Many homes have the hood built into the bottom of a cabinet and the vent pipe goes through the middle. This would help add more storage to this motorhome. And the look is not as important......

That skinny liitle tall space by fridge needs to be a pull out pantry.

I would love to see someone offering a realistic sized solar package to acutely go boondocking and more mini-split air conditioning style systems.

This is actually a Class A that would want to own. I like the power plant and the smaller length. More than enough power on the road and just small enough to fit into most sites. The styling makes it unique. Definitely not big and boxy (clunky?) like other Class A motorhomes. Good work, Coachman. I just hope it will be available in Canada.

Really beautiful motor home. I’d customize it for myself a bit (1) remove the two extra seats under the TV and install a desk /work table with storage drawers beneath (2) drop down to a full size bed and add a large built in closet with cabinets in the bedroom (3) reconfigure the bathroom so the sink doesn’t block the shower. Not sure if this model has a garage, but would be interested to see the exterior storage. Otherwise, I really like it.

It's nice seeing a small unit with features. Just like cars, the smaller you get, it becomes more of a budget minded product. We love smaller vehicles that have the luxury features of the full size products and nobody makes products like that.

Mike is so cool he has to wear sunglasses inside the RV.

Finally! I think you said it best in the video that American manufacturers needed to take some European styles/features and add them to American models. Love the look of this one.

The windshield slope, which I like in some ways (such as for aerodynamics) kills the space for bed, or even the usual storage bins.

Suggestions: Skip the fancy range hood in favor of more cabinet space. Put the microwave up there and a cabinet below where the microwave is. Make the folding bed a recliner bed when the slide is in. Makes it usable for brief stays or adds an extra reading area. (I'm small and could sleep on the flat end with the slide in at rest stops or parking lots while traveling.)🦄You could name this "Unicorn."

Yes, put the microwave up top instead of the fancy hood and vent to the outside.

Love the induction instead of gas. Wish it had a pull out pantry. Do not care for the flip up bed in the master bedroom. Wish you made an RV that did not have slides but was aerodynamic like this one. Perhaps if it had a rear bathroom instead? Also solar and a on-demand hot water heater

At 27 feet overall and on the 178" wheelbase (not the shortest 158"), this will be one of the few motorhome built on the F53 that doesn't need rear frame extensions to support the body.

I love this floorplan. The one change I would make is on the bed. Instead of the folding bed, consider a tilting bed. These have the advantage of being partially usable with the slide in.

Good sized Class A. I agree a diesel could be beneficial. The stove exhaust looks nice but there is wasted storage space around; function over design is better in my estimation. I’m not keen on white on white on white, rather I prefer some color & texture. Like the combined dining & living area. We didn’t get to see outside storage.

This is like Airstream Flying Cloud version. Like the clean look. Keep it simple. No slide. Prefer two twins. Add place where mid size dog can sleep and be out of the way. Have elongated toilet seat.

You know Coachman may be a lower tier brand… but they sure do stay involved and talk things out with you. Staying involved is how you improve and I think coachman is on their way to becoming the Toyota of the RV industry

Delete the hood add cabinets. Deeper bins over the bed. Travel locks on overhead bins. Truma endless hot water. Option for desk under TV We would prefer to sit in the two recliners to watch TV - maybe switch the sofa to be under the TV. I love this unit. Can't wait to see it at a dealer.

I've always loved the Euro style RVs! Not as big and could run it all over America! I would definitely be interested in buying this!!! I'm single, so it will fit!

As an European I would say this is 5% European and 95% american style.

agree. The one thing that european RVs have that special something that uses space differently and efficiently and you dont see it in this. The materials may have a euro style etc but that is the 5%. Other than that it still screams american. Those LED strips are showing up in all the US Rvs. The outside of this makes you think you will walk in and it will be really actually euro and then you sigh and go….nope

Looks very nice, both inside and out, in a footprint just a bit larger than an extended van chassis, yet seems more functional. Very clever. Hope the quality is high and the price reasonable. Looking forward to seeing an actual production model.

