The number of campervans owned in Japan also increased by 10,000 units from the previous year to 155,000 units. In addition to the distribution of various types of campervans, the popularity of campervans has been boosted by their diverse uses, including not only as a means of transportation, but also as a new form of leisure, a residence in times of disaster, and as an office for teleworking.

The RV is not only a means of transportation, but also a new type of leisure vehicle, a residence for disasters, and an office for teleworking.

According to the "Japan RV Association Annual Report 2023 (formerly White Paper on Camping Cars)" published by the Japan RV Association (Yokohama, Kanagawa Prefecture), approximately 80% of users enjoy "traveling" in their camping cars after purchasing a camping car. The average trip length is 3 days and 2 nights or longer. Because of the flexibility of time, it is possible to leave right after work on a Friday weekend and spend two nights in a campervan, and it seems that many users are using their campervans for longer trips.

The most attractive thing about a campervan, as perceived by users, is that they can go out without worrying about time. It seems that many people find the freedom to travel in a campervan, without being subject to the time schedules of inns or transportation, very appealing.

Regarding lifestyle changes after purchasing a campervan, more than 70% of all users answered that they are now able to travel without worrying about time. Many users also said that they are now able to take more trips as a couple or to places they could not go before because they can travel more easily now.
