The holding tank is for the shower and sink water. In Europe, having a greywater system and a cassette toilet is the norm. This has some advantages, especially in the winterization department, as one can use water/antifreeze for flushing. Another advantage is that the greywater can be dumped down a storm drain (with permission), and the blackwater cassette can be flushed down a bath house toilet.
The composting toilet would be great for boondocking, but for virtually every other task, it isn't fun. Instead of just pulling a valve or yanking a cartridge out, one has to grab a bottle full of #1 and find a proper disposal location for that, then dig out the bucket of #2, toss that, then toss some peat moss in the bucket. Yecchy, dirty work, and has to be done a lot more often.
I would say the composting toilet should be an option, but they should see about a Thetford or Dometic cassette toilet, cut a hole for the hatch, and use that. Even this is still odd to American RV-ers, but the advantage of this design is freedom to do better floorplans without being stuck with only one or two spaces for the black tank, the toilet on top of that, then the bathroom on that. I've seen cassette toilets in UK rigs that have built in ventilation systems so one doesn't even need the blue goo, just dump out, rinse, and shove it back in.
I think what this company has is a version 1.0 rig. They are in a completely new market with (to the US) a completely new chassis. All they need to do is add storage above the rear door pair and put in a cassette toilet, and JMHO, I think they likely have a hit on their hands.