Back to back fantastic RV videos! One travel trailer and then this!

Love this rig. Finally, some Euro style and shape but with American comforts. One suggestion. Swap the placement of the couch and theater seats. Put seats with the footrest extension on the passenger side so we can kick back and watch TV. TV is decent spot so even the co-pilot can watch. Otherwise move the TV to the opposite side.

Finally a US made RV that looks classy. I love the European RV's they are sleek and modern looking. This one I could spend some time in. I like the size too and driving it would be easy. I have pulled large horse trailers so I am not afraid of large rigs but I would much prefer one this size that can go almost anywhere. The only thing I don't like is the bed. I would want a tilt top model and NO slide. Or even a twin bed set up. Every thing else Good job Coachmen

I really like this one and they even put a sidesplash to the left of the stove top. Almost nobody remembers to do that.

I think this rv is awesome with the European cabinetry, the galley and bathroom are nice as well as the bedroom. The only thing I’m not sure about is sofa and the seats across from them. It just seems too crowded to me. If someone sat in the chair and put their feet up there wouldn’t be any room to walk through there. Is anyone else seeing this or am I the only one? Thanks for sharing this JD, it’s a great rv, do you know if those will come in a couple different floor plans?

Maybe I miss understood. I thought the salesman said the two seats behind the driver had seatbelts so you could carry 2 more people. I do agree the front living room needs a bit of a change. Maybe a small slide out on the sofa side to make it a little bigger? I do like the look of it. Being able to take it to national and state parks would be wonderful. Thank you

As a UK Class A motorhomer - This is something that I would like to see in US Hire fleets to tempt more Europeans who are nervous of your big rigs to take road trip vacations in The US. I also agree with the comments below that European style "Garage" underbed storage accessible from the outside would be more practical than the slide out. Personally I don't like the transverse strip lights, they look more at home in an office. keep the zoning panels but starlight LEDS would be the dog's doodahs. Oh and the 8-10mpg is rather obscene . Us Europeans like to get 26-30mpg in diesel form (have you seen the price of our fuel?? 😱)

The 7.3L is the best engine I've ever had the pleasure of driving. Coupled with a five speed, that b didn't care what the load was. Up hill, down hill, didn't matter. I really like this set up! Thanks.

The TV is on the wrong side. It should be easy to see from the recliners. And the pantry is so narrow it should be pull out to allow access all the way to the back. And drawer storage for the clothes. Not everything is hanging. The trash can is a nice touch.

Great job introducing this Coach!

This is the first class A I've seen that I'd actually want to own. Really reminds me of the was the Leisure Unity made a complete transformation of the class B+/C segment. This feels bigger than it is, and the multifunction front space is great. Unfortunately, I'm sure it'll be way outside my price range, but if it wasn't, I'd consider it for full time living. If I could change one thing, I'd add washer/dryer prep, and maybe see if you could squeeze a workstation area somewhere. I really liked the design of the Lance 2465 with the owner's suite, but in this case the bathroom takes up part of the owner's suite so I'm not sure that could be done here without stretching the chassis.

Love everything about the Euro RV. The seating and range hood is awesome. I hope they keep the range hood. This is definitely one I would buy. Great job Coachman!

I like this RV. Woukd be nice it it had smaller v6 diesel 3L or 3.5L better fuel economy. O ly concer is for tall drivers, the top of windshield looks low! Also, driver side mirrors look to be in front of drivers seat if seat is all the way back

Find hinges for the pantry and garbage doors that will allow for more than 90 degree swing. Its a small space and i can see the doors tearing the hinges out as a person tries to pass. Also, definitely pull out racks for the pantry!

Recommend adding a living room slide as others have. Then it’s a winner!

