    Press Release


    Oct 6, 2022

    AEONrv, manufacturer of the first true all-season, electric cabin, off-road capable, high-tech and modern recreational vehicle, today announced the shipment of its first production unit amid strong industry interest and excitement.

    “We’re delighted to deliver our first AEONrv production unit to our first customer who was attracted to its high-quality build, advanced capabilities, and modern design,” said Jim Ritchie, CEO of AEONrv. “We’ve been enormously pleased with the strong customer feedback and business traction we’ve achieved since introducing our prototype at Overland Expo Mountain West 2021 and have great plans to grow our business going forward.”

    Strong Business Traction 

    • Secured deposits on 70+ units, for approximate projected revenue of $14 million.
    • Raised $1M+ in capital from outside investors.
    • Built prototype, shipped first production unit, and began build of next three units.

    AEONrv is well on its way to achieving its mission to change how RVs are built, delivered, and supported using the latest advancements in modern technology and sustainability. “We’ve designed and built AEONrv to provide greater capabilities than traditional RVs,” said Lars Severin, CTO of AEONrv. “And we’ll continue to make optimizations to give our customers the best possible product experience. In fact, our first production unit includes 40+ improvements vs. the prototype based on customer feedback and our own product testing.”

    Advanced Technology & Design 

    • All Season — superior insulation and highly efficient air conditioning/heating systems make it the ideal year-round RV.
    • Off Road Capable — built to enjoy the wilderness and live off-grid for up to one week without RV park hookups.
    • Green Technology — electric/solar-powered cabin that we believe is up to 10x more thermally efficient than traditional RVs.
    • Modern Design — built like a high-end yacht with stronger, lighter, more durable marine-grade components.
    • Technology Focused — real-time software monitoring, integration, support, and controls, including climate controls for pet safety.

    AEONrv has a bold vision to build something innovative in the RV space and has set big goals. “Our plan is to raise more outside capital to expand our workforce, move into a bigger production facility, and significantly ramp up production. We also will continue to develop strong relationships with our vendor partners,” said Jim Ritchie. “Our biggest objective will be securing enough transit chassis to meet demand, so our relationship with Ford, as with all our vendors, is important. We’re excited about what’s ahead and delivering a great product to our customers.”

  • Wingamm Debuts Oasis 540 in Retail Stores This November Launching at Santa Monica Place

    Wingamm Debuts Oasis 540 in Retail Stores This November Launching at Santa Monica Place

    [ad_1]

    Retail Display Is the Next Frontier for Luxury Motorhomes, Providing Customers With an Experience in Purchasing

    Press Release


    Nov 12, 2021

    Wingamm, the leading provider of luxury compact RVs in Europe, which recently announced its expansion to the US market, will debut their Oasi 540 at Santa Monica Place in Santa Monica, California, and Walt Whitman Shops in Long Island, NY. The Wingamm Oasi 540 will be the first of many compact Wingamm RV’s to take the retail-first strategy and display in high foot-traffic locations in high-end malls.

    Santa Monica Place, located just steps away from the Pacific Ocean and iconic Santa Monica Pier, is a unique, outdoor shopping destination that is home to luxury brands including Louis Vuitton, Nike, Tiffany & Co., and more, as well as a collection of specialty shops, digitally native brands and inspired dining concepts.

    “It is a dream come true to be able to bring Wingamm to the United States, and I can not think of a better place to debut it than in California, home to many RV lovers and to one of the most beautiful, beachside luxury malls in the country. The TM Motorhome Sales team and I look forward to having customers interact with the Oasi 540 and see for themselves just how special of a motorhome it truly is,” said Lorena Turri, CEO of Wingamm.

    Demand for the Wingamm Oasi 540 has already skyrocketed creating an extensive waitlist since the Company first announced its plan to bring the vehicle to the U.S. in July. The Oasi 540 is the first Micro Class RV – vehicles less than 18 feet long that can sleep four people and with a full indoor bathroom – to be available for sale in the United States. Wingamm’s expansion to the U.S. marks a pivotal moment in the company’s 45-year history, after becoming the leader in Europe and top performer in Asia.

