What base vehicle does the Chausson 640 use?

The Chausson 640 sleeps 4. Note that berths (sleeping capacity) often differs from seatbelts (travel capacity). Always check the specific seatbelt count for legal passenger limits while driving.

About the Chausson 640

The Chausson 640 is a masterclass in modern motorhome design, specifically engineered for those who value an open-plan living feel without the bulk of a larger coachbuilt. Its standout feature is the innovative 'Smart Lounge' which utilises face-to-face sofas to create a vast social area, perfect for entertaining or relaxing after a day of exploration. By eliminating a fixed permanent bed, Chausson has maximised the floor space, making this 6.99-meter motorhome feel significantly more spacious than many of its larger competitors.

Functionality meets luxury at the rear of the vehicle, where a full-width washroom provides a domestic-style experience with a separate walk-in shower and a massive dressing room area. This clever use of space extends to the exterior, with a large, heated garage capable of storing bikes and bulky equipment. Whether you opt for the Ford Transit or Fiat Ducato chassis, the 640 offers a refined driving experience complemented by high-end finishes and Grade 3 insulation for all-season comfort. Discover your next adventure and find your perfect Chausson 640 on RoamWorthy.
