8 Best Small RVs

When it's time to hit the open road, Transwest has the right-sized RV for you! Many RVers look to smaller RV models these days, prioritizing a compact, powerful motorhome over the spacious but unwieldy floorplans of Class A RVs, or similar oversized models. Inside these compact RVs, you’ll still find high-end finishes and unbeatable features, making “van life” and “RV life” one in the same.

Deepen bonds, create memories, and explore the great outdoors—you’ll adventure onward in one of the eight best small RVs for 2022. Read on to learn why we think these small RVs (campervans and beyond), are the best of their class.

Class B RVs - Meet the Best Campervans

With all the amenities of a larger motorcoach, the small Class B RV is the traditional choice for someone looking for a small motorhome, perfect for those planning to maneuver a getaway without the hassle of hotel reservations on the fly. Weekend travelers love the fuel efficiency, maneuverable size, and interior comfort of a Class B RV. 

Class B RVs are the smallest and most convenient type of recreational vehicle, with a size that usually ranges from 18 to 24 feet long. Typical Class B RVs sleep two to four people and have feature floorplans. Often called a sprinter or campervan, the Class B RV is a quick, agile, and efficient way to get in and out of town. You can even park this type of compact RV in your driveway or many garages.

The 2023 Antero Bamaga and 2023 Antero Kakadu have yet to be released, but that doesn't stop these campervans from making the 'best of' list as we evaluate the best small RVs to roll into the New Year with. The 2022 Antero Bamaga and the 2022 Antero Kakadu have maximized the use of space through intelligent, versatile features. Keep your eye out for the 2023 Antero Bamaga and 2023 Antero Kakadu, which are coming soon!

Here is what makes these campervans stand out: 

Stand-Out Solar Setup: The 2022 Antero Bamaga and the 2022 Antero Kakadu have a rooftop solar setup to ensure you are never without power. The 270 watt system connects to two lithium-ion batteries and multiple outlets throughout the vehicle to stay on-grid and off-road. 

Functional Flexibility: Customizability is one of the many reasons we consider the 2022 Antero Barmaga and the Antero Kakadu one of 2023's Top Class B RVs. When you have limited space, versatility and intelligent design matter more than ever. The full-length L-track system allows you to configure seats and accessories in any way you like.

Fuel type: Diesel

Sleeping Capacity: 4

Chassis: Mercedes Sprinter 4x4

The 2023 Winnebago 4x4 Revel has stayed true to what owners love about previous models while expanding upon what they need. The Winnebago Revel is perfect for adventurers, with features that support your most ambitious adventures (like the Hydronic Heating System, 4WD, and extensive insulation) while still supporting a comfortable ride (thanks to the easy-to-clean surfaces and power-lift bed).

This year's model is built on the Mercedes Benz Sprinter Chasis, boasts 30% more lithium capacity, and comes equipped with a backup alternator and spare tire, a newly portable induction cooktop, an all-new slip-resistant floor, and their famous Power Lift Bed. What is not to love about this Winnebago campervan?

The Winnebago Travato is regularly one of the top-selling campervans in America.

2023 Winnebago Travato 

Class B RV

Length: 21'

Fuel type: Gasoline

Sleeping Capacity: 2

Chassis: RAM ProMaster

The 2023 Winnebago Travato Class B RV has been one of America's top-selling campervans for years. The 2023 Winnebago Travato is fuel-efficient but powerful, spacious, and yet, agile enough to take into town. It is estimated that the new Travato will achieve around 20mpg highway! Inside the 2023 Travato, you’ll find innovative storage, making the most of all of the 21-foot-long Class B RV’s space. The swing-arm-mounted table gives you ultimate flexibility when it comes to using your living space, perfect for both meals, work, hobbies, and more.

Safety was top of mind when re-designing the 2023 Winnebago Travato. This year's model has new features, including collision warning, drowsy driver detection, automatic high beams, and crosswind assist, keeping you on the road and on the go.

