Winnebago Industries‘ Specialty Vehicle Division reveals its updated Accessibility Enhanced (AE) RV line for 2021. Upgraded to support consumer and dealer preferences further, the Inspire AE and Adventurer 30T AE 2021 models feature standard wheelchair tie-downs, platform wheelchair lifts, and expanded hallways and bathrooms.
In addition to the product upgrades, Winnebago also announces a dealer partnership for the 2021 model year products with La Mesa RV to carry the AE units exclusively.
“This year we have seen a drastic change in the way people vacation, and with RV travel on the rise, La Mesa RV wants to provide model options to all of our customers across the country, including those with mobility limitations.
“We are excited to work with Winnebago and enable more people to experience the joys of traveling with a modified, accessible RV and very little wait time.”

New Floor Plans and Features
The new 2021 AE floor plans reflect the most commonly requested design elements such as expanded hallway and bathroom areas, accessible controls for lights and RV systems, remote controls for the wheelchair lift and door, and more. The new Inspire is a 35-foot Class A diesel, providing abundant space and power. The Adventurer 30T AE is a 31-foot Class A offering and includes a sleeper sofa to increase sitting areas, a roll-under sink, and pedestal tables.
“As a company dedicated to innovation, Winnebago is always looking to improve our Accessibility Enhanced RVs. For the 2021 AE line, we are excited to offer two class A platforms with so many accessible features.”
— Robert Kim, Director of Winnebago’s Specialty Vehicle Division
Winnebago’s 2021 AE line gives wheelchair travelers comfort and privacy that not only make travel enjoyable but day-to-day living more effortless. Almost every room in the 2021 AE RVs is enhanced to meet a person’s requirements with mobility limitations. These changes and enhancements require changing approximately 40% of the features compared to a conventional motorhome, Winnebago continues in a media release.
“Winnebago takes great pride in the design of our AE units. We test real-world scenarios with wheelchairs and other equipment to ensure optimum usability to enhance the RV travel experience for these individuals and their families.”
— Winnebago Specialty Vehicle Division Director of Sales Jennifer Butters
The 2021 Inspire will be on display at the 2021 Florida RV Supershow on January 13-17, 2021, at the Florida State Fairgrounds in Tampa, Fla, per the release.
