Small Class C motorhomes are becoming increasingly popular because they offer more fuel-efficiency, a smaller price tag at the dealership and are easier to drive. However, just because campers are giving up space for the above listed conveniences, they are not giving up features and comfort when they choose a Class C.
Class C motorhomes are built on a sprinter van or truck chassis. They are larger than a Class B camper van but much easier to maneuver than the bus-like Class A motorhome. The larger interior space gives it the ability to offer a master bedroom, bathroom, kitchen, dining/living space and an over cab bunk.
There are several RV manufacturers that build Class C motorhomes, so there is a always a wide variety of floorplans and models available to fulfill every camper's unique needs, lifestyle and budget. But with so many options, it can become overwhelming. We'll break down some of the most popular brands and floorplans to help you figure out the right option for you in this blog post.
