NEW for 2026! Chausson 798 Ultimate Line 84k motorhome review. Tour, specs and competitors.

The Chausson 798 Ultimate Line is a 7.36 m low-profile coachbuilt motorhome with a rear island bed, central washroom and large face-to-face lounge, designed for buyers who want a full touring layout with a permanent bedroom, spacious living area and four berths within a vehicle under 7.5 m. It is typically aimed at touring couples who prefer a fixed island bed but want additional sleeping space for guests, as well as buyers moving from campervans to a larger motorhome with more living space and storage. Direct competitors include island-bed coachbuilt motorhomes of similar length and price, particularly the Benimar Mileo 294, Roller Team Zefiro 696, Swift Escape 694, McLouis Fusion 373, Carado T447 and Elddis Autoquest 194. These vehicles compete directly because they share similar length, central island bed layouts, large rear bedrooms and four-berth touring capability, although they differ in chassis choice, interior layout and storage design. This video examines the interior layout, island-bed bedroom, washroom arrangement, lounge seating, kitchen design and full technical specifications of the Chausson 798 Ultimate Line, and compares it with similar coachbuilt motorhomes in the same segment.
