    Rear U-Shaped Lounge Motorhomes

    Last updated: 02 August 2026Reviewed by RoamWorthy Editorial Team

    A versatile six-berth motorhome with twin lounges.

    The Elddis Whirlwind GT Evolve 196 is a 7.34m six-berth motorhome designed for large families. Built on a 3500kg chassis, it features a twin-lounge layout, an electric drop-down bed, and six seatbelts. It offers a payload of 555kg and is priced between 58000 and 78500.

    • Six-berth capacity with six dedicated seatbelts for travel safety.
    • Twin-lounge configuration featuring a front dinette and a large rear lounge.
    • Electric drop-down bed to maximise internal living space.
    • Whale Complete Heat system with a quiet night-time setting.
    • Grade III thermal insulation for year-round touring capability.

    Worth knowing: The 7.34m length can make parking in standard spaces difficult. Payload of 555kg may be tight when travelling with six adults and full water tanks. The vehicle can have a top-heavy feel when fully loaded.

    Buying a Whirlwind GT Evolve 196

    Who it suits

    • • Large families requiring six travel seats and six berths.
    • • Groups who prefer separate living areas provided by the twin-lounge layout.
    • • Tourers who plan to use the vehicle in winter, aided by Grade III insulation.

    Reasons to consider it

    • • High occupancy capacity within a 3500kg MTPLM, suitable for standard UK licences.
    • • Enhanced specification over the standard GT range, including premium upholstery.
    • • Flexible sleeping arrangements with the electric drop-down bed.

    What to check

    • • Verify the exact payload remaining after any dealer-fitted accessories.
    • • Test the Whale heating system settings, including the quiet night-time mode.
    • • Inspect the sky-view panoramic rooflight and internal blind for smooth operation.

    Worth knowing: Confirm the specific upholstery and cabinetry finishes as these are exclusive to the Evolve edition. Check the operation of the electric drop-down bed during viewing.

    Compare the Elddis Whirlwind GT Evolve 196 with similar models

    ModelBerthsMaximum weightLengthTypical price
    Elddis Whirlwind GT Evolve 19663500 kg7.34 m£58,000 to £78,500
    Elddis Whirlwind GT 196+ 140BHP Auto63500 kg7.34 m£58,000 to £76,000
    Benimar Mileo 28263500 kg7.39 m£55,000 to £85,000

    The Elddis Whirlwind GT Evolve 196 sits in a competitive six-berth market alongside the Benimar Mileo 282 and Bailey Adamo. While all three share a 3500kg MTPLM, the Elddis is shorter than the Adamo at 7.34m. It offers a higher payload of 555kg compared to some high-occupancy models, though its 7.34m length remains a consideration for parking. The choice between these models often rests on the preference for the Elddis twin-lounge layout versus the slightly different dimensions of its rivals.

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

    Ownership and Maintenance Tips

    • Utilise the under-seat space for heavier items to maintain a lower centre of gravity.
    • Use the Whale heating system's quiet setting at night to reduce noise in the sleeping areas.
    • Check the 2.33m width before navigating narrow coastal or rural roads.

    Common mistakes to avoid

    • • Attempting to park in standard car-sized bays without checking the 7.34m length.
    • • Overloading the overhead lockers, which can contribute to a top-heavy feel.

    Worth knowing: Always monitor the 555kg payload when carrying six passengers.
