• Flexible sleeping without constant rearranging: The fixed transverse bed provides a permanent rear sleeping area, while the drop-down bed can be lowered when needed, meaning there’s no daily reshuffling of cushions or tables just to get set up for the night.

• A-class layout creates a bright, open living space: The full dinette sits within a wide, panoramic cab area, giving the interior a more spacious feel and a clear separation between driving and living zones.

• Carthago build quality carries long-term appeal: The brand has a strong reputation for solid construction and thoughtful detailing, which tends to translate into a durable, well-finished interior that stands up well to regular touring.

• Interior styling reflects its era: While well built, the cabinetry finishes, upholstery tones, and dashboard design are more in keeping with earlier A-class models, so it won’t have the sharper, more contemporary look of newer generations.

• Running costs can be higher than average: As a premium A-class, parts, servicing, and specialist maintenance may come at a greater cost than more mainstream motorhomes, particularly when it comes to integrated body components.

Carthago has a following for a reason — the build quality is obvious when you step inside. The Chic C-Line 4.2 gives you that solid, well-insulated A-class feel, along with a layout that works for couples most of the time but still handles guests comfortably. It’s the sort of motorhome people often come looking for specifically, rather than just stumbling across.
