A Complete Guide to the Classification of Common RVs. Which Type of RV is Suitable for You?
I. Self-propelled Type A RV
This type of RV is the absolute kingpin in the RV world. Generally, it is modified from a large bus or a truck. The Golden Dragon large bus RVs, German MAN RVs, and Mercedes-Benz Actros RVs that you often see online belong to this category. However, with a price tag that easily reaches several million or even tens of millions of yuan, it is destined to be something that is beyond our reach.
II. Self-propelled Type B RV
This type of RV is usually modified from a large MPV. Generally, the body structure is not altered. The space is slightly smaller than that of a Type C RV. A standard Type B RV also has facilities such as a bed, a living room, a kitchen, and a bathroom. The layout is the same as that of a Type C RV, except that it lacks the overcab bed.

The width of a Type B RV is generally 20-30 centimeters narrower than that of a Type C RV, and its height is usually around 2.8 meters. Compared with the height of a Type C RV, which generally exceeds 3 meters, it has the advantages of being better able to pass through cities and park vehicles. There is even a type of RV with a circular sofa at the rear, which can temporarily serve as a vehicle for business receptions.

This type of RV is more suitable for light use. It is very inconvenient to cook in the kitchen, and generally, there is no bathroom. However, it is extremely convenient to enter and exit underground parking garages, and there is no need to worry about height restrictions. It can also be used as a daily commuting vehicle. It is suitable for taking family members on trips during weekends and holidays.
III. Self-propelled Type C RV
This is the most commonly seen type of RV. The interior space of the vehicle is quite large, and it is the vehicle with the largest space that can be driven with a Class C driver's license. It is fully equipped, and it can even have a refrigerator, an air conditioner, and a washing machine. There is an induction cooker built into the kitchen, and a pull-out kitchen can also be installed outside. It is spacious enough for a whole family to live outside for a long time. We can see that many people who travel outside for a long time drive this type of RV.

The commonly seen Type C RVs we know usually have a large overcab. There is also a type with a small overcab. It lacks an overcab bed compared to the large-overcab type, but its height is reduced, which gives it better passability and also lower wind resistance.