This is really a terrific collaboration on Coachman staff &’ developers, part! you guys have knocked this Coachmen Eruo out of the ballpark I really Like the Layout &’ how you guys have nailed it… it really does have a European Look &’ style inside &’ out! if I’am able to find one when my legal issues are settled Coachmen Euro, &’ I are going to do some traveling…. congratulations 🎉 Coachmen developers…

Mrs and I like this RV as a potential replacement to our Winnie Solis 59PX. Hoping the Euro trend continues, I'd love to see a rear garage space for two mountain bikes and would gladly give up kitchen and bath space for this feature. Also, we think the bump out is ok, but we'd rather have something true Euro style, no bumpout. Keep up the vision !

Personally i mostly like the layout of this class a. I would only change placement of tv. It really reminds of Canadian leisure class b. The only thing i didn't care for on the leisure class b was the length. This class a gives you the extra length and goodies without being too large. Excided it would fit in state and national parks. Thank you

The LTV is a class C. Some call it a B+ I agree I like the longer length of the Euro and the slide out.

One thing they could really work on is making a larger outside storage compartment for chairs, folding table etc. In addition have a color coded stock trailer hitch trunk that looks like it was made for this one model only, It would be a great answer to storage.

no best in show sticker on this one? of the 2 videos I've seen on this unit, neither showed any of the exterior storage, which is concerning since it doesn't look like much from what I can tell in the vids. That being said, this is still very intriguing and close to the top of my list.

Beautiful.

We are retiring in about a year and this will be our first purchase. We have gone in an older 40' and found that to be big for our needs and find this 27 to maybe slightly larger euro offering will suit us better. I have 2 2020 7.3 Super Dutys and one has 1 155k and my personal truck has 62k...both been flawless and I am happy to see a gasser being used. Looking forward to see the finish product and pricing.

Love this design and the focus upon being smaller and unique.

Love the walk around bed but hate the slide out. Can you create a twin bed layout or Murphy bed and leave out the slide? Look at what Leisure Travel has done in their B+ designs - very innovative.

Nice!

I have a 1991 Itasca Windcruiser. The exterior of this Coachmen looks like an evaluation of my RV. The interior, however, is a complete departure from most Class A US interior designs. I am not a fan of the twisty locks on the exterior. Thanks for another great video!

Beautiful coach! LOVE the size and would definitely consider something like this vs. Class C especially w/towing capacity here. ? boondocking capability and would love to see more details!

This RV is going to Leisure Time RV’s a run for its money!

Could do with a drop down bed over the cab, then have two dedicated sleeping areas. Other than that nailed it, not sure the huge V8 is very European though.

Nice size. I can see the Big Class A buyers are aging away. The is perfectly sized for the people looking for more room that the class b and not ready for the size or look of the cutaway class c. Hoping to see this become the class e for "Europe" Thank you for sharing and have a great day.

Way cool. Deff beats the crap out of any class RV too me. Love it has gas engine as well

Neat concept, looks like some competition for the Thor Vegas & Axis.

It looks exactly like our public transport vehicles known as “Matatus” 😊 except it’s missing the flashing LED lights and 7+ TV screens.

Love to see more twin bed options. but I have always been a big fan of the Euro caravans. Also like to see more Euro travel trailers. Great job on this unit!

wow very nice one

Going smaller and making inside bigger you guys nailed this one its perfect , i could live in it easy 😊 need to put the steering wheel on other side for me please , Australia 🇦🇺 👍

Watch a lot of US reviews, first time I’ve seen one I would actually want. Our new German Cathargo has incredible lighting and curved cupboards and lockers, so modern and contemporary. A lot of the US ones look like my granny’s cabinetry if that makes sense. Can see a lot of customers loving this.

Get rid of the range hood and put the microwave there. The two belted seats need to go and put more cabinets there.

What took you so long Coachmen! Looks great! This is just the start!

Finally someone is catching up and getting why the european market is light years ahead , Its been a long time coming. We need to build motorhomes that have style and function and have the quality to back it up. Lets be real people want there moneys worth when investing there lifes savings on a home on wheels. As a tour manager for rock bands i have travelled on almost every brand of motor homes and tour buses over the last 30 years. i was appalled how the quality of the product that was used hinges, brackets, wood joinery etc. I remember the first time i walked into a Country coach and was so blown away how beautiful the attention to detail was. Manufactures did not see the Sprinter custom van market potential and now its booming and now everyone even Tiffin who is great is taking notice. My 2 cents worth.

