Newmar
Newmar will unpack new models, upgrades and features across its many lines for 2026. Notably, the 2026 Freedom Aire breaks new ground for Newmar with a nimble compact Class C coach.
Riding on a Mercedes-Benz 4500 Sprinter chassis coach, the convertible layout adapts to the day from having morning coffee at the dinette to sleeping on a king-size Murphy bed in a floorplan that includes theater seating to further maximize every inch. Off-grid time can be maximized with two 120-watt flexible, roof-mounted solar panels that are 20% more efficient in shade, and RVers can take advantage of more campgrounds that offer 30-amp service.
“It’s perfect for couples downsizing from larger coaches or adventure-seekers entering the luxury RV lifestyle. This coach delivers a balance of maneuverability and refinement,” Brand Manager Nicole Hardy says. “You’ll feel the difference our signature 16-inch, on-center wall construction makes, maintaining comfortable temperatures and reducing road noise in ways other methods simply cannot match. Through and through, the Freedom Aire is Newmar quality in a more accessible package.”
Newmar will also introduce its all-new Summit Aire, a luxury Super C offering that’s built on a Freightliner Cascadia foundation, powered by a Detroit DD16 with a 600-hp engine and equipped with a 30,000-pound towing capacity. With the company’s Artisan Series Custom Paint Process option, each Summit Aire will feature a one-time exterior design that’s created for each customer and then permanently retired to ensure uniqueness, Hardy says.
The Super C line was further enhanced with the Supreme Aire moving to the Cascadia chassis, which features a 525-hp single-axle on 38- to 41-foot models with a 20K hitch, and a 600-hp, tandem-axle with 30K hitch on the 43- to 45-foot models. The 45-foot Supreme Aire model also features the Artisan Series Custom Paint Process option (also available for the Essex, London Aire and King Aire, as well as the already mentioned Supreme Aire) and a 30,000-pound towing capacity.
Hardy notes that the King Aire has received a life cycle interior change with the introduction of two design expressions, Regal and Refined, allowing the coach to reflect individual styles. “The Refined Expression is a sophisticated take on quiet luxury and is available in Castleton, Stafford, Kingston and Brentwood decor selections. The Regal Expression offers more dramatic opulence and is available in Abilene, Wickham, Kensington and Miramar decor selections.”
New options are highlighted by the Newmar App, which helps monitor coaches with the ability to view all cameras when connected to Wi-Fi, including 360-degree internal and doorbell.
New standard features include ATC control panels to replace Silverleaf, LED lights under slideouts that are now standard on new Aires and contemporary woven material that replaces carpet in slide rooms. New cabinet colors will be introduced, including Chestnut for Ventana, Dutch Star, New Aire, Mountain Aire, London Aire, Essex and King Aire; and Cove for Bay Star, Bay Star Sport, Northern Star Grand Star and Super Star.

Winnebago
For 2026, Winnebago says it is focusing on strategic product expansion and further innovation and differentiation.
The company will be introducing a new Class C motorhome, which will launch four floorplans, including two all-new layouts. It has been designed for simplicity, reliability and customer-requested features such as a “best-in-class kitchen, gear garage and enhanced utility systems,” Winnebago officials say.
Key lines are also receiving model refreshes. The company’s Solis, Travato NPF, Revel, View/Navion and Ekko models will see interior upgrades, new features and expanded options that align with feedback from customer and market trends.
As part of the updates to specific models, the View and Navion 24D will now include Winnebago Connect, upgraded lithium power systems and Mercedes-Benz safety tech, enhancing off-grid offerings. The Revel Sport is being introduced as “a simplified, essentials-focused alternative with new styling and practical updates,” company officials say. The Revel 44EC will also see new upgrades, including new grille designs, a High Trail exterior and upgraded mattresses across multiple models, which the company says will elevate the customer experience.
At Open House this year, Winnebago will be displaying at the Elcona Country Club, located at 56784 County Road 21 in Bristol, Indiana, as it has in previous years. Winnebago noted there will be directional signs pointing to the display.
