Middlebury, IN – April
2025 / NewsmakerAlert: Remote trails, first tracks in fresh
powder and backcountry star gazing are more accessible than ever thanks
to Grand Design RV’s latest
innovation, the new Lineage Series VT luxury adventure van. The company,
a leading manufacturer of premium towable and motorized RVs, today announced
the launch of its first class B motorhome, a new addition to its acclaimed
Lineage® product line, following the recent introductions of the Lineage
Series F class super C and Lineage
Series M class C RVs.
Built for those who demand
rugged assurance, the Lineage
Series VT empowers adventurers to explore with complete confidence
– whether traveling challenging terrain, towing additional gear, or venturing
off-grid.
“Every inch of the Lineage
Series VT has been meticulously engineered to solve the real challenges
adventure van owners face,” said Tommy
Hall, Grand Design’s motorized general manager. “From our innovative
storage solutions to our enhanced off-grid capabilities, we have created
a vehicle that doesn’t just meet the demands of remote exploration – it
anticipates them. This isn’t another van conversion; it’s intentionally
built to change how people experience van life.”
The launch of Series VT answers
the growing demand for sustainable travel options and the rising popularity
of nomadic lifestyles. The Lineage Series VT is built on the AWD Ford Transit
chassis, marking the first high-volume production collaboration of its
kind in the adventure van segment and includes an exclusive, industry first,
fully integrated pop-top option allowing the rig to comfortably sleep four.
The Ford Transit chassis provides the perfect foundation for what adventure
van owners truly need: reliability, capability, and serviceability across
North America
Lineage Series VT highlights
include:
-
A fully convertible AquaHaven
Rainshower System, allowing campers to adjust the space from living
room to shower. The venting window, expanded shower height, luxe rainfall
shower head and flexible hidden drain bring the comforts of home without
typical constraints.
-
An industry-first Undermount
Cooktop by InvisaCook™ that conserves counter space with an Italian
porcelain countertop featuring a built-in undermount induction cooktop.
-
An industry-first Stealth
Split AC System that revolutionizes van comfort by moving AC components
off your roof to save space while delivering superior cooling at 20K BTU
capacity in near silence.
-
A Custom Ford Raptor®-Style
Grille that makes a bold statement while maintaining Ford’s engineering
excellence.
-
An industry-leading 48V Lithionics
System that delivers reliable power for longer adventures away from
shore power—up to 3 days with AC.
-
An industry-first Panoramic
Double-Pane Skylight developed and manufactured in Europe provides
an immersive experience with exceptional optical and thermal performance
on the road, with 10-year UV protection against fade and discoloration.
“At Grand Design, everything
we do and every product we build revolves around our customers and the
goal of elevating their outdoor recreation experience,” said Stephan
Dolzan, the Lineage Series VT product manager. “Our entry with the
Lineage Series VT isn’t about capturing a trend; it’s about setting new
standards in a market that’s ready for disruption.”
