The largest mobile home is known, which resembles a small hotel or cottage. There is the most expensive and cheapest mobile home in the world. There are also completely miniature houses.
The largest mobile home
Life on the road can be absolutely comfortable when it comes to an iron horse from Anderson Mobile Estates. It is considered not only the largest in the world, but also one of the most luxury houses on wheels.The trailer contains a luxury hotel on two floors with two bathrooms, a kitchen and a conference room. In addition, it is equipped with seven plasma TVs and the latest electronics. Separately, I must say about the stunning interior and beautiful furniture.
A family of three or four people will feel completely free in this car, without experiencing any inconvenience. This type of mobile home can compete with many luxury houses luxury and cool hotels.
It should be noted that getting into an accident while driving the world’s largest motorhome is extremely difficult, because the driver’s visibility is three hundred and sixty degrees. This was made possible by installing a state-of-the-art camera on the outside.
The largest mobile home weighs thirty tons and costs two million dollars. It is known that the owner of the house is Ashton Kutcher.
The cheapest mobile home
Not everyone travels by car; there are also those who prefer a bicycle as a means of transport. It turns out that there is also a bicycle house on wheels. Initially, it was assumed that the cyclist would tow such a house as a storage trailer, and in parking lots it would serve as a place for him to rest. The main requirements for such a design are lightness, a low center of gravity and a small silhouette. However, it was not easy for cyclists to pedal with this trailer, which is why they abandoned such “convenience” for traveling. 
Artist Kevin Kear revived the concept of a bicycle home in his product, abandoning the towable design. His tricycle looks like a pedicab, with a living room instead of passengers. His invention was called the Camper bike. Despite the fact that the living space is limited, you can enter through side door. The ceiling height is sufficient for a person to stand at full height in the house.
Inside there is a bed, shelves for things, a kitchenette. During parking, it is possible to connect the house to an energy saving system. This house on wheels is reduced in size just enough so that you can comfortably spend the night in it. The camper bike house is recognized as the cheapest motor home.
The smallest house on wheels
The design of the world's smallest mobile home was proposed by Designer Cornelius Comanns. He named his invention Bufalino. Such a house can satisfy all the requirements of a single traveler. It is equipped with a work space, a bed, a kitchen with a stove and sink, a clothes dryer and a wardrobe. The advantages of Bufalino are good maneuverability and economical fuel consumption. 
Another miniature mobile home was created by the British Environmental Air Transport Association. The name of such a mobile home is Qtvan. It was intended to be used in the event of problems at airports, as temporary housing for those involved in repair work. In addition, such a house can be perfectly used when traveling by those for whom comfort is not of paramount importance. QTvan is equipped with a single bed, TV, electric kettle, radio and book shelf. The mini-house can be attached to an electric scooter, motorcycle and even a bicycle. The world's smallest caravan is two meters long and seventy-five centimeters wide. The estimated cost of the QTvan is six thousand one hundred and twenty euros. The considerable price is due to the fact that the trailer has central heating, a trunk, a game console, satellite TV, and is equipped with a panel with solar cells.
The most expensive mobile home
Today, the most expensive mobile home in the world is recognized as “”, which is the brainchild of the “Marchi Mobile” company. She valued her masterpiece at three million dollars. 
When developing this concept, the designers took into account and used not only the most modern achievements of the automotive industry, but also the features of auto, air and yacht sports. The mansion on wheels is equipped with a stairway like a business jet, an open area like the roof of a motor yacht and the exhaust system of a sports car.
Interior extra expensive house on wheels is also very extravagant: minimalism and modern forms are combined with ancient and classical elements design. The developer of this project is designer Luigi Colani.
The weight of the car is twenty tons, the height is four meters and eleven centimeters, and the length is twelve meters. For convenience, the mobile home is divided into several sections; various modifications are possible.
Under the hood of the Element Palazzo there are five hundred horsepower. The motorhome is capable of reaching speeds of up to one hundred and fifty kilometers per hour. Thanks to its aerodynamic design, it saves fuel significantly. Only five such houses are produced per year. Well, the most expensive passenger car, according to the website, was bought in 2008 for 15.7 million pounds sterling.

Russia is taking only the first tentative steps in caravanning. Several years ago, the largest manufacturer of motorhomes and caravans in Europe, Hymer, even opened a representative office in Moscow, but later left the Russian market with nothing. This is due to the lack of decent roads and roadside infrastructure. And most importantly, the financial well-being of Russians is far from brilliant, revealed by the laconic phrase “let’s put it off until better times.” After all, buying movable property is sometimes comparable to buying a decent apartment.
