If it a 2019 Thor Gas motorhome it will have everything prewired and a small (10 amp?) solar controler that I beleive is connected to the battery already. So all you should have to do is add one (or two) 100 watt panels to your system and your ready to go. But you are limited to 10 amp (that I have seen) input of solar.
Any Thor product 2017 or older I dont think has any solar setup.
Some of the high end DP may have had solar installs from factory sooner than 2018 (but Im not lucky enough to see them).
check your facts - I may not be 100% correct but this is what I have seen / read.
I hope this helps.

Yes, this helps. Our coach is a 2017. I’m doing research on future upgrades. I know Harbor Freight has a two panel kit that goes on sale for $150. So maybe this would be an option along with the other needed RV components.
Thanks
