Winnebago View Class C
See reader's comments and experiences at bottom of page

"Built on the popular Dodge Sprinter chassis with a beautiful interior"


2009 Winnebago View exterior

Winnebago says: "The View embodies our revolutionary vision that launched the RV industry 50 years ago. It features Adaptive ESP technology that senses vehicle load and performance parameters to maximize handling, control and driving stability. Inside, the View incorporates SmartSpace design to create streamlined, feature-filled floorplans."

Built on a Dodge Sprinter chassis and powered by a Mercedes-Benz® 3.0L V6 154 hp turbo-diesel engine, the Winnebago View has a length of 24'6" and an exterior width of 7'6".

The exterior height is 10'11" and the interior height an impressive 6'8".

  
The
interior shown below is the 24J floorplan model with the Race Way decor. (There is a choice of 4 decors available.)

2009 Winnebago View interior



Winnebago View interior looking forward

There a 4 floorplans available - we show these below.  The 24J (the model shown in the picture above) has a rear bed arrangement.  The 24H has a spacious arrangement with a sofa/bed, dinette and rear bathroom layout.  The 24P is a new floorplan with rear bunks and a sofa/bed arrangement.  The 24A is also a new floorplan with a near full-wall slide.  (This is the model featured in the picture directly above.)  All of the models offer an optional front entertainment center.
  

 


We think the View is a terrific class C.  Base MSRP starts at $93,873. (May 2009)

KMKLVI want to know what Aussie is driving!!
aussieI really cant get over this `obsession' that Americans have that a `dodge' isnt supported anymore dodge hasnt been available anywhere apart from America for the last 3 decades It's a Merc sprinter parts available worldwide (far more so than any Chrysler bits) and turbo diesels rule the roads v8 (v10's in america???- say whhhaaa) I see all the camper owners in america complaining about 8-10 mpg well you should be I get about 28 mpg in a bigger 4 tonner ( thats about 8800 pounds according to wiki) makes me wonder what I am doing right or you guys are doing really wrong... ?????
chris we just bought a 2009 view 24H. After one weekend trip, we also find it much easier to drive than our last RV - a 21 ft Four winds. My husband and I look forward to traveling and think the View will be perfect for longer trips across county. We would enjoy meeting and traveling with new friends from FL if we ever get down there from our current home in northern IL.
kay60+ couple, active, man with Parkinsons. Sold 30ft Class A. bought a new Winnebago View. Love it and have put 8000 miles on it in 3 months. Would like to visit with other retired, partly disabled couples with small motor homes that might like to travel. We live in N Florida.
Dan in VAWe too have a 2008 24H View with 20K miles. It is so easy to drive I found myself running errands with it while my car was unavailable. 15+ MPG smooth, quiet, clean. The Mercedes chassis and motor are the latest in driveline and Diesel technology. Chassis maintenance can be expensive if brought in for service. Oil changes require 14 quarts of specialty synthetic, and costly fuel filter every 10K miles. This high cost may keep some from performing required maintenance. Fortunately I can do my own.
Dan in VAThe new low sulfur clean Diesels are clean. They don't smell or smoke. Putting a white paper over the exhaust pipe exit will reveal no black soot. I have a 2008 Winnebago View on a Sprinter chassis by Mercedes. It's smooth, quiet, clean, and returns 15+ real world MPG. Old technology burning new Diesel fuel will smoke and smell. Eventually those will be replaced by the new technology motors. The Sprinter and the diesel the future.
porscheracerWe have an '08 View 24H, as well as an '05 Winnebago Vectra 36RD. Each is the best of its world. The View, although somewhat cramped compared to a larger unit, is the perfect "sprinter". It returns an honest 15MPG in mixed driving, and drives like a van. We have had it for 5 months, put 5000 miles on it, and have had exactly zero problems. Winnebago are great.
Josh CollinsI've had 2 class A's but with fuel prices going up I think I'll go for a class C next time. The view looks terrific and I know the Sprinter gives good mileage.
terry regennitterThe only thing I would consider for a new motorhome is the Winnebago View. 15 yrs. full timer.
