Nexus RVs For Sale
Nexus RV motorhomes for sale at Motor Home Specialist, the #1 Volume Selling Motor Home Dealer in the World and the #1 Nexus RV dealer in the world. MHSRV stocks new Nexus Super C diesel, Class C gas, and Class B+ motorhomes with industry-leading discount pricing on every Nexus for sale, well below MSRP, so Nexus buyers save thousands compared to other dealers.
Nexus RV was founded in 2010 by Claude Donati during the depths of the Great Recession, with a vision focused on building motorhomes around three principles: integrity, structural strength, and direct customer relationships. The company started as a factory-direct manufacturer in Indiana, where buyers would come to the Nexus facility with their own floor plan and color ideas and the Nexus team would build the coach to spec. The original Phantom and Viper lines were born out of that custom approach. In 2018, Nexus moved to a dealer network model to expand production capacity, but the founder-led, customer-centric philosophy has remained. Nexus is privately held, which means the company answers to customers and dealers rather than to public shareholders.
Today Nexus builds across three motorhome categories: Super C diesel, Class C gas, and Class B+ gas. The Super C diesel lineup spans five different chassis platforms (more than any other Super C builder), giving Nexus shoppers an unusually wide range of tow ratings, suspension setups, and engine choices in a single brand. The Class C gas and Class B+ gas lineups extend the Nexus build philosophy to more accessible price points, with the same signature steel-cage construction that anchors the brand's reputation.
The Nexus RV Lineup
Nexus Super C diesel motorhomes anchor the brand. The Nexus Ghost is the flagship of the lineup, built on the International MV air-ride chassis with the 360-horsepower Cummins diesel, full air brakes, a 20,000-pound hitch, and the Allison 3000 Series transmission. The Nexus Wraith sits below the Ghost on the Freightliner S2RV chassis with the Cummins ISB 6.7L diesel, rear air-ride suspension, and a more accessible price point. The Nexus Maximus takes the Super C category to heavier-duty territory on the Ford F-650 chassis with the 6.7L Power Stroke V8 diesel and a 50,000-pound GCWR. The Nexus Rebel is the brand's 4x4 Super C, built on the International CV or Chevrolet Silverado 6500 chassis with the Duramax diesel, designed for forest service roads, dispersed camping, and snow country routes that 2-wheel-drive coaches can't handle.
On the Class C gas side, the Nexus Phantom is the brand's standard Class C, built on the Ford E-450 chassis with the 7.3L V-8 gas engine, offering Nexus's signature steel-cage construction at a more accessible price point than the diesel-powered Super C lineup. The Nexus Phantom Sport is the compact version of the Phantom, with sub-26-foot floor plans geared toward couples and small families who want an easier-to-drive and easier-to-park footprint.
The Nexus Viper rounds out the lineup as the brand's Class B+ gas motorhome, built on the Ford E-350 chassis with the 7.3L V-8 gas engine. It hits a hybrid position in the market with a smaller, narrower, lower body than a typical Class C but with slide-outs and a cab-over entertainment center that traditional Class B camper vans typically lack.
Nexus Composite Steel: The Brand's Defining Differentiator
Every Nexus motorhome, from the Class B+ Viper through the flagship Ghost, uses the same signature construction approach. Nexus calls it Composite Steel construction, and it's the brand's primary structural differentiator in the motorhome segment. The body is built around a high-strength low-alloy (HSLA) steel cage that runs throughout the coach, in place of the aluminum framing common across most of the RV industry. Nexus rates this approach up to 72% stronger than traditional aluminum-framed RV construction, with corresponding benefits in long-term water damage resistance, reduced chassis flex, improved thermal and sound insulation, and increased structural rigidity.
The steel cage pairs with one-piece gelcoat fiberglass sidewalls and a one-piece fiberglass roof rather than the multi-panel construction common in the industry. Nexus uses a composite substrate in place of wood inside the wall and roof assemblies, which eliminates a common point of long-term moisture damage in older RV construction. The floor is a laminated steel-framed assembly, and the entire body is vacuum-bonded in a climate-controlled facility at the Nexus plant. Nexus is one of the few builders that produces its own sidewalls, floors, and roofs in-house rather than sourcing them from third-party suppliers, which gives the company tighter quality control over the structural envelope of every coach.
