The latest episode of the "Camping Car Mania" series features a 2021 Mercedes-Benz V-Class Marco Polo. The vehicle has a pop-up roof with a sleeping area and a kitchen, while its overall height is about 2 meters, making it suitable for everyday parking. The owner from Kanagawa Prefecture previously used a Toyota FJ Cruiser for seven years and switched to the Marco Polo for family trips.

Annex RV has unveiled the Liberty 52SPi motorhome based on a Toyota Camroad chassis. It measures 5.20 m long, 2.07 m wide and 2.88 m high. It can carry eight people and sleep five. Power comes from a 3.0-litre 144 hp diesel with automatic transmission and optional all-wheel drive. The interior includes a kitchen with two gas burners, sink and 85-litre fridge, a bathroom with shower and cassette toilet, and underfloor heating. Electrical equipment comprises up to 9.6 kWh batteries, a 3,000 W inverter and 420 W solar panels. In Japan, prices start at 15.96 million yen (around 89,000 euros).

Bodyline, an aftermarket parts brand for the Nissan Caravan, has unveiled the second-generation Light Camper 2. The camper is designed for users who want to carry large items and motorcycles while maintaining living space. It features two side awnings: one for a relaxation area, the other as a sheltered pit for a motorcycle. Inside, a foldable bed kit with height adjustment and multiple storage solutions are installed. Chassis upgrades include stabilizers and shock absorbers with 40-way adjustability.

Ooedo Onsen Monogatari will begin opening official motorhome parks at its hotel parking lots from September 2026. The rate starts at 3,500 yen per night per vehicle, with garbage collection and 24-hour staff on site. Guests can use the hotels' hot springs and buffet restaurants, the latter by advance reservation. Seven locations will open, from Miyagi Prefecture to Wakayama Prefecture.
