New motorhome parking area opens in Larmor-Plage (Morbihan)

Electric motorhome with fold-out solar panels: up to 80 km range per day
French company Vanroad Évasion has unveiled a prototype electric motorhome based on the Toyota Proace Electric with a 75 kWh battery. Five fold-out solar panels on the roof provide a peak power of 2.5 kW. Under favorable conditions, the system can recover up to 80 km of range per day, but requires long stops in direct sunlight. During a test trip to Morocco, a less sunny day yielded about 13 kWh, corresponding to roughly 65 km. The motorhome is fully electric: induction hob, heating and refrigerator operate without gas. An additional 10 kWh battery serves as a buffer and can add about 35 km of range. The project shows how electric RVs can reduce reliance on charging infrastructure, provided travelers adopt a slow pace.
Treasure hunt for motorhomes continues: prize value exceeds 2000 euros

Due to rising gold prices, the prize value has exceeded 2000 euros. Only members of the federation for at least six months can participate. A new clue is released each month, and the coins are hidden in one of 80 village-étapes.
