If you’ve spent any time researching luxury motorhomes, you’ve likely come across Newmar. What many buyers don’t immediately see is what truly separates Newmar from the rest of the Class A market — and why customers from across Western Canada make the trip to Penticton to purchase one.
After more than 45 years in the RV industry, our team has worked with nearly every major manufacturer. We recommend Newmar for one reason: the product consistently delivers. Not because of a dealer relationship — but because it stands up where it matters most.
Built for the Long Haul
Newmar motorhomes are engineered with a full-welded aluminum cage frame, rather than wood-based construction that can absorb moisture and deteriorate over time. That difference is especially important in British Columbia, where coastal humidity and sharp temperature swings through the mountain regions can quietly accelerate wear in lesser-built coaches.
Every Newmar is built in Nappanee, Indiana, and undergoes road testing before it leaves the factory. That’s not an industry standard — it’s a Newmar standard.
Discovering Excellence in Every Detail
Newmar’s reputation isn’t built on structure alone. It’s carried through every detail of every coach they create.
From smoother handling on winding highways to stronger, more resilient frames, Newmar has continually refined the motorhome experience. Step inside, and you’ll find thoughtfully designed interiors that feel less like a vehicle and more like a carefully crafted retreat on wheels.
Each coach is meticulously tested, ensuring confidence from the first mile to the hundredth thousand. And when you’re out on the road, you’re never truly on your own — a dedicated Newmar representative is just a call away, backed by their industry-leading customer service. –That’s the Newmar Difference
Why Canadian Buyers Specifically Benefit
Canadian RV owners face a different reality than many U.S. buyers. Longer distances between destinations, fewer service centres in remote areas, more demanding storage conditions, and sensitivity to exchange rates all factor into ownership.
Newmar addresses these challenges through a strong commitment to customer service and long-term support.
At Midtown RV, that standard is reflected in our track record. We’ve earned the Newmar Customer Service Award every year since its inception in 2003 — recognition that requires maintaining a customer satisfaction score of 90 percent or higher.
When you purchase a Newmar through us, you’re not just buying a motorhome. You’re not just getting the coach — you’re getting a service relationship built on that standard.
The Lineup
Newmar offers coaches across a range of configurations to match how Canadians actually travel:
- Dutch Star — the flagship diesel pusher. Available in both diesel and gas, with layouts from 40 to 45 feet. known for its balance of luxury and performance. A top choice for extended travel and full-time RVing.
- King Aire — Newmar’s most refined coach, featuring premium materials, advanced systems, and top-tier craftsmanship throughout.
- Bay Star & Bay Star Sport — Gas-powered options that offer accessibility without stepping away from Newmar’s build standards.
- London Aire — tag axle construction, designed for extended living. Rare in Canada and one of the most capable coaches on the road.
