    Front Lounge with Drop-Down Bed Motorhomes

    Last updated: 13 August 2026Reviewed by RoamWorthy Editorial Team

    What makes the Benimar Tessoro T486 a practical choice for touring?

    The Benimar Tessoro T486 is a 6.99m motorhome that balances a spacious front lounge with a large rear washroom and garage. It utilizes an electric drop-down bed to maximize daytime living space and is built on a Ford Transit chassis with wood-free construction.

    • Electric drop-down double bed positioned over the front lounge area.
    • Large rear washroom featuring a separate walk-in shower cubicle.
    • Heated exterior garage with dual access doors for storage.
    • Built on a Ford Transit chassis with a 2.0L EcoBlue engine.
    • 99.9% wood-free ISB body construction for durability.

    Worth knowing: The lounge can feel enclosed when the main bed is stored in its high position. Fixed seating is limited if hosting more than four visitors. The 3500kg MTPLM requires drivers to verify their licence permissions.

    Buying a Benimar Tessoro T486: What you need to know

    Who it suits

    • • Couples or small families who prioritise a large washroom and significant garage storage.
    • • Drivers who prefer the car-like handling of the Ford Transit 2.0L EcoBlue chassis.
    • • Year-round tourers requiring Grade 3 insulation and heated storage areas.

    Reasons to consider it

    • • Offers a generous 450kg payload within a 3500kg MTPLM.
    • • The sub-7m length (6.99m) provides a balance between living space and manoeuvrability.
    • • Modern safety features including cruise control are standard on the Ford cab.

    What to check

    • • Test the operation of the electric drop-down bed and the telescopic dining table.
    • • Inspect the dual access doors of the heated garage for seal integrity.
    • • Confirm the presence of the oven and grill within the high-specification kitchen.

    Worth knowing: Check the specific engine output as the 170bhp version is an optional upgrade. Verify the exact payload for your specific unit as optional equipment will reduce the 450kg allowance.

    Compare the Benimar Tessoro T486 with similar models

    ModelBerthsMaximum weightLengthTypical price
    Benimar Tessoro T48643500 kg6.99 m£48,000 to £78,000
    Benimar Tessoro T48743500 kg6.99 m£45,000 to £78,000
    Benimar Primero P28643500 kg6.99 m£52,000 to £72,000

    The Benimar Tessoro T486 occupies a specific niche for those who value a large rear washroom and garage over fixed rear beds. While the T487 and Primero P286 offer similar 6.99m footprints and 3500kg MTPLM ratings, the T486 focuses on an open-plan lounge feel during the day. Choosing between these models often depends on whether the user prefers the T486's specific garage configuration or the different internal storage layouts found in its siblings.

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

    Ownership and maintenance tips for the T486

    • Utilise the multi-positional telescopic table to adjust the lounge layout for dining or travel.
    • Make use of the dual access garage doors to organise heavy outdoor furniture and gear.
    • Regularly check the seals on the wood-free ISB body construction as part of annual servicing.

    Common mistakes to avoid

    • • Assuming all models have the 170bhp engine; many standard versions use the base 2.0L EcoBlue.
    • • Overloading the garage beyond the remaining payload after passengers and water are accounted for.

    Worth knowing: The 2.89m height requires awareness of low bridges and height-restricted car parks. Payload must be managed carefully if carrying heavy gear in the large rear garage.
