piepoli for Assocamp, 57.7% of dealers report that motorhome buyers are switching from traditional tourism (hotels, resorts), and 38.5% from second homes. The main reason is freedom of planning (65.4%), as well as the ability to travel with pets or sports equipment (48.1%). 63.5% of dealers indicate that energy self-sufficiency (lithium batteries, inverters, solar panels) became a key purchasing factor.
Traveling with Pets
A separate article offers recommendations for owners traveling by motorhome with dogs or cats. Before the trip, check the veterinary passport, vaccinations, and microchipping, and study the rules of the destination country. In the motorhome, the animal must be transported in a secured carrier or with a special seatbelt, with stops every 2–3 hours. Campgrounds typically require keeping the dog on a leash and cleaning up after it.
