If you love traveling, especially on the open road, then you probably
appreciate a nice motorhome. The luxury of having your own vehicle with
a bathroom, a kitchen, and all the other amenities that your house has
makes adventuring in the wilds that much more enjoyable. Having space to
lie down and legroom to stretch is a design feature that most RV
drivers take for granted; the downtrodden students in their tiny,
over-crowded Toyota with a 4-person tent packed into the trunk are
likely at least a little envious.
Recent years have seen a rise of
bus-converted luxury motorhomes, transformations of buses into
state-of-the-art mansions on wheels. While it’s true that most of the
added features of these pristine machines certainly aren’t necessary,
they’re definitely enviable. If you’re lucky enough to have the cash to
burn and don’t want to leave your luxuries at home while enjoying a road
trip, why not indulge in some extravagant motorhome comforts? And who
wouldn’t want to roadtrip with friends in an RV that looks like a
top-of-the-line nightclub? We might typically equate yachts and
limousines with seriously high-class travel, but the following ten most
expensive motorhomes on the market prove that the humble roadster can
rival any of the most indulgent grown up toys in terms of extravagance
and luxury.
10. 2015 Entegra Coach Cornerstone 45DLQ – $464,000
The gorgeous Cornerstone by Entegra Coach gives drivers a cab-forward
design, including eight-way power seats and SmartWheel integrated
steering to make the ride comfortable, while also offering advanced
Mobileye and touchscreen technology. The elegant design includes a
master suite with a cedar-lined walk-in closet, as well as a sound bar
and entertainment system. The Cornerstone is detailed with quartz
countertops, heated porcelain flooring, a walk-in shower, and much more.
You could live very comfortably in this RV for quite a while, given its
huge size and luxury fittings.
9. Country Coach Magna 630 – $495,000
This beautiful 40’ bus-converted RV was created by the luxury RV company
Country Coach. It is powered with a 600HP Cummins engine, and it climbs
over mountains beautifully when towed thanks to its power tilt and
telescope wheels. The interior is decorated with walnut cabinets and
earth tones, as well as a custom sofa, queen-sized bed, chairs, a washer
and dryer, a dinette booth, and a tiled entry step. Solar panels on the
roof of the RV keeps the power going inside, and the Magna also
provides keyless entry with a touch pad.
8. UNICAT Amerigo International – $500,000
This RV looks a bit like a garbage truck, but its humble exterior is
deceptive. The body doesn’t provide very much to look at in terms of
“luxury,” but it’s the interior that counts here – and that adds up to
half a million dollars. UNICAT calls its models ‘exploration vehicles,’
and this thing is one of the most rugged RVs on the market. So much so,
in fact, that Jalopnik chose their vehicles as one of the best places to
ride out a zombie apocalypse.
Built with solar panels and a
2,000-mile gas tank, the International can go coast to coast without
stopping. Inside, there’s a kitchen, a master suite, desk space, and
even a watermaker that can decontaminate water making it drinkable
should you get stuck in a dire situation. Though it costs more than a
small house, survivalists will attest that it’s worth every penny to be
able to travel over such unruly terrain.
7. 2015 Monaco Dynasty 45P – $585,750
Monaco is one of the industry leaders in luxury RVs, and the all-new
2015 Dynasty is their most ambitious creation yet. It features an
all-new Roadmaster chassis with a 600HP Cummins engine, and its design
drew on opinions from current Monaco owners so that the company could
create a product inspired by their customers, for their customers.
Inside
the Dynasty, every design is beautifully crafted; lined cabinets,
an LED ceiling and a TV that can be controlled from the centralized
command center, and a porcelain tile floor. The master bedroom comes
with a king-sized Serenity Series memory foam mattress, surrounded by
cedar-lined cabinets, walls, and wardrobes.
