Thor vs Winnebago is a choice between a very wide motorhome lineup and a narrower one. Thor Motor Coach lists 39 motorhome models across Class A, B and C, including diesel Class A and Super C coaches, from $123,060. Winnebago's class pages list 15 motorhome entries, mostly camper vans and Class C models, with starting prices shown from $143,475.
| Motorhomes, as listed on 28 Oct 2026 | Thor Motor Coach | Winnebago |
|---|
| Parent company | THOR Industries | Winnebago Industries |
| Motorhome models listed | 39: 12 Class A, 8 Class B, 19 Class C (including Super C) | 15 entries on its class pages: 4 Class A, 5 camper vans, 6 Class C; the Journey diesel has its own page |
| Diesel choices | Freightliner diesel Class A (Palazzo, Riviera, Aria), diesel Super C, and every Mercedes-Benz Sprinter model | Revel and Revel Sport vans, View and Navion Class C, and the Journey diesel pusher (dealer stock only) |
| Price range shown | MSRP $123,060 (Four Winds) to $450,660 (Aria) | Starting at $143,475 (Solis Pocket 36A) to $480,270 (Journey) |
Prices are the builders' own figures in US dollars. Winnebago says its prices do not include "freight, taxes, title, license, dealer prep charges, or other miscellaneous fees"; ask any Thor dealer what a quoted price includes. Median dealer asking prices on Searchshop are lower than the builders' list prices for every model checked below. Browse Thor, Winnebago and other motorhomes for sale on Searchshop.
The comparison uses what Thor Motor Coach and Winnebago publish on their own websites, THOR Industries' annual report and Winnebago Industries' own pages, all read on 28 October 2026, plus Searchshop's dealer listings. Model counts and prices come from Thor's motorhomes and class pages and from Winnebago's Class A, Class C and camper van pages and model pages. Every figure was checked a second time by a separate review.
Nothing here comes from test drives or time in either brand's motorhomes, and neither brand is called better overall. Thor's model listings show one MSRP per model; for the Four Winds that figure, $123,060, is lower than any Four Winds floor plan price on its own page, which start at $127,960. Winnebago's pages mix model years: its own links label the View as 2026 and the Adventurer as 2025. Some Winnebago models show no price on the pages read, so they have none here. Towables are left out, because Thor Motor Coach builds only motorhomes.
Thor Motor Coach and Winnebago belong to two different companies. THOR Industries' annual report for the year to July 31, 2026 names Thor Motor Coach among its principal North American RV subsidiaries, alongside Airstream, Jayco, Keystone, KZ and Tiffin Motorhomes, and says "Thor Motor Coach manufactures and sells gasoline and diesel Class A, Class C and Class B motorhomes."
Thor Motor Coach says it was "Founded in 2010 through the merger of Damon Motor Coach and Four Winds International" and describes itself as "North America's #1 motorhome brand, building one in every four motorhomes sold yearly." That is the company's own claim.
Winnebago says it "is a wholly owned subsidiary of Winnebago Industries (NYSE:WGO)," whose brands are Winnebago, Grand Design, Chris-Craft, Newmar and Barletta. Winnebago traces its RVs to 1958. Its parent's other motorhome brand, Newmar, builds Class A and Super C coaches, which matters if you like Winnebago Industries but need a bigger diesel coach.
Thor covers more sizes and price points, especially larger diesel coaches, while Winnebago concentrates on camper vans, compact Class C models and gas Class A coaches. Thor's motorhomes page lists 39 models: 12 Class A, 8 Class B and 19 Class C. Thor's homepage also says it offers "over 150 floor plans." Many Thor models come in pairs that share a chassis description and MSRP, such as the Axis and Vegas, and Thor counts each one separately.
Winnebago's three motorhome class pages list 15 entries. Winnebago counts its twin models as one entry each, such as the View and Navion, the Sunflyer and Suncruiser, and the Elora and Resa. Winnebago's Class A page says its Class A models "are available with gas or diesel engines," but lists only four gas models; its Journey diesel pusher has its own page marked "Dealer Stock Only," as does the Minnie Winnie Class C.
The biggest gap is at the large end. Thor lists three Freightliner diesel Class A models and six Super C models in three price pairs; Thor says Super C engines "use diesel fuel and are built on a heavy-duty front-engine chassis." Winnebago's own pages list no Super C. At the small end, both brands build camper vans on the Ram ProMaster and Mercedes-Benz Sprinter, and both offer all-wheel-drive models.
