Americans aren't into cycling like the Euro community, and our land/roads are so much more roomy (making hauling/parking large trailers not such a problem); it is doubtful it would have the same market here that it would over there, but I'd still love to see one.

I haven’t seen the floorplan for the longer prototype motorhome with tandem rear axles, but the existing production 26-footer with single axle does have Twin/King beds like Axis/Vegas 24.1, except they are elevated to provide space for garage. That’s very typical of Euro motorhomes.
I agree that in larger size, this motorhome probably wouldn’t do well in US market. Don’t know about prototype, but others are built on unique and advanced front wheel drive chassis that wouldn’t be able to tow what Americans often do. For shorter motorhomes not requiring a toad, this chassis has much to offer.
Also, while it’s low profile for better handling and fuel economy, and wider than most Euro motorhomes for added space, it doesn’t have a slide or two. For many in US, a slideless floorplan is a deal breaker.