6. 2015 Newmar King Aire – $738,645
The Newmar King Aire will have you ruling the road and campsite like a
king, built to showcase its luxury, innovation, and quality. It’s a
Class A motor coach powered by a 600HP Cummins ISX turbo diesel engine,
and supported by a custom-built Spartan K3 chassis. The RV features a
Comfort Drive steering system with power control, and a Safety Cruise
Collision Avoidance system to help you navigate through adverse weather
and hazards.
The entertainment system is illuminated by
powered-awnings, and the spacious kitchen is chrome-finished with
glossed hardwood cabinetry, giving all of its passengers the feeling of
luxury. The residential decor is complete with two Villa sofas, a
dinette ensemble, a washer and dryer, porcelain floors, and a master
bedroom with a walk-in bathroom and overhead LED lighting.
5. 2014 Country Coach Prevost – $1,000,000
This RV isn’t for riding over rugged terrain or adventurous use, but
it’s perfect for those who want to enjoy traveling in luxury between
cities and towns. This converted bus is a great touring machine, with
functional elegance, a sleek stainless-steel shell, and an aerodynamic
profile. This motorhome, like many of the others on this list, comes
equipped with porcelain tiled flooring, cedar-lined cabinets and walls,
an entertainment system and beautiful master bedroom lined with quartz
and a walk-in closet and separated bathroom.
4. 2015 Foretravel IH-45 Luxury Motor Coach – $1,300,000
Foretravel has been in the motorhome-building business since 1967,
located out of Nacogdoches, the “Oldest Town in Texas.” The IH-45 is a
45’ luxury motor coach with completely custom and unique designs, such
as the TravelRide chassis which emulates the construction of an airplane
by distributing vibration through the subfloor, floor, walls, and roof
for ultimate noise reduction. Other features that set it apart from the
competition include a 20,000 kilowatt generator, slide-out rooms, a
Knoedler air-ride pilot seat, 4 roof A/C units, and a steel constructed
cockpit, walls, and floor. At over a million dollars MSRP, it’s no
wonder that the IH-45 is gorgeous both in design and functionality.
3. 2015 Prevost H3-45 VIP – $1,600,000
The Prevost H3-45 VIP is part of the H-series, one of two lines from
the luxury RV makers at Prevost. The company describes it as the “sleek
and modern” line, whereas the other series, the X-series is dubbed
“timeless and classic.” True to their promise, the Prevost H3-45 is
innovative and excellent. It is the tallest converted coach, standing at
12 feet 5 inches, giving unparalleled roominess, the industry’s highest
cabin floor, and unmatched panoramic views for the driver and
passengers.
The outer shell is made from a precision-molded fiber
composite, giving the RV reduced weight and maximum strength. Inside, as
expected, the H3-45 is decorated with a gorgeous, sleek glossed wooden
floor, modern sofas, chairs, desk space, kitchen, and bedroom, and
curved marble tables. All of the contemporary designs and features make
this one of prettiest luxury RVs on the market.
2. Featherlite Vantare Platinum Plus – $2,500,000
The master bedroom comes equipped with a king bed with a plasma TV that lifts out of the floorboard, bath hardware from France, a washer and dryer, and a built-in treadmill. The cockpit comes with state-of-the-art Avic N-2 GPS system with real-time traffic and weather alerts. On the outside, the RV even has a garage slide-out compartment that fits a sports car! The shell is made from a Prevost bus shell, and the gas tank holds 235 gallons, which costs around $1,000 to fill up.
1. Marchi Mobile EleMMent Palazzo – $3,000,000
The fixtures inside are akin to those found in a luxury hotel, such as
hand-cut wooden flooring, marble countertops, and even a staircase that
leads to the vehicle’s upper deck. The design of the living room and the
interior LED lighting gives the inside the vibe of a top-tier
nightclub, complete with a full-length sunroof. The Palazzo is popular
among oil-rich Arab Sheikhs, and according to Marchi Mobile, the
minimalistic design uses “modern shapes fused with classy and antique
design elements.” Both the interior and exterior of this motor coach is
“just as extravagant as its owner.”