Thor offers more Class A choice, from compact Ford gas coaches to Freightliner diesel pushers, while Winnebago lists four gas coaches plus the Journey diesel. These are the Class A models and prices each builder showed on 28 October 2026.
| Brand | Model | Chassis or fuel, as the builder lists it | Price |

| Thor | Outlaw (toy hauler) | Ford | MSRP $280,700 |
| Thor | Palazzo | Freightliner diesel | MSRP $314,020 |
| Thor | Riviera | Freightliner diesel | MSRP $400,260 |
| Thor | Aria | Freightliner diesel | MSRP $450,660 |

| Winnebago | Forza | Gas; 35'6" to 39'10" | Starting at $361,072 |
| Winnebago | Journey | Diesel pusher; dealer stock only | Starting at $480,270 |
Winnebago says its Class A models range "from 28'-5" to 41'-4" long" and "sleep up to 8." It also says all of its new Class A gas motorhomes "now come standard with 9 advanced technologies," which it calls the Driver Confidence Package. Thor's Class A FAQ notes that most states let anyone with a standard driver's license drive a Class A RV, but some may require a commercial license or endorsement above a weight threshold, so check your state's rules.
Thor and Winnebago both build camper vans on the Ram ProMaster and Mercedes-Benz Sprinter, and their published starting prices run from $143,475 to $261,808. Thor lists eight Class B vans; Winnebago lists five, and calls itself "the leading producer of camper vans."
| Brand | Model | Chassis | Price |
|---|
| Winnebago | Solis Pocket | Ram ProMaster | Starting at $143,475 (36A) |
| Thor | Rize, Scope | Ram ProMaster | MSRP $146,160 |
| Winnebago | Solis | Ram ProMaster | Starting at $156,254 (59P) |
| Thor | Sequence, Tellaro | Ram ProMaster | MSRP $161,560 |
| Winnebago | Travato | Ram ProMaster | Starting at $183,783 |
| Thor | Palladium, Talavera | Ford Transit AWD | MSRP $189,560 |
| Thor | Sanctuary, Tranquility | AWD Mercedes-Benz Sprinter | MSRP $202,860 |
| Winnebago | Revel Sport | Mercedes-Benz, diesel | Starting at $208,804 (44N) |
| Winnebago | Revel | AWD Mercedes-Benz Sprinter, turbo-diesel | Starting at $261,808 |
Thor says "All Sprinter models at Thor Motor Coach use diesel fuel." Winnebago says the Revel's turbo-diesel delivers "211 horsepower and over 330 pounds of torque." For a closer look at two of these vans, see Winnebago Solis vs Travato and the best Class B RVs guide.
Thor's 19 Class C models run from Ford E-Series family coaches to Freightliner Super Cs, while Winnebago's six Class C entries are all 32'9" or shorter. Thor's Class C list includes the Compass AWD and Gemini AWD, which Thor classifies as "Class B+ RVs."
| Brand | Model | Chassis | Price |
|---|
| Thor | Four Winds | Ford E-Series | MSRP from $123,060 |
| Thor | Quantum, Echelon | Ford E-Series | MSRP $123,340 |
| Thor | Chateau | Ford E-Series | MSRP $127,960 |
| Thor | Rize+, Scope+ | Ford E-Series | MSRP $130,340 |
| Winnebago | Minnie Winnie | Gas; 23'9" to 32'9"; dealer stock only | Starting at $146,248 |
| Thor | Compass AWD, Gemini AWD | Ford Transit AWD | MSRP $172,900 |
| Thor | Outlaw Class C (toy hauler) | Ford E-Series | MSRP $180,880 |
| Thor | Chateau Sprinter, Four Winds Sprinter | Mercedes-Benz Sprinter | MSRP $181,860 |
| Winnebago | EKKO | AWD Transit; 23' | Starting at $215,551 |
| Thor | Delano, Tiburon | Mercedes-Benz Sprinter | MSRP $226,940 |
| Winnebago | EKKO Sprinter | AWD Mercedes-Benz Sprinter; 24'6" | Starting at $250,014 |
| Thor | Magnitude, Omni (Super C) | Ford | MSRP $279,860 |
| Thor | Pasadena, Inception (Super C) | Freightliner | MSRP $358,960 |
| Thor | Inception HD, Pasadena SV (Super C) | Diesel; Freightliner on the Inception HD | MSRP $400,960 |
Winnebago also lists the Sunflyer and Suncruiser (Ford chassis, 25'2" to 29'9") and the Elora and Resa (Ram ProMaster, 20'4"), but their pages read showed no price. The View and Navion (Mercedes-Benz 4500 Series Sprinter with a turbo-diesel engine, 25'8") are left out of the table because two Winnebago pages show different starting prices for them. Winnebago says the Sunflyer and Suncruiser have an "8,000-lb hitch." Thor says every Thor Class C comes with a trailer hitch and that towing capacity is found by subtracting the GVW from the GCWR. For a Thor Class C matched against another brand floor plan by floor plan, see Thor Chateau vs Jayco Redhawk.
