2024’s Hottest Parts & Accessories

hen it comes to new product debuts for the RV industry, there are no better venues than the annual winter shows staged by the major distributors responsible for supplying the industry’s dealers and independent parts and service facilities with new and replacement parts and accessories — and when it comes to distributor shows, none is larger or has more impact than the program staged by NTP-STAG.

This year’s program, EXPO 2024, presented by Airxcel, was even bigger; the event marked the first-time collaboration with SeaWide Distribution, introducing prominent marine suppliers alongside the RV industry’s premier product manufacturers.

And, while the event was highlighted by a number of thought-provoking addresses — including from author Sterling Hawkins and basketball legend Bill Walton as well as a performance by American Idol winner Noah Thompson — products were the real stars of the show. Covered in length by RVEnthusiast’s partner, RVBusiness, here are many of the new and proven popular components that attracted attention at the EXPO — and that you will be seeing at your local RV parts emporium this camping season.
