Thuringia is the cheapest region for camping in Germany

Clever Vans has introduced the Duo 540, a 5.4-meter-long campervan designed exclusively for two people. The model features an unconventional layout with a combined seating and bed area at the rear, a base price starting at €47,999, and a compact 60-liter freshwater tank.

Motorhome manufacturer Frankia is discontinuing two model lines — F-Line and Titan — with a special Final Edition series based on the Fiat Ducato chassis. The series includes three models ranging from 6.4 to 7.9 meters in length, featuring enhanced standard equipment such as lithium batteries, solar panels, and an Alde heating system. Prices start at 139,990 euros, which the manufacturer claims is 7,000–14,000 euros cheaper than ordering the options separately.

A caravan was stolen from a secured parking site in Haltern and moved to the Netherlands. Police apprehended two suspects in Eindhoven after the owner, using a GPS tracker, reported the trailer's location. The vehicle has not yet been returned to the owner.

Due to rising fuel prices, the fuel consumption of cars towing caravans has become a relevant issue. According to CARAVANING tests over two years, only five models achieved a consumption of less than 11 liters of diesel per 100 km.

Caravan manufacturer Hobby has dismissed CEO Bernd Löher with immediate effect. The company's management in Fockbek stated it made this decision and is now seeking a successor.

Duisburg police are organizing a free weighing event for motorhomes and caravans on March 23, 2026. The initiative aims to detect overload and is conducted in cooperation with DEKRA and Verkehrswacht. Owners can also receive safety consultations, including advice on theft protection and tire checks.
