What are the core features of the Pilote 696 U?
The Pilote 696 U is a 6.99 metre low-profile motorhome featuring a rear U-shaped lounge and an electric drop-down bed. Built on a Fiat Ducato or Citroen Jumper chassis, it offers a 3500kg MTPLM and a payload of 485kg. The layout includes a large transverse rear washroom and a gourmet kitchen, catering to between 2 and 4 berths.
- Rear U-shape lounge layout providing 360-degree views.
- Electric drop-down longitudinal bed for sleeping.
- Full-width transverse rear washroom with separate shower.
- Kitchen equipped with a three-burner hob and large fridge-freezer.
- Heated storage locker accessible from both sides.
Worth knowing: External garage space is limited compared to models with fixed beds. Access to the lounge area is restricted when the drop-down bed is in use.
Buying a Pilote 696 U: What you need to know
Who it suits
- • Couples seeking a spacious social area without the length of a larger coachbuilt model.
- • Tourers who prefer a large washroom and separate shower over a fixed permanent bed.
- • Year-round motorhomers requiring high-quality insulation.
Reasons to consider it
- • Exceptional social space for a motorhome under seven metres.
- • Generous kitchen worktop space and storage for extended trips.
- • Extra-wide habitation door for easier entry and exit.
What to check
- • Verify the exact payload for your specific unit, as 485kg can vary with optional equipment.
- • Inspect the heated storage locker to ensure it accommodates your external gear.
- • Test the lounge-to-bed conversion if planning to use all 4 berths.
Worth knowing: Confirm the specific chassis type as both Fiat Ducato and Citroen Jumper options exist. Check the operation of the electric drop-down bed to ensure it meets your accessibility needs.
Compare the Pilote 696 U with similar models
| Model | Berths | Maximum weight | Length | Typical price |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Pilote 696 U | 4 | 3500 kg | 6.99 m | £55,000 to £88,000 |
| Benimar Primero P286 | 4 | 3500 kg | 6.99 m | £52,000 to £72,000 |
| Auto-Trail F Line F68 | 4 | 3500 kg | 6.82 m | £58,000 to £76,000 |
The Pilote 696 U occupies a specific niche in the sub-7-metre market, prioritising a large rear lounge over a fixed bed. While alternatives like the Benimar Primero P286 and Chausson 640 offer similar 6.99 metre lengths and 3500kg MTPLM ratings at lower starting prices, the Pilote distinguishes itself with its U-shaped lounge configuration and high-quality insulation. The choice between these models often rests on whether the buyer prefers the Pilote's social layout or the different interior configurations found in the Auto-Trail F Line or Bailey Adamo.
Worth knowing: Specifications and prices can vary by model year, trim and optional equipment.
Practical ownership of the 696 U
- Utilise the dual-access heated locker for items that require climate-controlled storage.
- Use the 360-degree lounge views to assist with natural lighting and ventilation during summer.
- Check the 3500kg MTPLM against your driving licence requirements using available tools.
Common mistakes to avoid
- • Assuming the garage space is equivalent to fixed-bed models; it is more limited here.
- • Forgetting to clear the lounge area before lowering the electric longitudinal bed.
Worth knowing: The 2.85 metre height requires attention to low bridges and overhanging branches. Payload capacity of 485kg must be managed carefully when carrying four passengers and full water tanks.
Alternatives to the Pilote 696 U
The Primero P286 offers a similar 6.99 metre length and 3500kg MTPLM but with a lower starting price point of 52000 pounds.
Auto-Trail F Line F68The F Line F68 provides a shorter 6.82 metre footprint for those prioritising easier parking while maintaining a 4 berth capacity.
Bailey Adamo 69 4The Adamo 69 4 matches the 3500kg weight limit and 4 berth capacity within a 6.98 metre length.
