Keystone Passport Expands Classics Lineup with New 2026 Floorplans at Kunes RV of Chicagoland

For years, the Keystone Passport has been one of the most popular lightweight travel trailers on the road. Families, couples, and weekend adventurers love it for its balance of towability, smart design, and everyday affordability. Now, for the 2026 model year, Keystone is doubling down on those strengths by introducing an exciting lineup of new Passport Classics floorplans—each one crafted to meet the diverse needs of Chicagoland’s camping community.

At Kunes RV of Chicagoland, we’re proud to be your local home for Keystone RVs. With six brand-new floorplans debuting for 2026, there’s a Passport option for nearly every type of traveler—from solo adventurers who want a simple, compact trailer, to families who need space for kids, pets, and gear.

Let’s take a closer look at what’s new in the Passport Classics lineup for 2026.

The 160BHC is a small but mighty bunkhouse model designed for families who want maximum sleeping space in a lightweight package. This floorplan proves you don’t need a large trailer to enjoy the convenience of bunks. Perfect for young families just starting their RV journey, the 160BHC delivers a practical setup with room for everyone at a budget-friendly price point.

If you’re looking for a lightweight travel trailer that still feels open and functional, the 160RBC offers a clever blend of compact size and comfortable living. With its balanced layout, this floorplan gives you just the right mix of kitchen, seating, and sleeping space—all while staying easy to tow and easy on the wallet.

The 180RBC expands on the 160RBC concept with a bit more elbow room. For couples or small families who want the ease of a compact trailer but need more space for longer trips, this floorplan provides the perfect middle ground. It’s ideal for Chicagoland weekenders who enjoy local campgrounds, as well as longer road trips across the Midwest.

Social campers will love the 190RDC, which features a rear-dinette configuration that opens up the living space. This makes it a fantastic choice for travelers who enjoy having friends or family gather inside for meals, games, or rainy-day relaxation. It’s proof that a small trailer can still feel welcoming and comfortable for groups.

Food lovers, take note: the 210RKC prioritizes kitchen space without sacrificing comfort. Perfect for campers who enjoy preparing meals on the road, this floorplan provides an expanded cooking area with smart storage solutions. For couples who like to cook together or families who prefer homemade meals while traveling, this model stands out as a practical and enjoyable option.

The largest of the new 2026 Classics, the 260BHC is a true family hauler. With expanded bunk space and a roomy layout, it’s designed for those who want to travel with a full house—kids, friends, and even pets. Larger families in Chicagoland will appreciate the sleeping capacity and storage without moving up into a heavier, more expensive trailer.

Travel trailers are about more than specs—they’re about lifestyle. Here in Chicagoland, families and adventurers are looking for RVs that are practical for weekend getaways to Wisconsin Dells, efficient for longer trips up to Michigan’s Upper Peninsula, and compact enough to tow without needing a heavy-duty truck. The Keystone Passport Classics lineup checks all of those boxes.

Some of the biggest advantages include:

• Lightweight Towability – Many Passport models can be towed with midsize SUVs and half-ton trucks, making them accessible to more buyers.
• Family-Friendly Options – With bunkhouse and convertible sleeping spaces, kids, guests, and even pets have a place to rest after a day of adventure.
• Smart Storage Solutions – Keystone engineers maximize every inch of space, ensuring you don’t have to leave gear behind.
• Budget-Conscious Pricing – These new layouts were designed to give first-time buyers and growing families an affordable way to enjoy RV life.

For Chicagoland adventurers, that means fewer barriers to hitting the road and more opportunities to explore everything from local state parks to cross-country destinations.

One of the best parts about owning a Passport is how versatile it is for travel. From our location here at Kunes RV of Chicagoland, some of the most popular RV destinations are just a short drive away:

• Illinois Beach State Park (Zion, IL) – A perfect weekend getaway for families with smaller Passport models.
• Indiana Dunes National Park (Porter, IN) – Just over an hour away, offering stunning beaches and hiking trails.
• Wisconsin Dells, WI – Family fun capital of the Midwest, easily accessible with bunkhouse layouts like the 260BHC.
• Door County, WI – A charming summer escape where compact models like the 160BHC shine in smaller campgrounds.
• Upper Peninsula of Michigan – Ideal for extended trips with layouts like the 210RKC or 260BHC that give you space and comfort for long stays.

Whether you’re sticking close to home or planning cross-country adventures, the 2026 Passport Classics lineup provides the flexibility and affordability Chicagoland campers are looking for.
