With the Class B motorhome being the smallest amongst its Class A and Class C counterparts, you may be wondering how much a Class B RV, or camper van can tow. While there are variances across motorhomes from different brands, a Class B motorhome can typically tow around 3,000 to 5,000 pounds. 

While the manufacturer or user’s manual of a particular model can provide the most accurate information regarding towing capacity, this is just a general idea of what you can expect out of a Class B RV.

Since Class B models are more compact and drive closer to a car or SUV, you likely wouldn’t need to tow an extra car if you were driving a Class A motorhome, for example. But if you’re looking to bring some ATVs or motorcycles on your next trip, your Class B motorhome is most likely up for the job.

How Do I Tow with a Class B Motorhome?

In order to properly tow with your Class B motorhome, you may need some specific equipment to get the job done, including but not limited to:

  • Trailer hitch
  • Electrical connections
  • Four down towing accessories
  • Tow dolly equipment
  • Car hauler equipment
