Choosing the right chassis for your motorhome

Choosing the right chassis

Here at Pilote, you can choose between the FIAT CCS chassis and the AL-KO AMC chassis . These two types are among the most reliable and highest quality chassis on the market. To help you choose the right chassis, consider these two criteria:

– Driving comfort: each chassis provides you with a different solution for optimum road-holding and stability.

– Chassis height: a low chassis offers you the possibility of a dual floor.

Your chassis does not sway in the rear. Your storage area can therefore hold a lot of weight thanks to its sturdy structure.
