Discover adventure made easy with the new 2026 Thor Motor Coach Rize 18M, a purpose-built Class B gas camper van that delivers compact drivability, efficient systems, and thoughtful living features without sacrificing capability or comfort. Designed for spontaneous travel and everyday use, this nimble van makes every trip more enjoyable and functional.
Power & Chassis Performance
The Rize 18M rides on a Ram ProMaster 1500 chassis with a 9-speed automatic transmission and front-wheel drive, delivering smooth handling and agile maneuverability for city streets and winding highways alike. Powered by a 276-hp Pentastar V6 gasoline engine paired with 250?lb-ft of torque, it balances performance with everyday drivability.
Exterior Features & Practical Design
With a compact length of 17.92?ft, width of 6.67?ft, and height of 9.42?ft, the Rize 18M is designed to fit in standard parking spaces and navigate tight campground roads. The exterior includes a 10-ft power-retractable Thule awning for shade and outdoor living, exterior shower hookup for quick cleanups, and a standard rear hitch ready for bikes or lightweight cargo.
Interior Comfort & Layout
Inside, the well-planned floorplan makes the most of every inch. You’ll find a front sitting area that converts into a comfortable sleeping space for up to two adults, with vinyl flooring throughout for easy cleaning. A pedestal table provides a place to eat or work. The interior height of 6.25?ft gives a comfortable feel without too much bulk, and the cozy living space flows efficiently from the cab to the rear.
Kitchen & Everyday Essentials
The Rize 18M includes a compact kitchen ideal for preparing meals on the road. Features include a two-burner cooktop, microwave, and compact electric refrigerator to keep food fresh. Ample counter space and cabinetry help keep dishes and pantry items organized.
Bathroom Convenience
Unlike many small camper vans, this model delivers a true bathroom at the rear with a curtain-style shower, cassette toilet, sink, vanity mirror, and a powered roof vent fan. The convenient configuration makes it easy to stay clean on multi-day trips without relying on campground facilities.
Tank Capacities & Utility Systems
The Rize 18M is built with practical utility in mind — it has a 24-gallon fuel tank, a fresh water capacity of 18?gallons, a 20-gallon gray tank, and a 5?gallon black tank, keeping you on the road longer between fills and dumps. Propane capacity sits around 5.8?gallons for cooking and hot water needs.
Comfort & Convenience Features
Standard comfort features include automatic air conditioning (11,000?BTU), furnace heat (14,300?BTU), swivel driver/passenger seats for flexible living space, rear backup camera, cruise control, and pre-wiring for solar if you choose to upgrade later.
Why Choose the 2026 Rize 18M
The Rize 18M stands out for its perfect blend of compact size, everyday practicality, and thoughtful design. Its efficient ProMaster chassis makes it easier to drive and park than larger motorhomes, while its full kitchen and bathroom systems keep you comfortable on extended trips. Whether you’re weekend camping, cross-country touring, or simply exploring regional destinations, this van is ready for life on the open road.
