RV Industry Association (RVIA) is reporting that RV wholesale shipments, including tow-behind campers, park models, and full-size recreational vehicles, are projected to climb slightly by year-end to 337,000 units for full-year 2025. RVIA expects growth to continue in 2026, with unit sales reaching the mid-300,000-unit range.
The report was published in the Fall 2025 edition of RV RoadSigns, the quarterly forecast prepared by ITR Economics for RVIA.
“RV shipments are expected to continue to rise through the end of this year and into next,” said RVIA President & CEO Craig Kirby. “Economic uncertainty and elevated borrowing costs continue to be headwinds, but factors for growth are improving as inflation eases, financing becomes more affordable, and restocking picks up. The path may be uneven, but the long-term fundamentals of RVing remain sound with manufacturers and dealers well positioned to meet demand with innovative, value-driven products.”
The new forecast projects 2025 RV shipments to range between 320,400 to 353,500 units, with a median of 337,000, while 2026 shipments are expected to range between 332,400 to 366,100 units, with a median of 349,300 units in 2026.
