In relation to the width threads at the moment-
The obvious answer to me for a bigger floor area is slideouts, they do not increase the physical size and might even allow narrower and shorter vans.
Weight would increase although for comparable floor areas (shorter or narrower van) it might not be that different.
You could have manually operated ones or ones that operate from the hookup to a running car or mains supply.
The Americans do it (not just RVs but caravans which they call trailer RVs) why aren't we doing it?
