Coachmen Beyond 22C vs Jayco Solstice 21L

Coachmen · Class B

The difference that matters

Drive and cooking fuel define the Beyond 22C. It sits on an AWD Ford Transit 350 HD with the 3.5L EcoBoost V6, and it carries no propane at all: a Truma Combi handles heat and hot water, alongside an induction cooktop and a compressor refrigerator. A 2,000 W Victron inverter and Garmin multiplex screens run the coach, and it is Starlink-ready.

The Solstice 21L shares the EcoBoost engine and a 2,800 W gas generator, but uses AGM house batteries and a portable induction cooktop. Its 11,000 lb GVWR is 640 lb higher than the Beyond's 10,360.

Tanks are similar in total: the Beyond holds 27 gal fresh against 24, while the Solstice has the larger black tank, 16 gal against 12. Solar sits around 200 W on each. The Beyond sleeps two on twin beds.

Coachmen Beyond 22C: Gravel and winter roads, for couples who want an all-electric, propane-free van.
Jayco Solstice 21L: Van buyers who want more GVWR headroom and a bigger black tank in a 22 ft gas coach
