Caravan

Berg shook up the camper scene when it introduced the CX6, a neat squaredrop that expands out in every direction to create a huge base camp for 6 people. Now it's packaged that same shell into a 3-/4-person camper sized perfectly for a family.

The all-new 2026 Goldfields Escape Pod camper brings together a virtually indestructible off-road build with a fully loaded living space that multiplies its footprint upon parking, mellowing hot, unwelcoming terrain into comfortable base camp.

The most egg-shaped of all the egg campers, the Barefoot Caravan has been wowing RVers with its shapely fiberglass for over a decade. Prices have risen quickly during that time, but now Barefoot offers the Bothy as a lighter, cheaper entry model.

One of the more out-there concepts from CMT 2026, the Wingcube is a unique style of trailerable camping pod. It folds up into a slim cube that tows comfortably on narrow roads, then more than triples its packed size into an indoor/outdoor base camp.

One of the smoothest hunks of sleep-in fiberglass you'll see this year, the Awaken Morningstar looks to "wake up" an age of higher quality US Midwest-built campers. The trailer's robust dual-hulled build aims to eliminate rotting and leaking.

Bowlus' all-new Frontier Edition takes the brand's most powerful trailer to new aesthetic heights, warming up the interior of the riveted-aluminum fuselage with a rustic cabin inspired by the ranches and pioneer homesteads of the American West.

The Trailpod camping trailer flips the calendar back to a simpler time when the off-road teardrop was a small, ageless and affordable gateway to global adventure. But it's more than meets the eye, concealing a modern, zero-wood build.

Dethleffs' new C.Fold concept caravan was developed specifically for the latest vehicles, particularly electric cars and smaller autos. It tucks down low during driving before lifting at camp with the swipe of a smartphone.

The PHEV powertrain is a natural solution for motorhomes, but it could be an equally viable solution for trailers. Evotrex makes that case with the PG5 travel trailer, a livable power plant that develops its own electricity for camp life and travel.

A year ago, AC Future showed its sleek and massively expandable eTH motorhome. This year, it's sliding its tech behind a tow vehicle with the equally impressive THt, a towable smart home developed with one of the world's most famous design houses.

From self-driving smart trailers to on- and off-road explorers that bulge out in every direction to maximize living space, some truly jaw-dropping and inspiring camper vans, travel trailers, large motorhomes and expedition trucks emerged in 2025.

2025 brought us some truly wondrous, often oddball tiny camping creations that included extra-petite inflatable tow-pods, self-powered rooftop A-frame micro-cabins, and platform-agnostic camper capsules built to roam from automobile to trailer.
