:h It sure doesnt' appear that way to me. i.e. Note the low-slung chrome engine exhaust pipe opening just inches above the ground!

Also:

- The air conditioning appears to be via a central outlet instead of distributed ducts? However the heating may be distributed ducts.

- It looks like there be no, or only very limited, storage under at least one of the two dinette seats? I can't see the lower section of the second dinette seat, however.

- Where's the roof ladder for waxing of the roof, and emergency chaulking and/or various other unexpected repairs while out and about on a trip?

- Wonder what the ceiling height is in that portion of the coach not under the roof bubble?

- Is that a generartor exhaust pipe coming out the rear right under the bed? Probably that isn't good for low-noise napping on a hot afternoon when camping without hookups but needing to run the air conditioner.

- Some folks may prefer double galley sinks for low-water-use when rinsing and washing dishes while camping without hookups.

- Is there a seem all along the roof edge, or is that a rolled-over - and hence leakproof - roof to sidewall edge joint?

- Are those natural wood floors .... or engineered wood floors for superior long term dimensional stability in varying temperatures and humidities?

- I guess that there's a closed dry-sink/dry-toilet and wet-shower back there somewhere?

- What's the tank capacities?

- And .... like others have mentioned .... you better be fully dressed whenever you're in bed so you can get up out of it in the morning without an OOPS moment.

It doesn't strike me as being all that practical for general high-flexibility RV'ing use. I wouldn't take it off-pavement at all, except on very level, firm, and flat .... graded
All that being said, it looks like a very cutesy rig! :)

Lot of errors there P Nichols, yes it does go off road, somewhat better than your terrible E450, The interior is deliberately designed that way as that is what customers want.
air conditioning is ducted, superior engineered floors, yes proper toilet and shower, good roof height, use of composites to prevent leaking. Everything an E450 does not have Yes it can actually go Off Road, as a pavement pounder a lot better than the E450. Remember I have driven an E450 Motorhome and it left a bad impression. The IVECO is much much better as a Motorhome to drive similar to the Sprinter :R
