Fleetwood Discovery LXE FAQs
What is the Fleetwood Discovery LXE?
The Fleetwood Discovery LXE is a Class A diesel pusher motorhome built on a Freightliner Custom Chassis XCM with the Freedom Bridge foundation and Cummins ISL 9L diesel power. It sits one tier above the entry-level Discovery in Fleetwood's lineup, with a longer wheelbase, higher-output engine options, and standard equipment that includes a WiFi Ranger Sky Pro 4 with LTE, a 300-watt solar panel, a cellular booster, GIRARD roof-mounted awnings, solid hardwood cabinetry, solid-surface countertops throughout, and full hand-laid porcelain tile flooring with heated tile in the living area. Fleetwood builds the Discovery LXE in four floor plans, and Motor Home Specialist stocks all four: the 40G, 40M, 44B, and 44S.
What chassis is the Discovery LXE built on?
The Discovery LXE is built on the Freightliner Custom Chassis XCM with the Freedom Bridge foundation. The 40G and 40M run the Cummins ISL 9L at 380 horsepower and 1,150 lb-ft of torque with the V-Series suspension system and VFS front suspension. The 44B and 44S run the same Cummins ISL 9L at 450 horsepower and 1,250 lb-ft of torque with the ZF Independent Front Suspension (up to a 60-degree wheel cut) and the Ultra Steer tag axle. Every floor plan pairs the engine with an Allison 3000 MH 6-speed transmission, a Delco Remy 160-amp alternator, and a 100-gallon fuel tank. The 40G and 40M carry a 46,600-pound GCWR with a 10,000-pound trailer hitch, while the 44B and 44S step up to a 58,600-pound GCWR with a 15,000-pound trailer hitch. V-Ride Technology, Freightliner BrakeSync, and tire pressure monitoring are standard across all four floor plans.
Is the Discovery LXE a diesel pusher?
Yes. The Discovery LXE is a Class A diesel pusher. The Cummins ISL 9L diesel engine sits at the rear of the coach over the drive axle. Diesel pusher coaches typically offer a quieter cabin than front-engine layouts, better weight distribution for ride and handling, and higher towing capacity than typical Class A or Class C gas motorhomes. All of that applies to the Discovery LXE's Freightliner XCM chassis.
How much can the Discovery LXE tow?
Tow capacity varies by floor plan. The 40G and 40M are rated to tow 10,000 pounds with a 1,000-pound tongue weight. The 44B and 44S step up to a 15,000-pound trailer hitch with a 1,500-pound tongue weight. Either rating covers most tow-behind passenger vehicles owners use as a dinghy, including full-size SUVs and trucks. The 44B and 44S are also capable of pulling small enclosed trailers.
What floor plans does the Discovery LXE come in?
Fleetwood builds the Discovery LXE in four floor plans: 40G, 40M, 44B, and 44S. Motor Home Specialist stocks all four. The 40G is a 41-foot 4-inch bunk coach on the 380-horsepower chassis. The 40M is a 40-foot 1-inch coach on the same 380-horsepower chassis with his-and-hers master sinks. The 44B is a 44-foot bunk coach on the 450-horsepower ZF Independent suspension chassis. The 44S is the lineup's luxury flagship, a 44-foot coach on the 450-horsepower chassis with the largest tile shower, his-and-hers sinks, and a private lavy.
Does the Discovery LXE come in a bunk model floor plan?
Yes, the Discovery LXE offers two dedicated bunk floor plans. The 40G features a Serenity Series king bed in the rear master with side-by-side bunk beds (28 by 73 inches) that convert to wardrobe storage when not needed. The 44B features an Encore Series king bed in the rear master with the same bunk configuration (28 by 73 inches) plus dedicated bunk storage, on the heavier 450-horsepower chassis. Motor Home Specialist stocks both bunk plans alongside the 40M and 44S.
Does the Discovery LXE come with solar?
Yes. Every Discovery LXE floor plan comes standard with a 300-watt solar panel, a WiFi Ranger Sky Pro 4 with LTE, and a cellular booster. An upgraded factory Technology Package adds a 330-watt solar panel, the WiFi Extender Pro Pack with LTE, Collision Mitigation by MobileEye, and the FireFly Eclipse module for remote app access via WiFi.
Does the Discovery LXE come with safety features like adaptive cruise control?
Collision Mitigation by MobileEye is available on the Discovery LXE as part of the optional Technology Package. BlindSpot Detection is available as a separate factory option. The Freightliner chassis includes BrakeSync and tire pressure monitoring as standard equipment. The 44B and 44S also add the ZF Independent Front Suspension with a 60-degree wheel cut and the Ultra Steer tag axle for tighter handling.
What is the difference between the Discovery LXE and the Discovery?
Both are Fleetwood Class A diesel pushers built on the Freightliner Custom Chassis XCM with the Freedom Bridge foundation, but the LXE sits at the top of Fleetwood's diesel lineup with a longer wheelbase, more powerful engine choices, and a longer standard feature list. The Discovery runs the Cummins ISB 6.7L engine (360 horsepower, 800 lb-ft of torque) on every floor plan. The LXE runs the Cummins ISL 9L at either 380 horsepower (40G and 40M) or 450 horsepower (44B and 44S). The LXE's 44B and 44S step up to a 58,600-pound GCWR, a 15,000-pound trailer hitch, the ZF Independent Front Suspension with a 60-degree wheel cut, and the Ultra Steer tag axle. The LXE also adds the WiFi Ranger Sky Pro 4 with LTE, a 300-watt solar panel, and a cellular booster as standard on every plan (these are optional on the Discovery), plus GIRARD roof-mounted awnings, solid hardwood cabinetry, solid-surface countertops, Ultrafabrics upholstery on all furniture, and a fourth décor package (Eucalyptus). The Discovery is offered in three floor plans (38K, 38N, 38W) starting at 38 feet 8 inches. The LXE is offered in four floor plans (40G, 40M, 44B, 44S) starting at 40 feet 1 inch. Pick the Discovery for a shorter, entry-priced Fleetwood diesel pusher. Pick the LXE for higher power, upgraded suspension, and a longer standard feature list.
