Alpine has new standard features designed for durability and performance.

The 2026 Reign models are introducing enhancements driven by direct customer feedback. Among the updates, a power tongue jack has been added for easier hitching and unhitching, along with several convenient bolt-on features designed to enhance everyday usability.

Sprinter offers countertop extensions in most floorplans for extra prep and serving space. Outside kitchens designed for convenient outdoor cooking and entertaining, lighted Keystone brand bath mirrors for enhanced functionality and style, and Suburban tankless on-demand water heaters have been added.

For new paint options, Alpine will offer the Avalanche paint option, and the Sprinter 30th Year Anniversary full-body paint option marks three decades as Keystone’s first brand.

“We’re optimistic about 2026 and see a clear opportunity to capitalize on refreshed demand and lower inventories,” says Kasey Findley, customer experience manager. “Our team is expanding the Arcadia offering and leaning into customer-driven features that deliver real value. With the brand revamp and a sharpened focus on the full-size segment, we’re positioned to meet the moment with smart design, attainable price points and features that matter most to today’s RVers.”

Findley says Keystone is seeing a strong shift toward full-body paint over traditional graphics — especially in higher-content, premium models. Paint drives curb appeal and helps dealers close sales, Findley says. Additionally, large L-shaped sofas continue to be in high demand, offering the comfort and seating space customers expect. Raptor is “leaning in” to both trends across the 2026 lineup, she adds.

“Looking ahead to late 2025 and 2026, we’re optimistic,” Findley says. “The steady demand for affordable RVs is building momentum, setting the stage for solid growth and opportunities.


Airstream

Airstream will feature one new model for 2026 — the Frank Lloyd Wright Usonian Limited Edition 28RB. Just 200 units will be built. Inspired by Wright’s Usonian principles, the trailer’s interior features modular and convertible spaces. The main living area transforms from a dinette to a desk to a secondary sleeping space, with storable chairs and a stool. The rear sleeping area includes twin beds that convert to a king-size bed at the push of a button.

Airstream is offering an array of new standard features on many

models, such as an X-package for the Basecamp with rock and solar guards, 3-inch lift kick and an off-road tire upgrade. For the Globetrotter, International, Flying Cloud and Trade Wind, a bathroom window is added in all 25FB and 27FB units where blinds will be installed.

Trade Wind’s 23FB GVWR increases to 6,500 pounds from 6,300. For the Globetrotter and Classic, a security camera is built into the main door light fixture plus ASA Electronics. The Classic has a sofa redesign in the 28RB and 30RB units, with a dual motor for smooth operation, a true lay flat into bed configuration, redesigned closeout behind the sofa, sofa arm redesign with power awning access and a switch locator redesign for a cleaner look.

For travel trailers, new air-conditioning vents have been added on all ducted units to increase flow rate and shut-off function. This can be upgraded on older units. The Bambi Classic has a better back-up camera that will move to below the rear awning, where the view is the same, but the look is more aesthetically pleasing and protected from overhead brush.

On the Atlas and Interstates, a new custom grille and Advanced Power System is now standard, which is a single-fuel source (diesel or gas only, no LP) designed to provide more electrical power and support off-grid travel.

Atlas features structural improvements to the body and fiberglass for a stronger, more durable exterior. It offers custom LED taillights that match the Mercedes Sprinter taillights visually and operationally. There are new vinyl mats for exterior compartments that are easy to clean, and new cameras and sensors system with a dual rearview camera, 720p resolution and blind spot cameras that operate down to 0.1 LUX ultra-low light.

Interstate 24GT and 24GL now have a rear-wheel drive chassis that can seat up to nine passengers as well as AWD that allows seven passengers. It has Triple Nickel Chrome Wheels (OE Wheelworks, same as on Atlas).

The Interstate 19 and 19X have a new heating and hot water system with improved burner, fuel pump and exterior exhaust/cutout. Interstate 19X decor transitions to Scarlet Peak and is transitioning to KO3 Tires.

Rangeline has a 3,000-watt inverter with all outlets inverted. An additional converter configuration provides a backup to the 12-volt system while on shore power. There is an additional Firefly screen next to the cellphone holder. An easy-access bathroom fan switches on the pantry and a new inverter monitoring and control screen is over the sliding doorway. Upgraded black leather captain’s chairs are standard.

All touring coaches have an updated exterior with new badging, along with exterior to interior ethernet (Cat6A) prewiring for easy internet or Starlink connection. The coaches also come with a new two-year (no mileage) Airstream Limited Warranty.

Success stories and eye-catchers this year include the Basecamp Xe addition to the “Adventure Product” lineup alongside Trade Wind. The Frank Lloyd Wright Usonian Limited Edition features powered twin beds that convert to an RV king. Airstream also describes Interstate 19 as its most popular touring coach unit because it’s easy to drive, fits into a parking spot, features a full wet bath, galley kitchen, appliances and a large bed.

Customers want more power and the ability to go off-grid longer, Airstream says. The company is capitalizing on that by adding a completely inverted electric-first feature set to its Basecamp travel trailer.

Airstream considers itself to be well-positioned to navigate economic uncertainty during the remainder of 2025 and into 2026. Demand for premium travel remains steady. The brand sees growth opportunities through targeted innovation, compelling storytelling and continued partnership within its strong dealer network.
