Thanks to the obstruction-free Workhorse UFO™ platform, you can own a motor home that has all the benefits of rear power, a choice of your favorite type of engine (Universal Fuel Option) and a floorplan you never thought you'd find in a motorized coach (Universal Floorplan Options).  The Workhorse UFO™ is our latest innovation.  That's not surprising.  We're the only chassis company fully dedicated to giving you a better motor home experience through forward-thinking, customer driven chassis innovations.

Forget traditional floor plans.  Think of having the freedom to spread out in a living area at the back of the coach - with two slide-outs, a rear bay window and overstuffed chairs to help you enjoy the view. 

Say goodbye to noisy cockpits.  Imagine no more front dog house because there is never an engine in the cab!  Now you can enjoy friendly conversation or the rich sounds of your premium audio system.  All while going full throttle down the interstate.

Forget the front-equals-gas, rear-equals-diesel idea.  Love the long life and the mountain climbing, trailer towing torque of a diesel?  Or do you favor the lower cost and easy maintenance of today's high-tech gas engines?  Now you can have it either way - diesel or gas - in the same rear-powered motor home.

Welcome to the motor home of the future.  Discover the creation of a new Class A category, the emerging world of the Workhorse UFO™.

New technologies have a way of undercutting traditional icons of performance, comfort and efficiency.

In designing the Workhorse UFO™ we integrated the latest and best technologies to ensure superior performance, no matter the driving conditions.