    “When it comes to sales, the world has changed. Most people buy day-to-day items online but there are some luxury products that you just have to see for yourself and experience to truly appreciate and that is where retail remains king. This was the case when Apple first debuted their iPhones in retail, Tesla unveiled its first model vehicle, and Peloton showcased their stationary bike. We believe the Oasi 540 is a one-of-a-kind product and like other innovators, we trust the consumer to experience and adopt it as their primary choice when considering a motorhome,” says Tony Diamond, Co-Owner of TM Motorhome Sales.

    Standout features of the Wingamm include its custom fiberglass monocoque shell which not only gives the Oasi 540 its distinct sleek look and compact size but allows for innovation in the design and functionality, particularly in the bedroom, bathroom, sewage system, and climate controls. In addition, the Oasi 540 is equipped with a satellite to make remote access concerns a thing of the past.

    “Our customers come to Santa Monica Place because they know they will be treated to the best possible consumer experience and be among the first to see the most innovative, luxury products and technology on the market. We can not think of a better home to debut the Oasi 540 and look forward to showcasing it to our customers over the next six weeks,” Stephanie Eglin, General Manager, Santa Monica Place.

    The Wingamm Oasi 540 will be on display starting Nov. 15 through Dec. 15.

    Santa Monica Place will be among many luxury retail destinations showcasing the Wingamm. Other confirmed locations include Walt Whitman Shops and a nationwide rollout by 2022.

  • New Inflatable Skirt Product for RV Owners is Game Changer in the Camping and RV Market

    New Inflatable Skirt Product for RV Owners is Game Changer in the Camping and RV Market

    [ad_1]

    AirSkirts™ is a patent-pending, first of its kind inflatable RV skirting solution that saves customer’s time, energy and money while protecting their RVs from weather damage.

    Press Release



    updated: Jan 21, 2020

    An innovative new product is set to hit the RV accessories market on Jan. 24. AirSkirts, a cold-weather protection solution for RVs, tiny homes, and more, is set to make its debut at the Northeast RV and Camping Show on Jan. 24 in Hartford, Conn. The AirSkirts system provides an easier, more cost-effective, and less time-consuming skirting solution to help protect RVs, trailers, vans, other vehicles and even tiny homes during cold months, preventing frozen pipes and hoses and other costly damage.

    AirSkirts utilizes the natural insulating properties of air to help protect RVs and other vehicles that need to be used during cold weather or otherwise protected. When an RV is parked, the underside is exposed to the open environment. Due to this, burst water pipes and other system failures are common, even on high-end RVs. This outside exposure also allows leaves and trash to easily become trapped under the vehicle creating a perfect home for unwanted critters. AirSkirts’ insulating properties also prevent energy dissipation and cold floors; this stops heating systems from working overtime and wasting valuable energy. 

    Unlike other products on the market such as Styrofoam, PVC sheeting, or customized fabricated skirts, AirSkirts is easy to install and cost-effective. In under 30 minutes, users can inflate the AirSkirts system, which is comprised of heavy-duty, long-lasting material and military-grade valves. The system features reinforced seams and material that are resistant to tears, punctures and extreme weather. When not in use, AirSkirts can be rolled and stored in a carry bag.

    Because of strong yet flexible construction, AirSkirts can easily conform to a variety of sizes and shapes and can account for drains, pipes and hoses on whatever vehicle it is being used to protect. In addition to its innovative construction, the product provides an attractive way to protect a parked vehicle.

    “We are thrilled to offer AirSkirts to consumers looking for a practical solution to protect their hard-earned investments such as RVs, trailers, vans, and even tiny homes,” said Jim Phelan, Founder and Managing Director. “AirSkirts is an easy to use system that helps ward off damage caused by the elements at a more attractive price point than other weatherization systems on the market. We’ve spent years listening to the needs of RV owners everywhere and utilized our own experiences as campers to deliver a product that we truly believe will be a gamechanger in the industry.”

    AirSkirts will be available to consumers for purchase on Jan. 24, 2020 and can be purchased at www.airskirts.com. To learn more about the patent-pending AirSkirts, visit www.airskirts.com or contact Jim Phelan, Founder and Managing Director, at 833-475-4787 or email jim@airskirts.com.
