Airstream Tries a New Tactic: Build Something Accessible
"The World Traveler 22RB, as it's officially labeled (a nod to the 22-foot length and bed in the rear of the trailer), is new to North America after the model name debuted in Germany in August. As the RV industry continues to struggle in the U.S. after pandemic highs, Airstream seems to be introducing this trailer to court new buyers with a more affordable price point (starting at $63,800) and easy-to-tow design that may not require upgrading to a larger truck or SUV."
"For just $900 more than that 16-foot Bambi, the World Traveler offers a floor plan that's six feet longer, while also trimming the width slightly to make it easier to maneuver than other trailers of similar length. Despite its larger size, the gross vehicle weight rating of the World Traveler is just 4,500 pounds; Airstream notes "the design is compatible with a wide range of tow vehicles, including crossovers, pickups, and SUVs.""
Airstream introduced the World Traveler 22RB as a 22-foot travel trailer aimed at buyers who previously thought an Airstream was unaffordable. The model debuted in Germany and is new to North America, with a starting price of $63,800. The name denotes its 22-foot length and rear bed. The World Traveler trims width for easier maneuvering while offering a floor plan six feet longer than the Bambi 16RB. Its gross vehicle weight rating is 4,500 pounds, allowing towing by crossovers, pickups, and SUVs. The World Traveler is the second-most affordable classic Airstream model and undercuts similarly sized models on price.
