If you think Class A motorhomes all look alike, you owe yourself a look at the surprising new Horizon. The ultra-contemporary 2018 diesel coach won this year’s “RV of the Year” award from RV Business magazine. Along with the small 4×4 capable Class B Winnebago Revel, the Horizon also won RV PRO magazine’s “Best of Show” award at the RV industry’s national trade show in Louisville.
“We had this dream to create a million-dollar look in something much more affordable,” says Mike Happe, CEO of Winnebago. “It looks and feels more like a Manhattan condo than a traditional diesel RV.”
Starting at $385,214, the Horizon is no small investment. But it sets a new bar for the high-end luxury category with a significantly lower price than other offerings.
After you’re struck by the elegant, clean lines of the 41’ to 43’ exterior (without the traditional “swoops”), the Horizon’s light interior greets you with a sophisticated vibe. A lot of design touches create this impression of soft vibrancy:
- High-gloss laminate built-ins with LED backlit translucent panels
- Open floor plan with roomy meal prep, kitchen, and a dining area you can rearrange to fit the occasion
- Plenty of stainless steel, porcelain tile, and luxurious Villa furnishings
- Grooved countertop for self-drying dishes
- 50” HD TV that pops up directly across from the couch for easier viewing
- Full galley with residential French-door refrigerator and Induction cooktop
- Double-sink master bath and roomy shower
- 50” HDTV, satellite system ready, with soundbar and Blu-ray™ Home Theater System
- Ample, creative storage areas that “disappear” into the walls