A Customer-Centric Company in a Publicly Traded Industry
Nexus RV occupies an unusual position in the modern motorhome industry. Most large RV builders have consolidated under publicly traded holding companies, with operations spread across many brands and quarterly earnings expectations driving production decisions. Nexus is privately held and founder-led, which the company says lets it focus on customer satisfaction and product engineering rather than stockholder returns. That structure shows up in how the brand approaches innovation: in 2024 the Ghost 38DS won the RV Business Must See RV award for innovation; in 2025 the Maximus 34MX won the same award, making it two years in a row. In 2026 Nexus debuted the Ghost 39DS at the Tampa RV Show with what the brand calls the first Super C with an outside patio accessible from the master suite. The company has also been recognized with the RVWA Champion of Women award for its leadership in empowering women in the RV industry.

Is Nexus a good motorhome brand?
Nexus has built a strong reputation in the motorhome segment around its signature HSLA steel cage construction and its customer-centric, privately held company structure. The brand's innovation has been recognized with back-to-back RV Business Must See RV awards (the Ghost 38DS in 2024 and the Maximus 34MX in 2025) and the RVWA Champion of Women award. Cross-shop alternatives in the Super C diesel segment include Dynamax, Renegade, and Newmar Supreme Aire. Cross-shop alternatives in the Class C gas segment include Thor, Coachmen, Forest River, and Winnebago at similar price points.
Does Nexus build Super C motorhomes?
Yes, Super C diesel motorhomes are the anchor of the Nexus lineup. Nexus offers an unusually wide Super C range across five different chassis platforms: the Ghost on the International MV (air brakes, air-ride suspension), the Wraith on the Freightliner S2RV (rear air-ride), the Maximus on the Ford F-650 (50,000-pound GCWR), and the Rebel 4x4 on the International CV or Chevy Silverado 6500. That breadth of chassis options across a single brand is uncommon in the Super C segment.
Does Nexus build 4x4 motorhomes?
Yes. The Nexus Rebel is the brand's 4x4 Super C diesel motorhome, built on the International CV or Chevrolet Silverado 6500 chassis with the 350-horsepower Duramax diesel. The Rebel is designed for adventure-focused buyers who take their coach onto forest service roads, dispersed camping spots, snow country, and inclement-weather routes that 2-wheel-drive Super C platforms can't handle. The optional Extreme Package upgrades the Rebel with 400-amp-hour lithium batteries, 800 watts of solar, the Alpha Series grille guard, blackout wheels with all-terrain tires, and the Commandore all-terrain front bumper for serious off-pavement use.
Which Nexus motorhome should I buy?
For experienced motorhome owners stepping up to a flagship Super C with diesel pusher-style ride quality and air-ride suspension, the Ghost on the International MV chassis is the top of the lineup. For buyers who want a Super C diesel at a more accessible entry price, the Wraith on the Freightliner S2RV chassis is the right starting point. For commercial-grade chassis components, heavy-duty hauling, and stacker trailer towing, the Maximus on the Ford F-650 chassis is the heavy-duty option. For adventure-focused, off-pavement, dispersed camping, and snow country travel, the Rebel 4x4 is the right choice. For traveling couples and families who want Nexus's steel-cage construction at a gas-powered Class C price point, the Phantom or the more compact Phantom Sport covers that range. For shoppers cross-shopping a Class B camper van against a compact Class C, the Viper Class B+ hits the hybrid middle ground with slide-outs and a cab-over entertainment center. Your salesperson at Motor Home Specialist can walk through the specific differences to match the right Nexus to your travel use case.
Does Nexus still build the Bentley, Maybach, Triumph, or Verrado?
No. The Bentley Class A diesel pusher, the Maybach Class A gas motorhome, the Triumph Class C, and the Verrado Super C have all been discontinued.
