Expanding their motorized offering, premium RV manufacturer Airstream reveals new model built on the RAM ProMaster^® 3500

JACKSON CENTER, Ohio, Sept. 13, 2022 /PRNewswire/ -- Airstream, Inc., maker of the iconic "silver bullet" fleet of Airstream travel trailers and best-in-class touring coaches, today announced the introduction of the all-new Rangeline Touring Coach—the latest addition to the brand's lineup of Class B motorhomes. Whether heading out on a long road trip or simply going across town, this 21-foot handcrafted camper van turns road travel into a seamless experience where you relish the journey to and from as much as you do the destination. Simplicity and functionality are built into its design DNA, with all onboard systems powered by the fuel in the gas tank, and an optional pop-top that provides an additional living and sleeping area above the van.

The Airstream Rangeline is the 91-year-old company's first motorized RV built on the RAM ProMaster^® 3500 chassis. Featuring the proven 3.6L Pentastar^® V6 engine with 276 horsepower and a TorqueFlite^® nine-speed automatic transmission, the durable and dependable RAM chassis stands up to frequent use and the rigors of road travel. A high-traction front-wheel-drive system, low floor height for easy loading, and a suite of safety features make it easy for Rangeline owners to focus on the journey ahead.

The comprehensive functionality of the interior enhances the travel experience and outdoor adventures with a thoughtful approach to aesthetics and capabilities complemented by Airstream quality and craftsmanship. And with a length similar to many large pickup trucks, Rangeline has just the right amount of interior living space for families, couples, and pets—all while being easily maneuverable. Four belted positions are spread between two captain's chairs and a two-seat bench. The standard configuration sleeps two on an elevated bed, with ample storage in a "garage" below, while the optional pop-top expands the sleeping capacity to four people.

"We're in a new travel reality, where freedom and flexibility are top of mind for more and more people," said Bob Wheeler, Airstream President and CEO. "Rangeline is the result of extensive research and dedication to understanding the van life movement and what customers want from their experience. It's a thoughtfully-designed, highly capable, multi-purpose van that handles like a daily driver, and it'll open a new world of Airstream adventures to one of the fastest growing segments in the RV industry."

• 270Ah lithium battery bank and a 2,000-watt power inverter
• All-electric appliances, including a 3.2 cu. ft. refrigerator, .4 cu. ft. freezer, and a stowable electric stovetop
