Haval H9 as a home on wheels. A week of living in the car

An owner drove a Haval H9 4,800 km across the Kola Peninsula, using the vehicle as accommodation. Over 87 hours of driving, average fuel consumption was 11.4 L/100 km. Sleeping arrangements involved a self-inflating mattress, and the kitchen was stored in three plastic boxes. A folding table on the tailgate proved the most useful accessory. Drawbacks included the mattress sliding due to the floor slope and the need for a firm slam to close the tailgate.

Experts Reveal Hidden Costs of Motorhome Ownership

Motorhome owners in Russia face recurring expenses for maintenance, repairs, and storage, with vehicles depreciating quickly and renters often causing damage. A basic motorhome costs between 1.5 and 2 million rubles, losing significant value in the first year. Daily rental rates range from 5,000 to 23,000 rubles, eliminating taxes, insurance, and storage costs, but purchase is only justified for long trips. Short-term rentals can yield 20–25% annual returns with a payback period of 3–5 years, but the business requires constant owner involvement and carries high risks.
