The Best Super C RVs of 2025
Class C coaches have always occupied a Goldilocks position in the RV space. Larger and more comfortable than a camper van, but not as big and ponderous as a Class A model, these motorhomes frequently strike a “just right” chord with buyers. And for those who prefer yet a little more space, Super C RVs are an option, delivering more of everything we love from this category of camper.
So what qualities define Super C RVs, and which models are the best on the market these days? Read on to find out.

What is a Super C RV?
In many ways, Super C RVs look a lot like their smaller Class C siblings. That includes the distinctive cabover design, which typically houses a sleeping space or additional storage. But whereas regular Class C models tend to be built on a van or pick-up truck platform, Super Cs ride on larger commercial truck chassis, such as the Ford F-550 or F-600 models.
Riding on a larger chassis gives Super C RVs some distinct advantages. For instance, a wider wheelbase gives them a smoother, more stable ride. These rigs also generally come with diesel engines that produce more power and provide a higher towing capacity for bringing a dinghy along for the journey, while also requiring less maintenance The larger platform also translates to more interior floor space, adding comfort, luxury, and residential-style amenities throughout.
Of course, there are a few downsides as well. Because these RVs are larger than regular Class C models, they aren’t quite as maneuverable or as easy to park. In fact, sometimes they rival Class A models in that department, making them somewhat intimidating to drive, especially for newcomers. Unsurprisingly, Super C RVs are also more expensive, often costing as much or more than a Class A coach.
With that information in mind, these are our picks for the best Super C RVs currently available.

RollAway Electric RV Rentals are Five-Star Hotels on Wheels
There are a plenty of places where you can rent an RV on the internet, but none are quite like RollAway. The recently-launched service promises a five-star luxury experience more akin to staying at a posh resort rather than booking a stay in a motorhome for a few days. That starts with a custom-built all-electric coach that allows you to camp and travel in comfort and style.
Photo Credit: RollAway
A Luxurious Electric RV
RollAway’s electric RVs come courtesy of BrightDrop, a sub-brand of General Motors that focuses on making an EV chassis for use in cargo vans. However, as with the Mercedes Sprinter and Ford Transit, those vans can also be converted into recreational vehicles, turning their interiors into custom living spaces with a suite of impressive features and amenities.
For its e-RVs, RollAway put a lot of effort into turning the interior into a flexible and comfortable living space. The floor plan includes a dining area that turns into an open living room when the table is removed, before later converting into an expansive bedroom with a plush mattress. The van feels less like a camper and more like a luxury hotel suite with a spa-inspired bathroom and shower, both of which are functional and gorgeous. Meanwhile, the modern kitchen includes an induction stove, plenty of counter space, and an onboard refrigerator, making meal prep fun and easy. The rear cargo door even rolls up to create an indoor/outdoor environment with plenty of fresh air and stunning views.
As for the vehicle itself, RollAway says it has a 270+ mile battery pack, which should keep range anxiety to a minimum. It supports fast-charging, so downtime is kept to a minimum. Of course, extended stays at a charging station are a lot easier when you can take a nap, play a game around the table, or whip up some lunch while lounging around the camper. Everything is designed to make the experience as fun and pleasurable as possible, keeping hassles to a minimum and ensuring customers get a lot of value for their money.

Five-Star Services and Features
For RollAway, the swanky camper van is only part of the appeal. The service hopes to extend its luxury hotel metaphor further by adding additional services and features to give customers an even more appealing experience. For instance, it includes several nice add-ons that provide additional convenience for campers. Those include a Yeti cooler and drinkware, as well as high-quality toiletries that feel more at home in a luxury spa than in an RV. You can even add Starlink satellite internet service to stay connected while on the go.
But that’s not all. RollAway also provides access to a live virtual concierge to help with trip planning, making reservations at restaurants and events, obtaining tickets to shows and sporting events, and more. The brand has even partnered with local restaurants for grab-and-go meal packages and getting a taste of local cuisine. You can even elect to have housekeeping service that provides fresh towels and linens throughout the length of your rental.
As if all of that wasn’t enough, RollAway also offers curated travel itineraries. All you have to do is tell them where you want to go and what you like to see and do, and the company’s travel experts will create a plan for the length of your trip. A tablet that provides all of the information—including driving routes and places to stop—is included in the package..
Photo Credit: RollAway
Now Taking Reservations
RollAway’s service and business plan are an ambitious one, to say the least. That’s why it should come as no surprise that it is only available in the San Francisco Bay Area for now, but the service will expand to other areas throughout 2025. The company started taking reservations last fall and is already booked solid. The plan is to bring more vans online in the near future, expanding capacity to help meet demand.
Anyone interested in booking a stay in a RollAway electric van can visit the company’s website. Pricing starts at $400/night, with some add-ons—like Starlink internet—adding additional fees. The site also provides more information on all of the available services and what to expect when renting the vehicle. Check it out at gorollaway.com.

