Motorhome recommendations

  • Low solar output (~0.6 kWh) — reduce power use or connect to shore power.
  • Strong gusts (59 km/h) — do not open the awning, retract it if already out.
  • High condensation risk — ventilate before sleep and leave a small gap in the roof vent.

High off-road capability makes Delica D5 the best minivan for car camping and family camping

An owner of a 2018 Mitsubishi Delica D5 (D-Power Package, 7 seats, 4WD, 2.3L diesel) shared their experience. The vehicle performs well on rough roads and during long trips. For a family of four on a 2–3 day camping trip, there is enough storage inside and on the roof (2–3 boxes). Real fuel consumption is 8 km/L.