The 2023 Winnebago Solis is the perfect Class B RV for agile trips with friends or family.

Inside the campervan, you’ll find flexible seating, with automotive-grade seating at the dinette. The entire campervan has floor-to-ceiling insulation, so you’ll stay warm (or cool) no matter the weather.

Built on the lightweight Ram Promaster Chassis, this campervan is made for efficiency and quick trips into town, so its ideal if you’d like to fully embrace off-the-grid living. Other features that help support boondocking lifestyles include dual exterior wash stations, Eco-Hot water systems, and a one-panel solar power system.

Class C RVs - Meet the Best Mid-Sized RVs

Suppose you're searching for a smaller recreational vehicle with easy maneuverability and all the amenities of a more prominent Class A RV. In that case, a Class C RV could be the perfect fit. 

Class C RVs offer slightly more breathing room than the previous class. They combine freedom, maneuverability, and luxury to provide an upscale, comfortable home away from home. These models are certainly for the adventurous spirit who recognizes the importance of convenient modern features. 

Despite their slightly larger size, they are still some of the best small RVs out there. Here are a few of our favorite Class C RVs entering 2023.

Exclusive 50th anniversary styles are available for the 2023 Tiffin Wayfarer.

2023 Tiffin Wayfarer 

Class C RV

Length: 25' 8"

Fuel type: Diesel

Sleeping Capacity: 3

Chassis: Mercedes® 3500XD Dual Wheel Cutaway Chassis.

A few of our favorite, simple updates go a long way in the 2023 Tiffin Wayfarer Class C RV. New for 2023 features include new paint schemes and exclusive 50th anniversary exterior paint color packages, with 50th anniversary decals, to mark the occasion. Inside the 2023 Wayfarer, there are now a maple cabinetry option, night and day shades, a redesigned galley, and flush-mounted valances. In the overhead bunk, there are now blackout cab curtains to give you complete privacy.

The Wayfarer comes in four different floorplans, all measuring 25 feet, 8 inches long and 11 feet, 4 inches tall, making it highly drivable. That driving experience is further improved by adaptive cruise control, active brake assist, and active lane-keeping assist, all built on the Mercedes-Benz 3500XD Dual Wheel Cutaway Chassis.

2023 Renegade Verona 

Super C RV

Length: 25'6"

Fuel type: Diesel

Sleeping Capacity: 6

Chassis: Freightliner M2 chassis

The 2023 Renegade Verona comes in three different lengths across its four different floorplans, with units that are 40’2” long, 36’11” long, and 33’11” long. You’ll get plenty of space to stretch out in this popular Class C RV, with slide-outs that give you extra space once you’re parked. Built on a Freightliner chassis, the Renegade Verona features a seven foot interior height, so you won’t feel closed in at all.

Inside the Verona, you’ll find an upgraded cab sound system with both dash and ceiling speakers, a soundbar in the home theater, and two 4K Smart LED TVs. Stay comfy by lounging on the Ultra-Sot bed or dinette seating, or the iRelax memory foam mattress, depending on your floorplan. Optional additions include theatre seating, cabover bunk with TV, stackable washer/dryer, and 175W solar panels.

2023 Winnebago Navion 

Class C RV

Length: 25'6"

Fuel type: Diesel

Sleeping Capacity: 4

Chassis: Mercedes-Benz® Sprinter Chassis

The 2023 Winnebago Navion creates memories that last lifetimes by combining the power you need, upscale comfort, and a drivable design. You’ll enjoy the power of a Winnebago vehicle, as the brand is well-known for its Class B RVs, in a larger space, without becoming as unwieldy as a Class A RV. The Winnebago Navion sleeps up to four people and is 25 feet, 6 inches long, available in three different floorplans.

Safety features are extensive inside the Navion, including the lane-keeping assist and brake assist, so you can drive confidently. When you want to take things off-grid, count on the powerful battery system and large holding tanks.
