What do Jay Leno, Shelby Supercars Ultimate Aero, and Jones and Son Chassis manufacturers have in common? Speed. Performance. Passion. And the creation of the an amazing new motorhome chassis.

So that doesn't quite explain Jay Leno. But if you look below, you will see a video from Jay Lenos Garage where Jay test drives the Ultimate Aero. If Jones and Son can bring any of that passion into this new RV chassis, maybe Leno will be reviewing it next.

It is pretty common knowlege that big labels supply products to the RV industry - whether tires, refrigerators or whatever. What a lot of people don't know is how some of the more complex systems come into play. Jones and Son Chassis has been around a long time. When a manufacturer wants to build a unique chassis product, this is where they go. Jones and Son have created platforms for Fleetwood RV, Country Coach, and most recently, the leading edge chassis they developed with Bob Tiffin for Tiffin motorhomes, the Powerglide diesel pusher with IFS and front air disc brakes.

That being said, SSC and Jones and Son have announced their collaboration in the production of a hybrid motorhome chassis.

Jones & Son Chassis, North America's premier custom motorhome chassis designer has entered into an exclusive agreement with SSC Green Inc. of West Richland, Washington to integrate SSC Green's All Electric Scalable Powertrain to produce a hybrid motorhome chassis platform.

After a year of meeting with several companies and researching various entities in the EV drivetrain industry, "SSC Green's AESP proved to be the only solution to meet the demanding specifications and capabilities of our motorhome chassis."

Jones & Son Chassis design specification requires a 500-mile range motorhome that must achieve 150 miles on battery pack, and then switch over to "hybrid mode" for an additional 350 miles. During hybrid mode the onboard generator will charge the battery pack. SSC Green’s controller will easily charge the battery pack overnight with 50amp/220 volt standard camp ground electrical service. Jones believes SSC Green is the solution for supplying cost effective, reliable hybrid powertrain technology for the motorhome market.

SSC Green is a subsidiary of Shelby SuperCars the producer of the Ultimate Aero, the "World's Fastest Production Car". With a track-record for excellence and innovation of ground breaking technology SSC Green's AESP presents a real alternative to motorhomes powered exclusively by petroleum based fuel.
