Camping is a great way to enjoy outdoor life. However, the logistics associated with being out in nature can be very different from those in everyday urban life, so you need a vehicle that can keep up! These five vehicles make light work of even the most adventurous camping journeys, ensuring you are well-equipped for every journey.
1) Ford Expedition
The Ford Expedition is a full-size, three-row SUV with the size and power to handle any camping trip with comfort and ease. Available with a 3.5-litre twin-turbo engine that delivers 380 hp and 470 lb-ft of torque, it also features all-wheel drive and a smooth 10-speed automatic transmission with SelectShift®. Selectable drive modes mean the Expedition is a match for any terrain, with options for grass, gravel, mud, sand, and more. Its spacious cabin is packed with advanced technology for a comfortable journey, while a maximum towing capacity of 9,200 lbs (4,173 kg) makes the Expedition a perfect choice for any heavy-duty camping trip.
2) Jeep Wrangler 4-Door
The Jeep Wrangler is an undisputed hero of outdoor adventuring, with the rugged off-road ability to meet almost any terrain. A range of high-powered gas, diesel, and hybrid powertrains ensure you always have the performance you need, while Jeep's advanced all-wheel-drive system means the Wrangler is perfectly at home on unpaved surfaces. With close to 2,050 litres of cargo space available backed by 3,500 pounds of towing capacity in the 4-door model, the Wrangler is an ideal choice for explorers who prefer trips away from mainstream camping grounds.
3) Ford Bronco Sport
If you need the ruggedness of a Wrangler but in a more compact size, the Ford Bronco Sport makes for an excellent alternative. The turbo engine creates up to 245 horsepower and 270 lb-ft of torque, which combines with all-wheel drive for excellent handling in all conditions. While the Bronco Sport is compact, it still has room for 906 litres of cargo with the rear seats upright, along with a towing capacity of up to 2,200 pounds.
4) Nissan Pathfinder
With seating for up to eight passengers across three spacious rows, the Nissan Pathfinder is an ideal choice for larger groups. The flexible seating arrangement offers up to 2,279 litres of space for stowing gear, and the Pathfinder also boasts a maximum towing capacity of 6,000 pounds, enough to haul dirt bikes or even a small boat for more leisure activities. The Pathfinder's powertrain won't let you down in tough conditions, either, with the 3.5-litre V6 engine and all-wheel drive more than a match for any wilderness adventures.
5) Honda Ridgeline
If you're looking for an SUV alternative, the Honda Ridgeline is a mid-size truck that offers genuine pickup capability combined with SUV-like comfort in the cabin. Its powerful 3.5-litre V6 engine, along with a payload capacity of 1,530 pounds and up to 5,000 pounds in trailer weight, means hauling your gear is no problem. With advanced infotainment features that include Wi-Fi tethering, an 8.0-inch touchscreen, and bilingual Bluetooth support, you can enjoy a fully modern driving experience even when you're deep in the backwoods.
