Motor1.com Shines a Spotlight on the Chausson X550

European automotive magazine Motor1.com recently reviewed the new Chausson X550, and writer Christopher Smith called it the “smallest full-featured RV we’ve ever seen.”

We love small camper conversions that deliver big features. We’ve certainly seen a few keepers over the years, from clever DIY van builds to a Nissan Versa with a bed. There are many professional companies that offer smallish camper vans with impressive amenities, but this Fiat-based camper is really a mini-motorhome with all the amenities of a much larger RV.

It’s called the Chausson X550 and even the manufacturer struggles to classify it. Built from a Fiat Ducato, it’s properly small at just over 19 feet (5.9 meters) long and 6.9 feet (2.1 meters) wide. Those stats are common for a modest van conversion, but inside the Chausson X550 there’s room to sleep four people in a fold-out bed and a drop-down bed. There’s also room to entertain five in a large dining area. They will eat well, too, because a full kitchen with a three-burner stove, oven, sink, and a 30.5-gallon (139-liter) refrigerator is ready to whip-up meals.
