The 2018 Tiffin Phaeton 40IH is a premium Class A diesel motorhome designed for travelers who refuse to compromise on luxury or storage. Built on Tiffin’s proprietary Powerglide chassis, this model is celebrated for its "flat-floor" design, which eliminates the step up into the bedroom and significantly expands the exterior basement storage capacity.

Performance & Chassis
