    French Bed (Corner Bed) Motorhomes

    Last updated: 03 August 2026Reviewed by RoamWorthy Editorial Team

    A versatile six-berth family motorhome on a 3500kg chassis.

    The Elddis Autoquest 196 is a 7.33m motorhome designed for large families, featuring a six-berth layout that includes a rear lounge and a drop-down double bed. Built on a Peugeot chassis, it maintains a 3500kg MTPLM, making it accessible to drivers with a standard Category B licence. Its 450kg payload and dual lounge areas provide a practical balance of living space and sleeping accommodation for up to six people.

    • Six berth capacity with six travel seats.
    • Rear lounge and front dinette layout.
    • Electric drop-down double bed over the front dinette.
    • Built on a Peugeot chassis.
    • MTPLM of 3500kg allows driving on a standard UK licence.

    Worth knowing: Payload is limited to 450kg, which must accommodate all passengers and equipment. The 7.33m length may require careful navigation in restricted spaces.

    Buying an Elddis Autoquest 196

    Who it suits

    • • Large families requiring six dedicated berths and travel seats.
    • • Drivers who need a high-capacity motorhome that stays within the 3500kg weight limit.
    • • Tourers who prefer separate daytime living zones for children and adults.

    Reasons to consider it

    • • It offers a high berth-to-weight ratio, providing six sleeping spots on a standard licence.
    • • The dual-lounge layout creates flexible living spaces for extended trips.
    • • The drop-down bed preserves floor space during the day.

    What to check

    • • Confirm the specific payload for the model year, as 450kg must cover all six passengers and their gear.
    • • Test the operation of the drop-down bed mechanism over the front dinette.
    • • Verify the service history of the Peugeot chassis.
    • • Inspect the condition of the rear lounge upholstery and conversion mechanism.

    Worth knowing: Fuel efficiency may be lower than smaller, lighter motorhome models. Older versions of this model may not include the latest interior technology features.

    Compare the Elddis Autoquest 196 with similar models

    ModelBerthsMaximum weightLengthTypical price
    Elddis Autoquest 19663500 kg7.33 m£45,000 to £70,000
    Elddis Majestic63500 kg7.41 m£38,000 to £85,000
    Auto-Trail Imala 73063500 kg7.25 m£45,000 to £80,000

    The Elddis Autoquest 196 is a competitive option in the six-berth market, particularly for those restricted to a 3500kg licence. While alternatives like the Adria Coral or Swift Escape 674 offer similar berth counts on the same weight chassis, the Autoquest 196 distinguishes itself with its specific 7.33m length and 450kg payload. It balances internal volume with a manageable MTPLM, though buyers should compare the specific lounge configurations and kitchen equipment levels across these similar models.

    Worth knowing: Specifications and prices can vary by model year, trim and optional equipment.

    Ownership and Maintenance

    • Utilise the 450kg payload carefully by distributing heavy items over the axles.
    • Regularly check the seals around the washroom and kitchen facilities.
    • Monitor the Peugeot chassis service intervals to maintain mechanical reliability.

    Common mistakes to avoid

    • • Exceeding the 450kg payload by carrying six adults and full water tanks simultaneously.
    • • Forgetting to secure the drop-down bed area before transit.

    Worth knowing: Manoeuvring a 7.33m vehicle requires awareness of rear swing and height clearances.
