What’s inside

Electric platform

Built on Chevrolet’s BrightDrop 600 with the Max Range battery, reported at roughly 172–173 kWh.

Separate house power

Lithium house batteries power the living space apart from the vehicle’s drive battery.

Rooftop solar

A 1,000-watt roof-mounted solar array ships as standard.

Lightweight interior

Built with Genesis Products: G-Strong PET foam core replaces OSB in the ceiling, floor and walls. Lisocore cabinet panels are reported 47% lighter than traditional plywood.

Room to move

Coachmen kept BrightDrop’s boxy profile and sliding front doors to maximize interior volume.

Rear access

The rear window lifts, and a swing-open lower door sits beneath it.
