About the Byron
The Winnebago Byron is a motorhome on a Mercedes-Benz Sprinter cab chassis, 7.7 metres long, that sleeps six adults. You can walk through from the driver's cab into the living area. The dinette and lounge both convert to double beds, and a third double sits over the cab.
Who is it for?
Winnebago says it suits families and varied travel needs. With fewer people on board, the over-cab bed lets you leave one living area set up overnight.

About Winnebago
Winnebago sells motorhomes and a campervan in Australia, built on Mercedes-Benz Sprinter and Iveco Daily base vehicles. The range runs from a two-berth Sprinter campervan up to six-berth motorhomes. Every model has single-piece composite panels in the roof, walls and floor, and Winnebago says they help keep water out.

Delivery and freight
If there's no dealer in your state, most brands deliver Australia-wide. You can also collect from the factory. Interstate freight is a real cost, often a few thousand dollars, and it climbs with distance, so factor it in before you commit.
