  • Grab assist bars have been placed in the shower and around the stool.
  • In the kitchen Newmar has incorporated a new cook top and microwave combination that places the convection microwave below the cook top for easy access by a wheelchair occupant.
  • The Canyon Star 3911 has a standard “L” dinette that allows seating on the side or back bench as well as plenty of space to accommodate a wheelchair.
  • Other features include moving all the switches, monitor panel, and EMS panel from the top of the entrance door cabinet to a cabinet just behind the passenger seat for access while sitting in wheelchair.

“Our top-of-the-line Itasca Ellipse adds another stunning floorplan to its lineup for 2012 – the 42JD,” said Roger Martin, vice president of sales and marketing for Winnebago. “There’s not just one thing that makes this floorplan appealing – there are many, like the enormous bathroom in the rear with his and her sinks, or the dual wardrobes in the bedroom, or the ultra-comfortable lounge area with opposing couches. Or, you can go outside and fully appreciate the exterior beauty of this coach, with its powerful Maxum chassis that offer unsurpassed drivability and storage.”

The Ellipse 42JD features three slide-outs, with a full-wall slide on the street side, according to Winnebago. It also has two TVs in the living area – a 32-inch LED HDTV mid-coach and a 40-inch LCD HDTV in the front overhead. The dining area offers a buffet with an extendable dining table, chairs and a four-door refrigerator. A residential-style Maytag French door refrigerator is optional. The galley features “Pantry x2,” offering double the pantry storage thanks to swing-out doors for improved storage and function. High-end Corian solid surface countertops, backsplash and sink covers are additional galley highlights.

The large master bath includes his and her sinks and a large curved “Big Shower” with skylight, dual master bath wardrobes and optional stacked washer and dryer. A guest bath is positioned for easy access mid-coach. The bedroom features the “Ideal Rest” powered king bed and large dual wardrobes along with a 26-inch LCD HDTV and a rear stereo system with an AM/FM/CD/DVD player, iPod, and MP3 input and built-in alarm clock.

FOREST CITY, Iowa- Winnebago Industries, Inc. has developed and manufactured a new Ability Equipped design for the fuel-efficient ERA Class B motor home.

Perfect for those wishing to downsize, enjoy weekend travel or anyone looking for a full service recreation vehicle in a compact size, the ERA now has an additional new floorplan available for those with special physical needs. Winnebago Industries has added the new Ability Equipped floorplan to its ERA line to meet the needs of those customers who face physical challenges. While Winnebago Industries is well known as a leader in the sale of traditional Class A and C motor homes, the Company is also an experienced leader in the design and manufacture of vehicles that enable individuals with special mobility concerns to travel freely and comfortably.

Special Ability Equipped ERA features:

  • Ricon KlearVue™ lift in the rear of the motor home. This lift provides easy access into the ERA while its low profile design allows an unobstructed view out the windows of the rear entrance door.

  • Wheelchair lock-downs are provided on the driver’s side of the vehicle behind the front cab seats
  • Bath doors swing out for easy access into the bathroom

  • Custom galley with sink, stovetop, microwave mounted under stovetop for easy access, and Waeco refrigerator which extends on a sliding tray from the end of the galley cabinet

Built on an 8,550-lb. GVWR Mercedes-Benz Sprinter chassis with a fuel efficient 3L 6-cylinder turbo-diesel Mercedes-Benz engine, the ERA features an aerodynamic design with smooth lines and striking full body paint. The exterior is further enhanced with stylized, 16-inch aluminum wheels and full-length running boards. A 5,000-lb. hitch and optional patio awning are additional highlights of this coach. In addition to the rear door with the wheelchair lift, the Ability Equipped ERA also has front cab doors and a large sliding door on the passenger side of the vehicle for easy entry for additional occupants.

The ERA also features Winnebago Industries’ RV Radio that combines an AM/FM radio, CD and weatherband in one and includes an iPod/MP3 jack and hand held remote. The radio is also combined with a rearview monitor system with a touch screen, displaying weather alerts and song type, in addition to a clear picture of the exterior behind the motor home for use when backing up. The rearview monitor system also features one-way audio that is helpful when a person outside can help the driver navigate in and out of tight spots. Sirius satellite radio is also available. The ERA has plush, UltraLeather furnishings, solid-surface countertops and a 15-inch pivoting TV with DVD player. A rear dinette pedestal table and bench seats easily convert to a comfortable 40” x 69” sleeping area. The front cab seats swivel fully to face the rear of the motor home for easy access from a wheelchair. A removable pedestal table by the cab seats also provides a second dining area or a convenient spot for playing games.
