Ember Unveils 2026 Overland Series Upgrades at Overland Expo

Ember Recreational Vehicles will debut its enhanced 2026 Overland Series lineup at Overland Expo PNW in Redmond, Oregon, this weekend.

In partnership with WILDSAM magazine and field guides and dealer partner Big Country RV, Ember will showcase a fully equipped 2026 Overland Series 221MSL at booth A600 — the first public showing of the new model year upgrades.

This announcement comes as Ember strengthens its position as the RV industry’s leader in premium, off-grid-ready, overland-capable travel trailers which feature its exclusive Trailblazer steel chassis including the CURT independent trailing-arm suspension with dual shock absorbers, Tread Lock wheel brake system and built-in VersaCoupler adjustable hitching, as well its patent-pending EmberTrack repositionable bunk/storage/office space system.

Key Highlights of the 2026 Overland Series:

Ember’s popular and versatile MAX SOLAR Package has been made standard equipment for 2026, providing optimum off-grid performance. The package includes:

  • 1,200 watts of rooftop solar (six 200 watt panels)
  • 3,000-watt Victron inverter with Cerbo GX communication center
  • 270Ah deep-cycle Battle Born GameChanger LiFePO4 battery (upgradable to 540Ah)
  • Three Victron Bluetooth MPPT controllers
  • REDARC DC to DC trailer battery charger
  • Integrated PV and cold weather disconnects
  • Side and rooftop solar ports

Ember remains the only towable product line in North America to earn Truma Gold Standard Cold Weather Certification on every model, the company said. Certification is achieved through the standard Truma Combi Comfort Plus 20,400 BTU combination furnace/water heater, use of dual-pane acrylic caravan windows with radiant barrier shades and integrated screens, fully enclosed underbelly with ducted heating, and thermostatically controlled 12-volt tank heaters.

“We’re proud to reveal the new 2026 Overland Series at Overland Expo PNW,” said Chris Barth, Ember co-founder and chief operating officer. “The 221MSL continues to represent the best of what Ember offers: overland capability, flexibility, and a premium ownership experience. The new enhancements — both cosmetic and structural — underscore our commitment to building travel trailers that meet the needs of serious adventure travelers.”
