About the Chausson 798 Anniversary Line

The Chausson 798 Anniversary Line is a sophisticated low-profile motorhome that masterfully blends French design innovation with premium comfort. Built on a powerful Ford Transit chassis with a 170bhp engine upgrade, this special edition model stands out with its 'SmartLounge' configuration. This clever face-to-face seating area creates an incredibly open social space that easily converts into two comfortable travel seats with ISOFIX, providing versatility for both relaxing and touring. The interior is bathed in wraparound LED mood lighting, highlighting the exclusive 'Anniversary' upholstery and cabinetry.

At the rear, the 798 features a dedicated bedroom with a large island bed utilizing Chausson's 'EasyBed' height-adjustment system. This allows owners to maximize the garage space for larger items like e-bikes while still maintaining a comfortable sleeping height. With a separate shower cubicle and a well-appointed kitchen, the layout feels more like a boutique hotel than a traditional motorhome. Whether you are coastal cruising or heading into the highlands, this model offers a seamless blend of luxury and practicality.
