Original source: AUTO ZEITUNG

Auto Zeitung magazine has ranked nine semi-integrated motorhomes suitable for families of up to four people. Models including the Ahorn Camp T 690, Benimar Tessoro T425, and Carado T459 offer an alternative to classic overcab motorhomes. A key feature is the use of drop-down beds over the seating area to create additional sleeping spaces. Lengths range from 5.95 m (Etrusco T 5900 FB) to 7.41 m (Carado T459), with prices starting at €62,000.
