Island bed and unique dinette in a camper van? Check out the Rapido V64!

Campers stepping inside the new Rapido V64 will need a moment to adjust. The French brand completely turns the traditional camper van layout – dinette on the driver’s side, kitchen opposite – on its head. The two-seater bench is located right next to the sliding doors, which is highly unusual for a camper van!

Dinette by the sliding doors

The cab seats are – of course – swivelling, although the seating area does look slightly different than in a classic camper van layout. Choosing this position for the dinette has several advantages. For instance, sitting on the bench gives you much more of an outdoor feel than when the dinette is on the driver’s side. You also get more natural light and can easily chat with the rest of your camping party sitting under the awning.

The table is hidden under the kitchen worktop and folds out in three sections towards the bench.

Cooking on the other side

The kitchen unit is spacious, featuring a large square sink, a two-burner gas hob, and sizeable drawers. The tall fridge stands to its left.

Wow, a camper van with a queen bed!

The absolute wow factor of the Rapido V64 is down to the queen bed at the rear. You never see that in a camper van! This queen bed is also fully equipped with handy features. For example, the headboards can be adjusted independently of each other. Practical if one person wants to sit up and read in bed in the evening, while the other prefers to go to sleep. Below the bed, there is space for bags or other luggage.

Bathroom with vario wall

In the bathroom, which is also located on the passenger side, Rapido opted for the efficient vario solution. The wall with the washbasin can swing over the toilet, transforming the bathroom into a shower cubicle. Done? Then everything swings back, allowing you to use the round washbasin, the mirror, and the toilet.

Opposite the bathroom, a tall wardrobe has been placed with a mirror on the inside of the wardrobe door.
