| has gloss | eng: :For caravans – mobile homes without a built-in motor vehicle – see travel trailer. A campervan (or camper van), sometimes referred to simply as a camper, and also known as a caravanette, motorhome or motorcaravan, is a self-propelled vehicle that provides both transport and sleeping accommodation. The term mainly describes vans that have been fitted out, often with a coachbuilt body for use as accommodation. In the United States the term "recreational vehicle" (RV) is more common for these vehicles, and in that country they tend to be larger than in Europe and the rest of the world. |
