    Drop-Down Bed Motorhomes

    Last updated: 04 September 2026Reviewed by RoamWorthy Editorial Team

    A premium island bed motorhome on a Ford automatic chassis.

    The Chausson 797 Ultimate Line is a 7.49m low-profile motorhome designed for 4 to 5 berths. Built on a Ford Transit chassis with an automatic gearbox, it features a face-to-face SmartLounge and a height-adjustable rear island bed. With a 3500kg MTPLM and a 415kg payload, it combines a high standard specification, including a solar panel and awning, with Grade 3 thermal insulation for year-round use.

    • Ford Transit chassis with automatic transmission as standard equipment.
    • SmartLounge layout featuring face-to-face benches for social space.
    • Height-adjustable rear island bed to customise garage storage volume.
    • Electric drop-down double bed positioned over the lounge area.
    • Grade 3 insulation and IRP structure for thermal performance.

    Worth knowing: The 7.49m length may require careful navigation on smaller UK pitches. The Ford cab height differs from Al-Ko chassis alternatives.

    Buying a Chausson 797 Ultimate Line

    Who it suits

    • • Tourists seeking a social layout with the face-to-face SmartLounge.
    • • Drivers who prefer the Ford Transit platform and automatic transmission.
    • • Year-round travellers requiring Grade 3 insulation and IRP construction.

    Reasons to consider it

    • • High standard specification including a solar panel and awning.
    • • Flexible storage options provided by the adjustable island bed.
    • • Generous 415kg payload for a coachbuilt motorhome in this class.

    What to check

    • • Test the height-adjustment mechanism of the rear island bed.
    • • Check the operation of the electric drop-down bed over the lounge.
    • • Inspect the Technibox for ease of access to external utilities.
    • • Verify the total weight and payload if adding heavy optional accessories.

    Worth knowing: Confirm the specific berth count for your intended use as it ranges from 4 to 5. Verify the exact equipment list as specifications can vary by model year and trim.

    Compare the Chausson 797 Ultimate Line with similar models

    ModelBerthsMaximum weightLengthTypical price
    Chausson 797 Ultimate Line53500 kg7.49 m£68,000 to £85,000
    Swift Voyager 485 155BHP53500 kg7.54 m£68,000 to £78,000
    Auto-Trail F Line F7253500 kg7.32 m£58,000 to £76,000

    The Chausson 797 Ultimate Line sits in the 68000 to 85000 price bracket, offering a specific blend of Ford-based driving dynamics and a social face-to-face lounge. While alternatives like the Swift Voyager 485 provide a similar 3500kg MTPLM at a slightly longer 7.54m, the Chausson focuses on internal flexibility with its height-adjustable island bed. The choice between these models often rests on the preference for the Ford automatic powertrain versus the specific layout configurations and lengths offered by competitors like the Auto-Trail F Line.

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

    Ownership and maintenance considerations

    • Utilise the Technibox for centralised management of your external utilities.
    • Monitor the 415kg payload when loading the garage via the adjustable bed system.
    • Ensure the 7.49m length is compatible with your intended storage or driveway space.

    Common mistakes to avoid

    • • Overlooking the 2.92m height when planning routes under low bridges.
    • • Assuming all 797 models have identical berth counts without checking the specific build.

    Worth knowing: Payload calculations should account for all passengers and water levels.
