Paul Antoine's Converted van

THE X550 IS NEITHER A VAN OR A MOTORHOME Chausson invents a new generation of vehicles that combines the agility of the van with the comfort of the profile. Compact on the outside, big on the inside... Not content with displaying dimensions comparable to those of a van (2.10 m wide – 5.99 m long), it is the only narrow profile to skip the permanent bed. The result is an incomparable feeling of interior volume and space for such a small motorhome! With a panoramic cab roof that opens as standard and fuel heating that can be used while driving with programmable digital control, the Chausson X550 is spacious and clever inside, despite its super compact size. The saloon thus offers a face-to-face bench seat, separated from a generous retractable table while the cabin seats swivel. The kitchen unit of the French 'van-camping-car', nesting several 'soft' closing storage spaces, relies on the classic combo two-burner stove (gas) and sink, but also on a 134-litre refrigerator of capacity. The storage of clothes is also not forgotten, with a wardrobe, just like at home! It incorporates a luxury entrance door cabin with central door/cell locking, a panoramic skylight, a door mosquito net or thermal insulation curtains for the cabin bays, the Chausson X550 is equipped at the rear with a corner particularly neat bathroom.
