Beauer X-Van: How the Expanding Sleeper Pod Adds Space to a Camper Van

The Beauer X-Van is a removable rear slide-out module intended to add a separate bed to a van. Here are the reported dimensions, equipment and fitment checks—and what remains unconfirmed today.

The Beauer X-Van is a removable, rail-mounted module designed to turn the rear cargo area of a van into a dedicated sleeping space. At camp, the module slides rearward to make room for a bed; when retracted or removed, the van can return to everyday use. Published dimensions, vehicle examples and prices are historical reports, not confirmed current specifications or offers.

How the X-Van slide-out works

New Atlas described the X-Van in January 2020 as an electrically actuated module fitted in a van’s rear cargo area and secured to floor rails. At camp, it extends rearward by about 1 metre. Side panels are opened manually to widen the sleeping area, while the mattress folds as the module retracts. The module can also be removed, according to launch-era coverage. New Atlas’s 2020 report described the Peugeot Traveller as the first official conversion.

Promobil’s May 2022 account said the bed could be set up without folding or removing the second seating row. That makes the layout different from a simple bed platform that occupies the passenger area: the X-Van’s purpose is to create a separate sleeping zone behind the seats. Promobil’s 2022 report also described mattress sections folding upright when the module is retracted.

Reported dimensions and bed size

Promobil reported these measurements for an X-Van in 2022. They are useful for understanding the concept, but should not be treated as current specifications for every version.

Item Reported figure Context
Module dimensions 1.10 × 1.20 × 1.20 m Promobil, May 2022
Module weight 130 kg Promobil, May 2022; version-specific applicability is unconfirmed
Bed dimensions 1.90 m long × 1.10 m wide Promobil, May 2022
Optional bed-width extension Up to 1.40 m around the head-to-hip area Promobil, May 2022; not the full bed length

The module’s reported 130 kg mass matters when calculating remaining payload. Confirm the weight of the exact configuration, then account for passengers, luggage, water and any fitted equipment against the vehicle’s permitted payload.

Vehicle fitment: examples are not an approval list

Launch coverage showed the module in a Peugeot Traveller. A French specialist report later described adaptations for Mercedes Vito, Renault Trafic, Volkswagen Transporter and Fiat Doblo variants. A specialist conversion page also presents a Renault Trafic 3 in L1 or L2 form. These are reported examples, not a verified current fitment chart, and do not establish compatibility across model years, trims or interior layouts. See Fourgonlesite’s Fiat Doblo report and L’Atelier du Van’s Renault Trafic configuration.

For a useful quote, ask the seller to document the vehicle-specific fitment, the module and rail configuration, installed weight, bed dimensions, included equipment, removal requirements, warranty and delivery or installation location. The deciding question is not just whether the module fits inside the van: it is whether the fitted system leaves enough payload and delivers the bed size and seating arrangement you need.
