Prevost introduced its all-new, next-generation H3-45 during the 2023 UMA EXPO in Orlando, Fla.

The redesigned H3-45 features a series of engineering advances that deliver improved fuel efficiency, an enhanced driver experience, and comfort for passengers, according to the company's news release.

“The H3-45 is our flagship and has for the past two decades set the standard in the industry,” said Prevost president Francois Tremblay. “We’ve re-engineered all aspects of the coach in order to create a best-in-class vehicle that is an obvious standout. The interior, which has been completely redesigned, was inspired by the automobile and aerospace industries. Everything we executed on the H3-45 we did with the user experience in mind.” 

The H3-45 made its public debut at the UMA Motorcoach Expo as part of a year-long introduction of the updated coach.

The coach’s new aerodynamic shape that makes it up to 12% more fuel efficient. Another advantage is less soil dispersion, resulting in better mirror visibility for the driver and an overall cleaner exterior.

For drivers, the H3-45 features an intuitive dash featuring a full-color digital and analog instrument cluster and push-button start.

Following UMA, the H3-45 will be on a months-long debut tour. The coach will be at the RV SuperShow in Tampa, Jan. 18-22; IMG Maintenance & Safety Forum in Detroit, Feb. 2-4; ABA Marketplace & BusWorld in Detroit, Feb. 4-7; Motorhome Expo in West Palm Beach, Florida, Feb. 8-9; Chauffeur Driven Show in Las Vegas, March 5-8; and OTE in Toronto, April 18.

“2023 is an exciting time for Prevost,” said Kevin Dawson, commercial operations VP. “The all-new H3-45 couples the quality, reliability, and serviceability that have been hallmarks of Prevost for nearly 100 years with advanced engineering innovations that have been implemented with the customer in mind.”
