Have you ever hesitated to drive down a narrow country lane or into a busy city center with your motorhome? You’re not alone. The width of many coachbuilt models can be intimidating. That’s why slimline motorhomes like the Etrusco V 6.8 SCF are becoming so popular. They offer the space and insulation of a motorhome in a more agile package.
↔️ How Slim Is a ‘Slimline’ Motorhome?
The Etrusco V 6.8 SCF measures just 2.14m wide. This is about 18cm narrower than Etrusco’s standard coachbuilts, making it much easier to navigate tight spots. Yet, thanks to its flat sides, you still get a surprising amount of interior space and superior insulation compared to a van conversion. It’s built on the popular Ford Transit chassis, known for its comfortable ride and car-like driving position.
✨ What’s the Big Deal About the Lounge and Layout?
What makes this particular model special is its lounge. Instead of the typical half-dinette, it features a more open and comfortable face-to-face lounge with side sofas. This creates a much more relaxed and spacious feeling up front. The rest of the layout is equally practical, with twin single beds at the rear situated over a large garage. Plus, with a standard payload of over 800kg, you’ll have no trouble carrying all your gear. It’s a perfect blend of comfort and convenience.
