2018 Newmar Dutch Star Diesel Motor Coach
50 Years Have Taught Us... Shortcuts Are For The Short-Lived.
Leading the Way Forward
At Newmar, our first 50 years have taught us that the brightest futures are realized by those willing to blaze a new trail. Lead rather than follow. And reject cookie-cutter imitation in favor of cutting-edge innovation. That's why we are committed to spending the next half century creating handcrafted motor coaches that go above and beyond their batch-built competition. Coaches designed and engineered to help you live the RV lifestyle to the absolute fullest. Join us, and discover the Newmar difference for yourself.
