Newly registered leisure vehicles in Europe, 2025

  • The European recreational vehicle market in 2025 is primarily characterised by an accelerated decline in the caravan segment (around –11 per cent)
  • With around 215,000 new registrations, Europe continues to achieve a very high level and the fifth-best result
  • The motor caravan segment remains stable overall but is developing unevenly at country level
  • Significant declines are coming from the DACH region and the United Kingdom, while the Netherlands and Italy are growing
  • 2025 is once again marked by inventory reduction: sales support and production cuts are visibly reducing inventory levels in the trade
  • Germany remains the undisputed number one in Europe, with hardly any deviation from the previous year, followed by France and the United Kingdom
