The TAB 400 is here. NüCamp RV debuted the prototype for the “next BIG thing in ultra-light-weight towable campers” at the Elkhart RV Open House. Reactions from dealers was ultra swift and ultra positive.
Here are just a few of the comments we heard from dealers as they toured this unique, modern camper at yesterday’s introduction, which was featured by the Small Trailers Enthusiast:
“This has everything!”
“Love the European styling.”
“Wow! A real bathroom.”
“I can sell these. People will love them.”
Facts about the TAB 400
Here are some of the features prompting positive comments about the new camper:
- Ample living space but still easy to tow at a target weight of 2,300-2,600 pounds. The TAB 400 is just three feet longer, one foot wider, and one foot taller than the standard TAB. At its apex, the TAB 400 has about 6’7″ of headroom.
- Separate bedroom area and eating areas.
- A fully equipped, roomy wet bath, complete with toilet, sink, shower, and built-in storage.
- A closet with clothes bar and shelves.
- 100 percent aluminum framing, ALDE and FROLI systems.
Inspiration, production for the TAB 400
The American version was in the design phase for 10 months and was inspired by Europe’s TAB 400. Therefore, nüCamp RV designed it in response to TAB fans and owners who had seen the European model and wanted to get their own, said Allen Miller, nüCamp’s director of R&D.
The TAB 400 is expected to go into production early in 2017, according to Scott Hubble, chief executive officer of nüCamp RV.
Pricing for the new model has not been established yet. “But our dealers are independently owned and operated and can set their price for their markets,” Hubble said.
Our Facebook post yesterday made it clear that TAB fans are eager to see photos of the new model – hence the photos below.

Hi Liam, WOW is right – the new TAB 400 is awesome! They are in the final prototype stage and will be ready in early Spring.
I live in Nashville ga. Was curious if yall sell any over this way. And what is the pricing of this. We travel for softball trips and this would be perfect if its not too expensive. Thanks. Please get back with me. Lamanda Boyette
Hi Lamanda, the only TAB dealership in Georgia is in Norcross, the dealer is Southland RV. Since we are the manufacturer, we leave the pricing up to the dealers. I would contact them for pricing on it once the 400 trickles out to dealers (early Spring 2017).
How soon will this be available to order? Will there be a clamshell version?
Hi Cathy, our TAB 400’s will be trickling into dealerships starting early Spring. There will not be a clamshell version.
Currently have a 2014 6×10 SilverShadow. What is the price of TAB 400. Looking for TT that we can sit up in and not have make bed every evening. Husband 6’4″. Thanks
Since we are the manufacturer, we leave the pricing up to the dealer. The TAB 400 is in its final prototype stage and should be hitting dealers in early Spring. Once your nearest TAB dealer has the 400 model, you may contact them for the price.
I love the new 400 — if it had been produced last year I would have probably waited and ordered one (who knows, perhaps I’ll eventually trade in my TAB and get it anyway)! All the new storage available and the curved designs are awesome. Looking forward to seeing one in person.
Hi Michele, we love the 400, too! The TAB 400 is currently in its final prototype stage and you should be able to see at a dealer in early Spring. You’ll love it even more when you see it in person!
I am extremely interested in the TAB 400. Is there going to be a waiting list? What are the requirements to get on it, and when will the first one be ready for sale? Any idea on the price? I LOVE the TAB but I a 6’2″ and just cannot fit in the regular ones. I am SO happy to see this one come around. Thank you.
Hi Charla, there is not a waiting list for the TAB 400 and the only requirement you need to do is visit a certified TAB dealer near you and choose which one is best for you. Please note: The TAB 400 is in its final prototype stage and won’t trickle out to dealers until early Spring. Thanks for your interest!
Love this! Please update as they go into production! I can easily tow this with my Highlander! Please hurry. But don’t make it to pricey or I will have to buy the micro Minnie or the Vintage instead.
Hi Pat, we are currently in our final prototype stage which means dealers won’t start to see the TAB 400 until early Spring. I think you’ll be happy with what we have to offer once it goes into production!
Me and my wife will be looking for a small trailer like this one. We do not know if we want to mess with a bathroom and all of the maintenance required like the black and grey water tanks? I am definitely new to this type of living. We are looking at a used 2014 TAB without a bathroom, but we have not decided yet. Is your black water tank easy to clean? Can you send me some more information about your TAB 400? Thanks Mike
Can these be purchased yet ?
Hi Barbara, the TAB 400 cannot be purchased yet. The TAB 400 is currently in the final prototype stage and it will not start to trickle out to dealers until early Spring.
Hello, When will the TAB 400 be for sale in the US?
Hi Kristi, thanks for your interest. Since the TAB 400 is in the final prototype stage, dealers won’t start to see the TAB 400 until early Spring.
I might just get one of these!
Hi Gerald, I love your enthusiasm and I highly recommend you do!
When can we buy the TAB400? What is the purchase price ? Any available in SC?
thanks
Hi Linda, thanks for your interest! The TAB 400 is in the final prototype stage and will not trickle out to dealers until early Spring.

