Dublin, Oct. 23, 2023 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- The "The U.S. Recreational Vehicles Industry: RV Manufacturers, Dealers & RV Parks" report from Marketdata LLC has been added to ResearchAndMarkets.com's offering.

This new Marketdata study examines the $48 billion U.S. recreational vehicle industry and its three components: RV Manufacturers, RV Retail Dealers, and RV Parks & Campgrounds.

This comprehensive analysis covers the market's historical performance, spanning from the 1980s to 2020, offering insights into growth trends. It also provides estimates for the years 2021 and 2022, along with an outlook for 2023 and 2027, including forecasts and market structure.

Additionally, it delves into the key economic metrics of RV producers, RV dealers, and RV parks & campgrounds, highlighting factors such as top 50 market share, distinctions between single and multi-unit firms, and ratios based on company and establishment size, as well as state market potentials.

Furthermore, the report examines the profound impact of the Covid-19 pandemic on industry operations and sales. It explores customer demographics, major industry trends, and presents findings from industry surveys conducted by prominent organizations such as the RVIA, Winnebago, and others.

The RV industry achieved unprecedented milestones in 2021 despite the challenges posed by the Covid-19 pandemic. Consumers, in pursuit of safe vacation alternatives, drove the industry to record revenues and shipments. This marked a significant turning point, as a newer and younger demographic embraced the RV lifestyle.

However, the rapid growth experienced during this period proved to be unsustainable, resulting in a decline in RV shipments and sales in 2022. This downward trend extends into 2023, with reduced RV prices and demand. Nevertheless, this decline is being partially offset by an increased interest in RV rentals, used vehicles, and RV sharing.

The RV industry is known for its susceptibility to boom and bust cycles, as RVs are considered discretionary purchases that can be deferred or canceled. Looking ahead, the industry's prospects for the next four years remain positive, particularly as the number of RV parks continues to grow.

Additionally, this report provides in-depth profiles of key competitors in the industry, offering insights into their revenues and market positions. The major players covered include Thor Industries, Winnebago, Forest River Inc., Kamgrounds of America, Lazy Days, and Camping World Holdings.