Super C vs. Diesel Pusher: What’s the Best Choice for You?
If you’re in a quandary about which RV is right for you, here’s a handy guide to help you decide. Both Super Cs and Diesel Pushers are High-End and Feature-Filled, but there are real differences that can make one the stand-out for your lifestyle. Here are the biggest factors to help you decide.
Diesel vs. Diesel
If you’re looking at both Super Cs and Diesel Pusher Class As, then you have already decided one important factor: Power. Diesel engines provide it is abundance. But the real question is what you want to do with all that power.This usually comes down to whether you want more storage capacity, or you’re looking for more towing power.If you need towing power, the Super C is clearly the winner. Most Class A Diesel Pushers tend to max out at 10,000 pounds of towing power. Super Cs can tow 20,000 or 30,000 pounds, or sometimes even more.If what you’re looking for is storage capacity, there’s generally not as much storage in a Super C as you get in Class A diesel pushers. This is due to the engine placement.In a Class Super C, the engine is up front. To transfer power, there has to be a drive shaft that comes through the RV. And it extends back all the way to the rear wheels. Because of that, the drive shaft takes up vital pass-through storage area.In a diesel pusher you don’t have that issue because the engine’s in the back pushing the rig. So then, there’s no drive shaft going in between the two axles. As a result, you have complete pass-through storage along the underside of the coach.
Engine Front or Engine Back
This is an issue that really helps people choose because the differences caused can be so stark.As stated above, having an engine in the back of a Class A allows for greater storage area given the lack of a drive shaft. Likewise, that can also allow for more headroom and space in the coach in general, deeper slide-outs, and wider structures. More room can often mean more room features like bigger bathrooms, dishwashers and washer/dryers.In addition, there’s simply the length the engine takes up at the front of a Super C. A forty-foot Super C will simply not have as much room inside as a forty-foot Diesel Pusher.On the other hand, servicing a Super C is as easy as driving into a garage that services commercial diesel trucks. The engine is easily exposed and familiar to truck mechanics. A Diesel Pusher will require specialist RV service. While we at Poulsbo RV have all the needed tech and Master RVIA service experience, an ordinary diesel garage will often not even consider working on a Class A. They would have to go in the back bedroom and lift up the floor in order to access the engine. Most garages are not willing to even try.
Driving
That first quarter mile in any new RV is always intimidating. Some feel immediately more comfortable and safer in a Super C due to the enclosed feeling of a truck cab. It feels familiar if you’ve ever driven a pick-up truck—just bigger.We have found that most people getting into a Class A feel less secure for that first drive to the gas station. It feels so open and other cars are *right there*. But in general, most people get the feel for it fairly quickly. Most.In either case, given the current driver assist technology available for both classes, both are safe and getting safer to drive. It’s all about preference.In the end, a test drive is your best option to see what feels right for you.
Comfort & Noise
In terms of a comfortable ride, there is a difference. Super Cs are built on a commercial type truck chassis. So they tend to ride more like a commercial truck.Class A Diesel Pusher is known and loved for the ride. Generally, they have higher quality suspension systems. With that nice air suspension system as you’re going down the highway, you’re floating as you go. It’s the very definition of a comfortable ride.
Noise can also be a problem in a Super C as well, just because of engine placement. The engine is right in front of you, as opposed to an engine placed thirty feet behind you.Admittedly, some people truly enjoy the sound of that big, powerful engine. For you, the noise is a feature, not a fault.As for the horn: Super C wins. No notes. Sorry Class As.
Sleeping
Class Cs, in general, are seen as the “Family Friendly” model of RV. And there is that sleeping space over the cab which the kids just love. Most Super Cs follow that line of design and provide lots of sleeping space.It’s a tradition, after all.But for sheer number of models available, Diesel Pushers have an almost 10 to 1 advantage; many designed for couples seeking luxury, but a fair number of bunkhouse models are available as well.In this case, it’s a toss-up. If you need more sleeping spaces, you can find them in either Super Cs or Class As. Oh, but there’s those fond over-the-cab memories to gift the next generation…
