2016 KZSpree Escape E18RBT

KZ lists the 2016 Spree Escape E18RBT at 2,690 lb dry, a GVWR of 3,500 lb, a net carrying capacity of 810 lb and a tongue weight of 350 lb. Its dry weight plus its carrying capacity comes to exactly its GVWR.

It is 19' 1" long and 104" high. KZ prints its tanks as 20 gal fresh, 32 gal grey, 24 gal black.

Among the 12 Spree Escape floorplans KZ’s Spree Escape brochure (filed in KZ’s 2016 brochure folder; the brochure prints no year) lists with a published dry weight, it is number 5 from the lightest, in a range from 2,202 lb (Spree Escape E14RB) to 3,760 lb (Spree Escape E250S). Every figure in that comparison is KZ’s, for the same model year.

Every number on this page was read on 6 Nov 2026 from KZ’s Spree Escape brochure (filed in KZ’s 2016 brochure folder; the brochure prints no year); model year 2016 comes from where the maker files it on its own site, not from the document’s text.
