dodge promaster shower plumbing

Strongly considering getting an LB dodge promaster to get the wider body and intermediate length. I want a shower which is a very tight fit in the shorter Mercedes sprinter.

The dodge promaster has a much lower cargo bed due to front wheel drive. This is good for van step in and driving stability but bad for ground clearance. The Winnebago Travato is based on the dodge promaster van platform and uses an electric shower drain pump with a horizontal trap to avoid the typical vertical P-trap plumbing in homes.

With the dodge promaster the ground clearance of everything needs to be accounted for. Was quite surprised that Winnebago went for something complex as an electric pump.

The question is how does sportsmobile plumb the shower drains, what is the ground clearance needed and will the dodge promaster use the standard plumbing ?

The new Travato 59k that is just showing up at dealers has gravity dump grey and black tanks. Also . Fresh water tank and pipes are all inside the van. Generator and batteries are the same height or low as rear axle.
