Winnebago Class A with Wheelchair Lift

New article from Car & Driver about the 2019 introduction of the Winnebago RV with Wheel Chair Lift.

Winnebago actually has several with that feature. Two gas and a DP.

Would be interested to know the sales of these.

Newmar VentAna has had one for a number of years now.

Might get a better feel for numbers from the Newmar or Winnie forums.

Glad to see Winnebago offer this option.


They don’t seem to shy away from offering products with low sales potential as much as other large companies; often pursuing niche markets — not that it’s a great way to make a ton of money or become the largest RV manufacturer in the world.

It might not generate a lot of sales...
But it'll generate good-will; by the ton!

Winnebago took it from their Newmar purchase and will put it in their branded rigs. Or they will take the Newmar models and lower quality and rebrand them Winnie. Either way nothing that Winnie dreamed up on their own. The next one will be using Newmar’s emergency exit door concept in the rear bath models.
