The Durango D311BHD fifth wheel trailer from KZ RV has taken home the Top Debut Award of 2022 from RV Business. The innovative towable holds the distinction of being the first fifth wheel in the industry to come equipped with a hatchback door, granting unprecedented access to the camper’s interior space.
A mainstay in the KZ line-up for years, the Durango is offered in seven different floor plans, although the new D311BHD model is the only one that includes the hatchback. Raising the door at the rear of the trailer reveals a more versatile and utilitarian rear space, with room for storage, bunkbeds, or other equipment. The hatch also makes this model a great option for tailgating or entertaining at the campsite.

The Durango D311BHD is a new design that will appeal to many purposes while traveling,” KZ president Aram Koltookian says in a press release announcing the award. “The quality and level of care that goes into each one of the KZ products is immeasurable, and the Top Debut Award is greatly appreciated and inspiring to our team!”

KZ general manager Brent Froman adds, “We listened to our customers as they looked for more versatility in a full-size RV, and I think the D311BHD floorplan supports their needs. It’s inspiring to see the engineering and production teams collaborated to develop this unique solution.”
The Durango B311BHD with the hatchback is available to order now. For more information, visit the KZ RV website.
