Go off the beaten track with this Safari Auto 4WD, built on a mix of Isuzu D-Max and Toyota Hilux chassis. The ride in the Safari Auto 4WD is smooth and comfortable on the road, with the ability to tackle the tough outback terrain with ease. Two people can sleep in the roof-top tent, with the remaining three people in the attached ground annexe, on the self-inflating sleeping mats provided.
There’s no stopping you now! Get out there and explore Australia your way. Find the hidden outback gems in places you can only access by 4WD. We’ll supply the vehicle – you bring the adventure! This vehicle can be driven off-road on dirt and unsealed roads. Visit Fitzroy Crossing, Katherine, Broome or Kununurra.
With seating for 5 people this 4WD is very popular, so if you are looking for a 4WD to hire over School Holidays. We suggest you book sooner rather than later as these popular 5 seat models do book out quickly.
Outback Safety Kit: The Outback Safety Kit is included in the vehicle and contains an Emergency Position Indication Radio Beacon (EPIRB), snatch strap with D shackles and a folding spade. An EPIRB when activated transmits an emergency distress signal which can be detected by Australian rescue authorities. A snatch strap is used to pull a vehicle from a bogged position with the aid of another vehicle. The D shackles secure the snatch strap to a rigid anchor point.