It's the same thing abroad!
1. Fabulous. My home is my castle
This statement literally suits a married couple from New Zealand, who personally transformed an unsightly-looking British Bedford truck into a real one. True, when folded, only two towers attached to the rear of the motorhome remind of this. But when in the parking lot they lift the canopy over the roof of the trailer and the superstructure over the cabin, fold out the side walls of the van and unfold the turrets in all their glory, then a medieval fantasy castle appears before your eyes.
The fairytale mobile home is completely autonomous and does not require a power connection. All the energy it needs is generated by solar panels installed on the roof, and to heat the water, in addition to this, gas and heat from a small stove-fireplace are also used, if necessary. Rainwater from the roof flows into special tanks mounted under the truck.
The author of the project and the actual foreman and builder in one person was the father of the family, Justin Sizen, an engineer by training. He thought through literally every little detail. Inside the house there is a living and dining area, a full-size kitchen, because a young family with a small child loves to cook. IN retractable loft located above the cabin cozy bedroom. A tent canopy rising above the roof turns it into a spacious summer terrace with a hammock. Here, at the request of Yola, Justin’s wife, a bathtub was installed - right on outdoors. There is a toilet in the left turret, and a shower in the right one. Any seemingly useless corner or niche is filled with original built-in retractable and rotating cabinets and illuminated shelves, where all the family’s belongings are conveniently and discreetly placed. The need for a mobile home in the Sizen family did not arise by chance. Yola is a circus trapeze artist and is forced to spend most of her time on tour.
2. Cheerful. The pub that is always with you
A group of Irish enthusiasts led by John Walsh decided to combine their love of folk traditions with business and in 2014 converted a well-worn 30-year-old caravan into a village pub. It took the team four months of work and 20 thousand euros to do everything.
Externally, the drinking establishment on wheels exactly repeats a neatly whitewashed village house from the beginning of the last century with a roof made of natural slate, a chimney, a door made of two halves, and a fireplace. With a length of 4.2 m and a width of 2.1 m, it comfortably accommodates ten people at a time. Everything inside is also decorated like the good old days. To emphasize the spirit of the times and give the interior a vintage look, specially aged Irish oak and pine were used for finishing.
The original working pub on wheels immediately caught the fancy of everyone in the area. After years of neglect, the revived fun van is now in great demand. Literally not knowing a minute of peace, he travels around the cities and towns of Ireland as a welcome guest at holidays, parties and corporate events. For this, it is equipped with everything necessary: glasses, glasses, shakers, refrigerators, a beverage dispensing system, and a music system.
The only thing tenants should worry about is food and drinks of their choice. The newlyweds especially liked the mobile zucchini, becoming a real highlight of the wedding festivities. True, the cost of renting it is steep, amounting to 750 euros on weekdays, and 1,500 euros on weekends. And this does not take into account the cost of transportation costs. But the joy and fun that it brings to people overshadows this small drawback. John Walsh's business has gone so well that Shebeen now specializes in professionally converting caravans into bespoke pubs on wheels. Those interested can choose from three options for interior decoration: houses covered with thatch, natural slate or galvanized iron. The maximum price for your own mobile zucchini reaches 39,950 euros.
3. Fantastic. The house that never was
Adherents of the shocking steampunk style (a direction of science fiction that models a civilization that has perfectly mastered the mechanics and technology of steam engines) are big fans of shocking the public with strange art objects, stylizing them to the era of the British Queen Victoria (1837–1901). They claim to take inspiration for their work from the works of Jules Verne and H.G. Wells. Therefore, members of the steampunk movement from the Hibernian Academy of Unnatural Sciences (California) built their already world-famous mobile home called Neverwas Haul in 2006 precisely in the Victorian spirit. The self-propelled three-story structure, 7.3 m long, 3.7 m wide and 7.3 m high, looks like it came out of an old black and white photograph, is installed on the base of a five-wheel trailer and is made from 75% used materials and equipment. One problem: for passionate admirers of steam, the entire structure is still driven by a diesel engine. But the authors of the project dream of eventually replacing it with a real steam engine. Inside the “house that never was,” only objects and mechanisms from the second half of the 19th century are placed: original or rebuilt. Unusual vehicle with elaborate turrets, steam pipes, balconies, a veranda-bridge, stairs, loudspeakers from the last century, travels to various festivals, shows and fairs. In addition, anyone can rent it for weddings, dinner parties and other special events.