Where can you buy the 400?

Can’t wait to get one! Will there be different models like the M@x etc.? Will it have shock’s on the axle? What dealers in eastern Oklahoma western Arkansas? Is The TAB forum coming to your new web site?
We can’t wait to get these out! As of right now, there will not be different models of the 400. Regarding the axles, there will not be shocks on them. There is a dealer, Truck N Stuff, located in Tulsa, Oklahoma – that is probably the dealer closest to you.
There are several TAB RV dealerships in Michigan. Will they be showing the TAB 400 prototype at the upcoming Marvac February 2017 RV show in Novi, Michigan?
Hi Jim, the TAB 400 will not be at the MARVAC RV Show in Novi. The 400’s are slowly trickling out to dealers and it won’t be for a few months until these units start reaching more dealerships.
Which Michigan dealers will be carrying the TAB 400?
I will be in Sugarcreek area in March. Can I come by the factory to see the 400 and some of the other campers. Do I need to make an appointment for a tour? Thanks.
Hi Linda, we are more than happy to have you come by for a tour. In order to do so, call our toll-free number at (844) 823-9112 and schedule the day and time you’d like to stop by. We look forward to meeting you!
Can you tell me the gross weight as well as tongue weight?
I sure can!
Gross weight: 2,960 pounds
Tongue weight (ballpark range): Between 325-370 pounds
Hope this helps!
Exactly what I was searching for, regards for putting up.
Hi, Justin –
I am seriously interested in one of the TAB 400’s. Please let me know which dealers in California, Oregon and Nevada will be selling these and I will grab my checkbook.
Thanks,
Steve
Hi Steve, the TAB 400 is still very slowly trickling out to dealers and are making their way across the country. It’s hard to tell right now which dealers are going to get them first, but I can update you once I find out more information. For a list of TAB dealers in California, Oregon and Nevada, you can find them on the TAB website, which over the next few months should be getting the TAB 400. If you’re anywhere close to Phoenix, there is currently a TAB 400 there for the weekend if you want to check it out in person. The dealer is Tom’s Camperland. As I find out more information on where the TAB 400’s arrive, I will let you know.
Hi Justin,
I am a past owner of a 2009 TAB and have been following the announcements around the new TAB 400 with much anticipation. It should be a hit! Heck, it’s like you actually listened to TAB owners over the years! What a concept!
Would you please add my named email to announcements about the availability of dealer stocking in Florida, SC, and Georgia. Thanks.
Reed Rucker
Hi Reed, believe me, I’m just as excited as you are about the TAB 400! We love our customers – when they spoke, we listened. Glad you approve! I will definitely add your email and keep you updated with announcements.
I ran across your site tonight, and can’t believe it is actually happening…a larger TAB! We have always liked the TAB, but with the need to sleep 3, we never pulled the trigger. Do you know what dealers are going to be carrying these, and if any dealers in Canada will have these when they hit production? Great job with the design and amount of storage in such a small footprint…a future Ontario buyer.
Hi Jeff, glad to hear your excitement for it! Since the product is still in its final prototype stage and slowly making its way to dealers, I’m not yet sure where at they’ll head to first or if there will be any dealers in Canada – though I’d be surprised if there weren’t any. I’ll be posting updates on our blog about the TAB 400 and its release – so check often!
Bumgarner Camping Center in NC has one listed for pre-order at $ 29,998. They are asking for a deposit if ordered.
I have been looking at the TABs for a while now and love the size of the 400. I have one question will the 400 have the awning or tent options that connect to the unit?
Hi Eileen, the 400 will not come with an awning. I’ll know more in the next couple months, but I do believe it will come with tent options 🙂
Will the 400 be available in Utah?
Hi Emily, since the TAB 400 is still in its final prototype stage, it’s very slowly trickling out to dealers. That being said, it’s hard to tell at the moment which dealers are going to get it. More dealers across the country will get the 400 over the next few months, but there are currently two TAB dealers in Utah. They are Nielson RV (located in Hurricane, UT) and Parris RV (located in Murray, UT). Over the next few months, if the TAB 400 is available in Utah, it will be at either of those dealers. Hope that helps 🙂
The TAB 400 looks great! Will it work with our new 2017 Chrysler Pacifica with factory trailer package (Class II Hitch with 2 -Inch Receiver, rated up to 3,500 pounds of Gross Trailer Weight with a maximum trailer tongue weight of 300 pounds. Thanks!