I.n love with this unit❤

Great coach overall

You need to add drawers in one of the hanging storage. Storage space over the driver and pilot should have doors.

The only thing I would have liked to see in this one was an overhead drop down sleeping area over the front seats. That way you can sleep up to 6 in it.

Welcome back to smaller class A's! These look reasonable vs those monster rigs.

I like that design but we have nothing like that in Australia 😢

Nice

Outstanding! Would like to offer ONE suggestion, and that's for a model that would have the bedroom with an oversize single/full mattress and a work desk with file cabinet/drawers. Don't need that massive king mattress.

I do believe you and Matt Foxcroft are following each other!

Who cares...euro / American, this thing is damn functional for its class size. Want a 45 ft class A bus...go ahead, if you have the bucks. BTW, 5his one has a (very large) Ford V8. You can have it serviced or repaired at any Ford dealership or repair shop in the world

A slide out extension on the lagoon table would be great to make it longer, so more than 2 people can use the table since you already have it designed for four seating.

Do like it. Would like to see a rear twin bed option if possible.

Reminds me of the GMC Series from the 1970 with 2023 upgrades. I am restoring a 1977 Eleganza.

It would be nice if you see drop-down beds in front and maybe a bigger driver screen with side view security cameras for driving and security when at parks...

It would be nice if US manufactured motor homes all came with radiant heat, instead of the higher priced versions. That would be nice. I like the fact it has only 1 slide.

Make the chairs in left side swivel forward for travel mode!

Personally I like this - I'm not looking at class A's but this wouldn't be bad. I wish it had a diesel option (for reliability/economy and the general ease a diesel has with towing/hauling) and the range hood may look cool but it's a waste of potential storage space. Even keeping the hood and wrapping a cabinet around it would be an improvement.

I would switch the recliner style chairs with the couch

Those 2 chairs behind the drivers seat really need to have arm rests added. The colors are beautiful inside.

Finally a motorhome that looks less like something from the 70’s!!! Cute hood but waste of space. Using a microwave vented to the outside would be more efficient. Kitchen cabinets need adjustable shelving and so do the storage ones. We didn’t see enough of the coach itself to make more comments but the proto looks nice.

Similar European choices actually do have five berth and 'garage' Overall, splendid.

Fascinating to see see this . Its a damn good 1st. Attemot at trying to produce a modern more contemporary motoorhome. The interior is a little clumsyi n layout especially the lounge area but its definitely getting there

THIS is what I want to see more of in the mass produced US RV market, innovation and originality that you see in the Euro/Asian market(s). I just don't get why other manufactures keep insisting on using LP when induction cooktops and electric fridge/ heating is available. Something like this would be great for my mrs and I, especially for state/national parks and harvest host stays.

I was expecting so much more in the interior from the looks of the exterior but am really disappointed. It’s nothing like European designed RV. Cheap looking and could be one of their class c’s. Ugh!

The pantry should have a pull out. The tv above the best seating? That is where I would like to sit, not on the sofa. But you can’t see the tv in the best seats. Should have an option in the bedroom for king, queen or twin beds. And I agree about the kitchen vent hood. Storage is so valuable and bending to get a hot casserole dish out of the low microwave is not safe. Think about us older rvers please.

I don’t think the hood vent is worth the sacrifice of storage space. Put the convection/micro there and have more storage. Diesel should be an option. I don’t like the folding bed aspect. For a compact unit I want to be able to use it parked without having to put the slide out. Overall, I hope there’s some competition in this market to see how others can compare!

Very nice to see it made in America. Love that they're moving away from the grandma looking interiors.

I have a 30ft 2004 trek safari. The bed goes up into the ceiling ("electromagic") This RV would have really benefitted from that feature, as it dramatically increases living space.
