The auto market has left Caravan Outfitter with no small van platforms for its mini-campers, so it's made lemonade out of lemons. Its new Sprinter Alpaca looks to offer the small, multifunctional practicality of a mini-camper in a full-size van.

Following the sneak preview of its upcoming residential tower last month, Mercedes-Benz has now fully unveiled the ambitious project, officially revealing what the supertall skyscraper will actually look like.

The original Winnebago Ekko debuted in 2020 as a rugged off-grid breed of Ford Transit adventure RV. Winnebago now grows the Ekko line with a Mercedes variant that promises even more all-terrain capability, more space and a few versatile extras.

Closely related, the Mercedes-Benz C-Class and GLC-Class are based on the same platform. The C sedan is a solid entry option for the luxury brand, while the GLC is similarly designed but in an SUV format. We drove them both.

The hottest trend in automotive design is... architecture, apparently. Mercedes-Benz is the latest vehicle company to get serious about residential construction and is planning a new supertall skyscraper that will be constructed in Dubai.

The Terracamper Tecrawl micro-camper takes advantage of Mercedes' rugged G-Class in offering buyers a small, nimble 4x4 overlanding platform. Its high-efficiency indoor/outdoor amenity set encourages campers to take full advantage of their surrounds.

Chargepoint has begun "large scale deployment" of it new Express Plus Power Link 2000, a DC charging station capable of delivering up to 500 kW – twice as fast as Tesla's V3 Supercharger. The only issue is we only know of one car that can handle it.

Sprinter AWD camper vans have become so common, it takes something extra to make one stand out. Benchmark adds about as much extra as possible. Its Deso camper has SEMA levels of components, Starlink dish compatibility, onboard bike storage and more.

In development since 2020, and on show in prototype form last year at the IAA Transportation expo, the eActros LongHaul has been given a new name, range-tested in Germany, and now revealed in series production form as the eActros 600.

There are now two Mercedes-Benz EQE models. One is a car, the other an SUV. Both are electric and both are great entries into the emerging EV market. We spent some time behind the wheel of the 2024 Mercedes-Benz AMG EQE 600 4Matic and were impressed.

Tonke's Mercedes EQV camper van was among 2022's most impressive electric campers. Now, the Dutch company adds a new version. The EQV Nomad debuts as a versatile all-electric RV with indoor/outdoor induction cooking and mobile office capabilities.

What a difference a couple of letters can make. The EQS is a top-end, well-made sedan that hit the luxury market as a fully-electric offering in 2022. The platform under the EQS entered two more models for the EQ Series of 2022-23. Now we have the EQS SUV.