4. Gypsy. Roam in comfort
Gypsy Caravan by George Crawford
Gypsy carts drawn by horses served as homes for their owners for hundreds of years. Their romantic appearance, embodying the nomadic spirit, continues to inspire some modern car vagabonds. For example, the American George Crawford, an archaeologist by profession, with his own hands built a mobile home on the chassis of a cargo trailer, stylized as a gypsy wagon. To do this, he needed a carriage board, plywood, metal profiles, fasteners, fittings, and, most importantly, several months of hard work. The whole process of work is he. Inside small room with two windows there is everything necessary for the life of two or three people: a bunk bed with a pull-out table, a stove, numerous lockers and shelves. The house turned out to be warm and practical. George has already tested its strength on long trips several times. Although outwardly his brainchild, of course, looks rather ascetic when compared with the bright, even somewhat arrogant creations of the Dutchman Kees Hoekstra. A graphic designer and illustrator from Amsterdam created the company Roulottes Gypsy Caravans in 1992 to restore, design and build gypsy caravans equipped with all the benefits of civilization. Since then, eighty of his masterpieces self made went their separate ways different countries the world, and the number of people willing to buy them does not dry out.
5. Curious. From heaven to earth
Could the creators of the Douglas DC-3 have suspected how dramatically the fate of one of these aircraft could change? In 1947, while flying over the northern territory of Australia, a plane crash occurred due to an electrical fire. Thanks to the skill of the pilot, all passengers on board survived. But the plane itself was less fortunate - the aircraft, written off as scrap, was sent to Brisbane.A Douglas DC-3-bodied aircraft camper and its current owner, Werner Kroll
There, at the Douglas scrapyard, the inventive Bill Chater, a simple ship pipefitter, took a liking. In 1950, a craftsman in his workshop installed a cut-off airplane fuselage on a trailer cargo chassis, turning it into a stylish camper. For many years, Bill traveled in his airplane along the roads of Australia, surprising everyone around him. After the death of the owner, the unique mobile home, already in a rather shabby state, was inherited by his friend Werner Kroll. In 1993, Werner decided to return the car to its original appearance and took on its restoration, spending two whole years on it. Now the ennobled van, in which even a pianola has appeared, is again plowing the expanses of the Green Continent, causing general delight.
6. Floating. Amphibious trailer
The German company Sealander from the city of Kiel has developed an unusual floating trailer. In its normal state, this house on wheels performs the traditional role of a resting place on the road. But if you attach a small electric outboard motor to it and launch it, it immediately turns into a mini-boat or, as its creators proudly call it, a yacht for boat trips and fishing. The draft of the ultra-light, waterproof hull in the water is only 38 cm. Anyone over 16 years old can operate the motorboat. The total length of the Sealander floating trailer is 4.06 m, width is 1.68 m and height is 1.89 m. The maximum weight is 550 kg. Maximum load on water is 410 kg. There are six seats on two benches. After transformation, they turn into a single large sleeping space. Interestingly, to legally operate an amphibious trailer according to EU regulations, it must be registered twice, first as a caravan trailer weighing up to 750 kg, and then as a sports boat.
The base price of a waterfowl motorhome starts from 15,118 euros. Well, then, as the Germans love, everything - right down to colored curtains and a set of bath towels - is offered for a fee. If we add here such necessary options as a stove, sink, heater, refrigerator, audio system, toilet, shower and additional electrical equipment, then the price easily exceeds the 20 thousand euro mark. Although this, of course, is not so much compared to the cost of the luxurious American Terra Wind amphibious camper from Cool Amphibious Manufacturers International LLC, the price of which is off the charts for $1.2 million.
7. Miniature. Two-wheeled baby
Londoner Yannick Reed has created the world's smallest caravan - the QTvan. His achievement was officially recorded in the 60th anniversary edition of the Guinness Book of Records for 2015. The length of the residential trailer is 2.39 m, width - 0.79 m, and height - 1.53 m. Weighing 131.1 kg, the two-wheeled baby is towed by a four-wheeled electric scooter. Yannick has already logged many kilometers testing his mobile home, and claims that it can easily endure the rigors of the road if necessary. Despite the tiny size of the mini caravan, it incredibly fits a full-size single bed, 19-inch TV, bookshelves, bar, kettle and set of kitchen utensils. And all this costs £5,500. Additional options also include solar panels for installation on the roof of a house, satellite dish, game console, heating system and an external luggage rack.
8. Gigantic. Monster on wheels
But the world's largest caravan was recorded in an earlier edition of the Guinness Book of Records, released in 1993. It was commissioned by Sheikh Hamad bin Hamdan al Nahyan, a member of the UAE's ruling royal family. The length of the five-story desert ship with a balcony and an open terrace under the roof, built by the Speed House Group of Companies (UAE), reaches 20 m, the width and height are 12 m.Tiny Home on Wheels - Designed to look like a prairie-style cabin popular with honeymooners.

