The story of the model
X3-45 history
RVBusiness reported in February 2020 that Marathon Show Coach #1317 was debuting at the Prevost Motorhome Expo in West Palm Beach, Florida, on Prevost's new X3 chassis, which the report also calls the X3-45. The report said the updated shell had a stiffer structure, updated side windows and an 8 to 10 percent gain in fuel efficiency. Marathon staff quoted in the report said about 2.5 inches of added interior height let the company raise the ceiling another half inch.
A 2023 profile lists the X3-45 beside the H3-45 as the two shells Marathon builds on.
