We took a look at the most intriguing tiny RVs we covered throughout 2025, and now it's time for the big boys. Or at least bigger boys. From self-driving smart trailers with auto-dumping waste tanks to on- and off-road explorers that bulge out in every direction possible to maximize living space, some truly jaw-dropping and inspiring camper vans, travel trailers, large motorhomes and expedition trucks emerged in 2025.
Some of these new mobile living vessels, like a fully outfitted Torsus Praetorian off-road motorhome, we've spent years waiting for. Others caught us completely by surprise, most notably the compact but omni-expandable Auriga Explorer. Still, others pushed the boundaries of technology with long-range hybrid power systems, cutting edge interior layouts and self-powered towing setups.
So as we take our first steps into 2026, here's a quick look back at the camping rigs that made the biggest impression in 2025:

October 05, 2025 | C.C. WeissThe new Auriga Explorer camper truck looks almost as fast and ferocious as a Dakar rig. But it's made for slow travel, the kind that sees you link together wandering days with cozy nights in a mobile 4-person hut expanded by pop-top and 3 slide-outs. -
March 27, 2025 | C.C. WeissStoryteller Overland is switching on a new Mode, building a camper van for the whole family. The company leaps right past the common four-berth pop-up camper to create a five-sleeper Sprinter as rugged, adventurous and versatile as its smaller vans. -
