Russians increasingly choose motorhomes with an alcove

Demand for motorhomes with an alcove—a raised living area above the driver's cab—is growing in Russia. These models offer extra space for a permanent double bed and kitchen, appealing to families and long-distance travelers. However, the high alcove worsens aerodynamics, increasing fuel consumption, and the dimensions (height over 3.3 m, weight over 3.5 t) require a category C license and careful navigation of bridges and tunnels. New motorhomes start at 10 million rubles, used ones from 3.5 million.
