What is a Class B Motorhome?

Class B motorhomes are the smallest of the three motorhome classes of RVs. They are built on a van chassis from Dodge, Ford and Mercedes Benz. One of the main perks of this RV type is the ease of driving, parking and exploring off-the-beaten path locales, as it is smaller and nimbler than its motorhome counterparts. Of course, the smaller space means giving up the amenities, privacy and storage of larger RVs, but some Class Bs, such as the Grech, can offer some of the most important amenities, such as a private bathroom and shower and get creative with storage space to help eliminate concerns.

Introducing the Strada 

MSRP starting at $200,490

The Strada has a gross vehicle weight rating of 11,030 pounds and is built on a Mercedes Benz Sprinter 3500 170-inch EXT chassis. It is 24-feet, 2-inches long and can sleep up to two people. The tank capacities are 26 gallons of freshwater, 27 gallons of gray and 13 gallons of black.

Floor Plans

The Grech Strada RV comes in two floorplans, the Lounge Plan and the Tour Plan. They are similar in layout with a few minor changes such as a closet and extended counter space.
