2025 Thor Motor Coach Chateau 28Z, Description Other rv_camper
The Thor Motor Coach Chateau 28Z is a Class C gas motorhome built on the Ford® E-450 chassis, designed to deliver residential comfort, family-friendly space, and straightforward drivability in a mid-length coach. It blends the maneuverability of a smaller RV with the expanded living capacity of a full-featured motorhome.
Powered by a 7.3L V8 gas engine producing about 325 horsepower, paired with a 6-speed TorqShift automatic transmission, the 28Z is engineered for reliable highway performance and consistent towing capability.
The 28Z floorplan features a single slide-out that expands the main living area, creating a more open interior while maintaining a manageable overall length of about 30 feet. The layout typically includes a rear private bedroom, a central bathroom, and a front living area with cab-over sleeping space, allowing it to accommodate up to 8 people depending on configuration.
Inside, the coach is designed for practical, residential-style use with a central kitchen featuring a cooktop, microwave, refrigerator, and storage cabinetry, along with a dinette and sofa arrangement for dining and relaxation. The cab-over bunk and convertible seating areas add flexible sleeping capacity for families or group travel.
The exterior is equipped for extended travel convenience with features such as power awning coverage, exterior storage compartments, and optional outdoor utility setups, supporting both campsite living and road-trip flexibility.
With its combination of Ford E-Series durability, family-oriented layout, and Class C versatility, the Chateau 28Z is designed for travelers who want a balance of comfort, sleeping capacity, and easy drivability in a mid-size motorhome.