For living and traveling, a car-mobile home
This motorhome is a hybrid of a trailer and a car. Trailers from Teardrop have long been popular due to their compactness, lightness and attractive design. Therefore, it is not surprising that the successful model was taken as the basis for a hybrid house with a micro-area.
The building on wheels has many features that save energy and improve the indoor climate.
Second floor windows open for ventilation
The area of the van, which the owner nicknamed “tiny drops”, is 14 m2, which is considered the average size among its analogues. The builders themselves comment that their creation consists entirely of heat-saving technologies that use both rain and sun to organize a unique microclimate inside the house.
The outer coating is non-toxic, and vehicle combustion emissions are neutralized. Therefore, people who are inside the van breathe even when moving clean air. Visitors to the nationwide Tiny Drop tour who travel in this van can get an up-close look at the interior details. The room is divided into zones, one is a working and dining room, the other is a kitchen and a place to relax.

Description of all types of motorhomes.
Trailed
For this motorhome model, the connecting link is the trailer. This option involves stationary rest and minimal road movement. Thanks to the wide model range, it is possible to choose a suitable trailer motorhome that has the required dimensions and functionality.
On the picture compact house on trailed wheels.
Trailer tent
It is a tent that self-assembly. The trailer has no insulation, so it is suitable for recreation only in the warm season. When assembled, the dimensions of the structure are no more than 1 meter.
The trailer contains sleeping places, and other auxiliary areas are located under the awning. A motorhome trailer-tent is sometimes also equipped with a stove, sink or heater.
The advantages of such a mobile home are that it is mobile, different small in size and low price unlike other campers.
The disadvantages include the small capacity of no more than 4 people and the need to constantly unfold and assemble the awning in case of a stop.
The photo shows a motorhome with a large tent.
Travel trailer
Mobile housing equipped with a toilet, shower, heater, necessary furniture and appliances. Another name is a trailer-dacha.
Advantages of a residential trailer: the structure can be detached at any time and continue traveling by car. A caravan trailer has a low price and provides an opportunity to save money on motel accommodation.
The disadvantages are the presence of poor maneuverability, as well as low speed from 80 to 90 kilometers per hour. You can't stay in it while driving on the road, and many cities in Europe don't allow trailers.
Motorhome or camper
The model is in the form of a hybrid, combining housing and a vehicle. From the outside, such a motorhome looks like an ordinary bus or minivan, with an entire apartment set up inside. Even small varieties of campers are equipped with a TV, satellite dish, bicycle racks and more.
When driving, all communications operate using the car battery, and when parked - from external electrical sources.
Alcove motorhomes
TO distinctive features mobile homes include a superstructure located above the driver's cabin. This alcove is supposed to accommodate an additional double bed. The motorhome can accommodate up to seven people.
In the manufacture of a residential module with walls, floor and roof, panels are used that help improve thermal insulation. In addition, such a living module is wider compared to a standard minibus, which allows you to increase the internal space of the alcove motorhome.
The advantage of this model is that it can differ in a large number of planning solutions. Having a cozy and warm double bed that can be covered with curtains is also an advantage.
Disadvantages: The motorhome has a distinctive appearance, poor maneuverability and a high height, which will make it difficult to drive in some places.
The photo shows an example of an alcove-type mobile home with a canopy.
Integrated houses
Belongs to premium and business class campers. Externally, it looks like a bus with a driver’s cab and an individually configured body part. Since the car’s cabin is integrated with the living module, the interior space increases. The capacity of such a motorhome is from 4 to 8 people.
For the production of semi-integrated models, a serial chassis is used, on which the living compartment is mounted. The most popular brands of motorhomes are Ford, Fiat, Renault, Mercedes and many others.
Pros: due to the side and panoramic windshields, there is a good view, sufficient capacity, the higher the speed, the lower the fuel costs.
Residential minivans
They are a residential minibus that has a high roof. Due to their compactness, they are considered the most highly maneuverable of all types of mobile homes.
A Kastenvagen van assumes the presence of a living compartment with the necessary equipment and furniture items. Due to lack of space, a bathroom is rarely built in. Basically, a minivan only seats two people. Kastenvagen can act as a regular minivan in Everyday life, and turn into a comfortable camper for the weekend.
Advantages: good maneuverability, possibility of daily use as a standard car.
Disadvantages: little living space, small capacity, not enough high level thermal insulation.
