Comfortable and flexible: The new sleeping bench S2 from Aguti for leisure vehicles

Light and versatile, like a Swiss Army knife. This is how Aguti, part of the AL-KO Vehicle Technology Group since 2019, describes its latest product. With the new 2-person sleeping bench “S2” for camper vans and multi-purpose vans, the company offers B2B customers a new seating or sleeping system that is available with either two single backrests or one double backrest. The intelligent folding kinematics of the backrest and seat offer not only a high degree of seating comfort but also a simple folding mechanism which turns the seat into a comfortable lounger. The new sleeping bench is already integrated into numerous multi-purpose vehicles, including selected Mercedes-Benz V Class, Citroen Space Tourer and Opel Zafira Life models. Aguti ensures adaptation to other rail-base systems as well as custom-made products are possible, for example to achieve the perfect fit for a leisure vehicle's existing lounge and storage situation.

A harmonious blend of comfort and flexibility
End customers benefit in many ways from the new Aguti sleeping bench. At 60 kilograms, the system is a lightweight in comparison with other systems in the industry, offering an advantage in terms of the respective leisure vehicle’s fuel consumption. The new system also sets new standards in terms of flexibility. This is because the seat can be moved longitudinally in just a few easy steps and adapts the interior space even more flexibly to the requirements of passengers and their luggage. The backrest allows continuously variable adjustment – and the belt buckles are below the seat. Depending on requirements and vehicle construction, one or two belts can be integrated.

Safety is the top priority
Like all Aguti benches, the S2 is equipped with the patented ASBC system (Aguti Safety Bend Control), which guarantees controlled deformation in the event of a crash. On this basis, all belt frames are firmly connected to the vehicle frame or the rail floor and designed for two persons. They have two integrated three-point safety belts as well as two adjustable headrest mounts, which can be easily removed if necessary. The safety of the little ones on board is also ensured. Isofix points come as standard. The resulting rigid connection between the vehicle and the child seat delivers children to their destination in safety.
