I'm excited to see this coach at Hershey next week. I hope there are some others surprising us with some B-vans on the Promaster chassis.
There are a ton of advantages to basing a camper van on this chassis, but there are also some challenges. Some items must go above the floor, and some below, so it impacts layout. I like what PW has done here - I suspect the water tank is above the floor (a-la Travato), but it's probably underneath that large wardrobe cabinet behind the driver's seat.
I also suspect the black and grey tanks are ahead of the rear axle, so I'm wondering where they route the discharge to. The generator and lp tanks are most likely behind the rear axle, as there is not any room forward for the generator.
If they've fitted larger tanks, then they are going to hang down a few inches, thus needing the skirting. Safari is using a black running board type of skirting on their van, which I think is a better look.