Dealer asking prices on Searchshop sit well below both builders' list prices, and in each pair checked the Thor model's median new asking price was lower than the Winnebago model's. The table counts new listings on Searchshop on 28 October 2026 whose title names the brand and model.
| Model | Type | New listings (model years) | Median asking price |
|---|
| Thor Four Winds | Class C | 60 (2025 to 2027) | $79,995 |
| Winnebago Minnie Winnie | Class C | 8 (2025 to 2026) | $114,610 |
| Thor Tellaro | Class B | 58 (2026 to 2027) | $109,997 |
| Thor Sequence | Class B | 9 (2024 to 2027) | $109,998 |
| Winnebago Solis | Class B | 54 (2025 to 2027) | $127,994 |
| Winnebago Travato | Class B | 33 (2025 to 2027) | $142,786 |
| Thor Axis | Class A | 21 (2026) | $111,989 |
| Thor Vegas | Class A | 21 (2026 to 2027) | $114,995 |
| Winnebago Sunstar | Class A | 12 (2024 to 2026) | $132,497 |
| Winnebago Vista | Class A | 9 (2025 to 2026) | $155,899 |
Asking prices are what dealers advertised, before taxes and fees, and medians are rounded to the nearest dollar. Many listings are earlier model years than the builders' current list prices, so the gap between list and asking price is not a like-for-like discount. Counts are the listings the site's search returned for each model name, which may not be every listing on the site.
Used prices narrow the gap. Searchshop showed 31 used Four Winds at a median of $74,995 and 9 used Minnie Winnies at a median of $86,990, across model years from 2014 to 2026. Compare floor plans and condition, not just the price, before you shortlist one.
Warranty terms differ by model, so get the written warranty for the exact coach before you sign. Winnebago's Sunflyer and Suncruiser page lists a "24-month/24,000-mile basic warranty," a "36 month/36,000 mile limited warranty on structure" and a "10 year limited parts and labor warranty on roof skin," and adds, "See your dealer for complete warranty information." The other Winnebago and Thor model pages read for this guide did not list warranty terms.
Thor says it has "hundreds of authorized Service Centers." If you plan to live in a motorhome, Thor's Class C FAQ says that "if you plan to be in any motorhome for several months, please reference your owner's manual to understand warranty coverage limitations." Ask either brand's dealer the same question in writing.
Start with the class and size you need, then compare the Thor and Winnebago models that fit, because each brand is stronger in different parts of the market. A simple way to narrow it down:
- You want a Super C or a Freightliner diesel Class A: Thor lists six Super C models in three price pairs and the Palazzo, Riviera and Aria; Winnebago's own pages list no Super C, though its parent's Newmar brand builds them.
- You want the most layouts to choose from: Thor lists 39 motorhome models and says it offers over 150 floor plans.
- You want a compact all-wheel-drive motorhome: compare Winnebago's EKKO, EKKO Sprinter and Revel with Thor's Compass AWD, Gemini AWD, Palladium, Talavera, Sanctuary and Tranquility.
- You want the lowest new asking price: in Searchshop's listings, the Thor Four Winds had the lowest median new asking price of the models checked.
- You want warranty terms on the builder's page: Winnebago lists them for the Sunflyer and Suncruiser; for any other model, ask the dealer.

No, Thor does not own Winnebago. THOR Industries' 2026 annual report lists its principal North American RV subsidiaries as Airstream, Jayco, Keystone, KZ, Thor Motor Coach and Tiffin Motorhomes. Winnebago is a wholly owned subsidiary of Winnebago Industries, which also owns Grand Design, Newmar, Chris-Craft and Barletta. The two parent companies are separate businesses.
Thor's lowest listed motorhome price is lower: the Four Winds Class C lists from $123,060, while the lowest Winnebago starting price shown on its pages is $143,475 for the Solis Pocket 36A van. Neither brand is cheaper model for model; Winnebago's Solis starts below Thor's Sequence and Tellaro. On Searchshop on 28 October 2026, the Thor models checked had lower median new asking prices than the Winnebago models they were paired with.
Winnebago's own Class A, Class C and camper van pages list no Super C motorhome. Its parent company's Newmar brand does build them: describing Newmar, Winnebago Industries says, "All of our Class A and Super C coaches are built on the same line." Thor Motor Coach lists six Super C models, the Magnitude, Omni, Pasadena, Inception, Inception HD and Pasadena SV, with MSRPs from $279,860.
