- Entegra Coach Gives Video Tour of Embark Electric Class A: We’ve been covering the Entegra Coach Embark range-extended electric motorhome since it was first announced and even got to see it in person in Tampa a few months back. But now, the company is giving RV enthusiasts a chance to check out the vehicle themselves through an extensive video tour of this exciting new coach. As a reminder, this rig rides on a chassis co-developed by Thor and Harbinger Motors that gives it an all-electric range of up to 105 miles. But the addition of a gas-powered generator extends that range to as much as 450 miles, all while delivering an upscale, very comfortable travel and camping experience. Check out the video above to see it for yourself.
