Current offers from Knaus
Living, interior design & equipment
Both models, the SPORT&FUN 480 QL and the SPORT&FUN 480 QL BLACK SELECTION, offer a multifunctional room layout with a modern color concept. The large L-shaped bench seat ensures a high level of seating comfort and can be converted into an additional double bed in just a few simple steps. The BLACK SELECTION stands out with its exclusive furniture fittings in CPL design and the special GREY STRIPES upholstery, which gives the interior a particularly elegant look.
Kitchen
The longitudinal kitchen of both models is well thought out. A high-quality 3-burner hob, a 142-liter refrigerator with freezer compartment and automatic energy selection (AES) make the kitchen suitable for everyday use. Particularly practical: an optional larder pull-out offers well-organized storage space. The BLACK SELECTION also offers a 230 V socket in the kitchen for flexible use of electrical appliances.
Bathroom
The compact bathroom in the SPORT&FUN 480 QL offers all the important amenities. An optional pull-out shower tray can be added to increase comfort on the go. The integrated splash guard with air hose ensures that the shower curtain does not stick to the body - a small but clever solution. The BLACK SELECTION does not differ from the standard version in this respect.
Storage space
Both models score with generous storage space solutions. The 92 cm wide rear door makes it particularly easy to load and unload bulky equipment. There is also a large storage compartment flap in the front (100 x 120 cm, left). A clever special feature is the cube stool under the refrigerator, which serves as a seat and storage space at the same time. The BLACK SELECTION uses a darkened exterior graphic and black KNAUS emblems to emphasize the sporty design.
Note: For detailed information, we recommend consulting the official technical data sheets from Weinsberg or authorized dealers.

The matching compensating cushion ensures a flat lying surface and increases sleeping comfort. The SPORT&FUN 480 QL BLACK SELECTION also has a practical side stool that can be used as a seat or storage solution.
Comfort
The EvoPore HRC mattress (fixed beds only), which offers optimum pressure distribution and a pleasant lying sensation, ensures restful sleep. The BLACK SELECTION also features the exclusive GREY STRIPES special upholstery, which combines modern style with high-quality sitting and lying comfort.
Flexibility
Thanks to the clever design, the storage space under the bed remains accessible at all times without having to sacrifice sleeping comfort. The convertible seating group in both models ensures an individual room layout so that the interior can be flexibly adapted.
