Stane, with over 36 years of experience at Adria, knows his stuff. In recent years he has overseen the development of the motorhome range and when it comes to the detail, he’s the “go to person” with a commanding grip on space, design and functionality. Nothing gets past his exacting eye. “Trends come and go and this is often reflected in how layouts are developed and what we at Adria offer” he explains. Many trends originate in how we live at home and the trend to a more open plan kitchen and family room is a strong one across most of Europe. This is hard to replicate within any motorhome but Adria’s solution is an interesting one.

NEW OPEN SALON LAYOUTS
The latest trend in motorhome layouts
“WE TEND TO LIVE AT HOME IN A DIFFERENT WAY THAN IN THE PAST, SO IT’S NO SURPRISE THESE TRENDS FIND THEIR WAY INTO OUR MOST POPULAR MOTORHOMES” STANE BUKOVEC, ADRIA’S MOTORHOME PRODUCT MANAGER COMMENTED WHEN ASKED ABOUT THE NEW LAYOUTS IN THE 2019 SONIC, MATRIX AND CORAL.
New for season 2019 are new models with layout prefix D. The D stands for “double” as in “double sofa” or as Adria name them ‘Open Salon’ layouts. You’ll find them in the Sonic, Matrix and Coral ranges. The new “face to face” layout provides for two sofa groups facing each other across the flexible dinette table and an open plan way of living.
In a typical ‘Open Salon’ layout, the seating configuration gives a flexible set up, one for driving with up-to 4 homologated seats (each with three point seat belts) and one set up for camping, showing the face to face seating arrangement and the added flexibility of the adjustable table.

The effect is more space, easier passage between the driver cabin and lounge and more comfort, especially at meal times. The dinette table is 20% larger (length 750mm x width 840mm) and flips in half for even more flexibility (folded dimensions: length 750mm x width 420mm).
In the Sonic and Matrix, there’s a new side window making the lounge very light, with a more spacious feeling. In the Coral the new layout adds an additional bed, making it suitable to sleep three people comfortably.
In the 2019 Matrix 670 DL for example the seating configuration gives a flexible set up, one for driving with 4 homologated seats with three point seat belts and one for camping, showing the face to face seating arrangement and the added flexibility of the adjustable table.
