Es, which have space-saving sliding
toilets, now also boast a new mirror
cabinet above the window and a
small storage compartment in the
upper part of the shower column.
There is also a roof hood available as

In the future, the transition between
the cockpit and the living area will be
designed much more conveniently
thanks to the new and extra-wide
threshold. This will be used in all
models of the Vantana and Optima
series.
