The Top 5 Most Popular Class A Diesel RVs Among Shoppers in 2022

Class A Diesel RVs are among the most popular RVs, and for good reason. These powerful luxury coaches offer style, space, and are perfect for full-time RVers. With so many makes, models, styles, features, and specs to choose from, it can be overwhelming. To help you learn more about these motorhomes before you start browsing Class A Diesel RVs for sale near you, RVT took a look at which makes and models of diesel motor coaches generated the most buyer inquiries on our marketplace.

What is a Class A Diesel Motorhome?

Class A Diesel RVs are the largest and strongest of the RV classes, typically up to 45 feet in length. Their engine can be in the front or rear of the motorhome. Rear-engine diesel motorhomes are stronger and quieter because they ‘push’ rather than ‘pull’ the unit, which is why these units are called ‘diesel pushers’. As with Class A gas models, they are built on a commercial bus or truck chassis and offer luxury appointments like washer/dryer units, induction cooktops, spacious sleeping arrangements, multiple slideouts, residential-sized refrigerators, and porcelain tile floors. They are entirely self-contained, allowing passengers to eat, nap, or use the washroom without having to stop. Another benefit is the smoother ride. The panoramic windshield allows a clear, sweeping view of the road. Class A Diesels are more powerful and burn fuel more efficiently than their gasoline-powered cousins, but the fuel is more costly.
