FOREST CITY, Iowa and HERSHEY, Pa., Sept. 4, 2019 /PRNewswire/ -- The Winnebago (NYSE: WGO) 2020 Accessibility-Enhanced motorhome line includes updated features and is being carried by two new dealers - Stoltzfus RV, and US Adventure RV, as well as existing dealers such as Lazydays RV. All 2020 models now feature air-assisted doors for wheelchair lifts. The new Intent 30R AE includes a power Murphy bed-sofa  providing additional living space when not in use, while the 2020 30T AE Adventurer boasts a sofa-bed, to accommodate additional passengers. While the updated AE 2020 line provides expanded accommodations for traveler freedom, the product also standardizes the purchasing process through dealers such as Stoltzfus RV, Lazydays RV, and US Adventure RV. The new line will be on display at America's Largest RV Show, September 11 - 15, 2019 at the Giant Center in Hershey, Pennsylvania.

With three standardized floor plans, the Winnebago AE motorhome line opens up a wider and richer world by allowing people in wheelchairs to travel with comfort and confidence.

"We strive to help our customers enjoy their recreational lifestyles with quality products and the highest levels of service. To build lasting relationships, we take responsibility for our customers' satisfaction throughout the sales and maintenance process - start to finish," states Stoltzfus President Bob Cox. "We are excited to partner with Winnebago to further benefit our customers by providing their Accessibility-Enhanced line for individuals in wheelchairs and with limited mobility."

"Since 1976, Lazydays has built a solid reputation for providing an outstanding customer experience; from exceptional service to product expertise and model variety," states Ron Fleming, Vice President & National General Manager of Lazydays RV. "When customers come to us, they are shopping for their home away from home. So, we are excited to be able to serve an even greater market and help those in wheelchairs and with limited mobility find their home away from home."

In addition to the new features, the Accessibility-Enhanced RV line includes floorplans that reflect the most commonly requested design elements such as:
