The change announced by the Ministry of Finance in the way of handling and settling road tolls for cars over 3.5 tons encountered some technical obstacles. The entire electronics industry is currently facing the problem of the lack of availability of semiconductors and components for the production of the so-called "Boxes". The new e-Toll system based on the application provided by the operator was to be launched in June, and the lack of operating devices poses a real threat to the legislator's plans.

Unfortunately, we received information that the Poznań Motor Show planned for June this year was postponed to a later date. This decision is of course dictated by the uncertain epidemiological situation in Poland. Organizing such a large event requires many months of preparations, so it's hard to have reservations about this decision. The organizer has not yet officially announced the new date of the next edition of the fair. For now, consultations with representatives of the automotive industry are ongoing.

This place was especially popular with foreign tourists visiting Bielsko-Biała. The new tenant of the area turned out to be the owner of the restaurant operating on the campsite for several years. The land was leased after presenting the offer, which was more favorable for the company than the offer presented by the current tenant - said Grzegorz Jania, commercial director at ZIAD.

On January 16, 2021, the historic merger of Fiat-Chrysler ( FCA ) and Peugeot-Citroen ( PSA ) took place. As a result of this merger, the fourth largest automotive concern will be created, which is to be called Stellantis . The merger will have a clear impact on the camper van base vehicle market. Although FCA and PSA have a joint production, they have so far competed in terms of distribution. Stellantis will achieve a market share of 75% after the merger of Fiat with Citroen and Peugeot. As expected, this state of affairs, despite fluctuations, should not translate into data for 2020.

From now on, in Lower Saxony, overnight stays in motorhomes and other vehicles in public spaces for tourism purposes are prohibited. Campsites and parking spaces subject to a long-term rental agreement are excluded from the ban. German internet users and caravanning enthusiasts, embraced in their everyday life by a wave of far-reaching restrictions, do not mince words before Christmas. Returning to "normality" is a spontaneously articulated desire, just like in our case. However, there will also be words of support for the legislator and criticism for those who disregard the restrictions. The prevailing comments try to emphasize the seriousness of the situation, the new strains of the virus and the important aspect of showing social solidarity. Giving up the luxury of using a motorhome would be one of the manifestations of such solidarity.

A few days ago, during a press conference, the HYMER brand presented the result of several years of research and development in the field of "connectivity". The complete, integrated peripheral management system for MasterLine models based on the Mercedes Sprinter has been lightened. At first glance, this is just another "app" that there are plenty of on the market, but appearances can be deceiving. There are plenty of smartphone applications to control the on-board electronics, but it is difficult to enjoy such functionality if each device requires a separate program, configuration and connection.
