Freedom on Four Wheels: The Joy of Flat Towing with a Suzuki

When you're living life on the road in your motorhome, the adventure doesn’t stop when you park up for the night. Having a second, smaller vehicle on hand can make the difference between staying put and discovering something unforgettable just down the track. That’s where flat towing comes into its own – and if you're driving something like an Avida Longreach, or even the popular Avida Esperance, you're already halfway there.

Flat towing – also called dinghy towing – allows you to connect a compact vehicle, like a Suzuki all-wheel drive or 4x4, directly behind your motorhome using a simple towbar setup. It’s a clean, fuss-free way to bring a second vehicle without the need for trailers or complicated storage solutions. With the Avida Esperance coming standard with a heavy-duty towbar, it’s often just a matter of choosing your Suzuki and having the right tow fittings installed.

Whether you’re navigating tight town centres, heading in for groceries, or parking near a local attraction or theatre, having a Suzuki at your disposal makes day trips and errands a breeze. But the real magic happens when you venture off the beaten track – think winding up a dirt trail to a scenic lookout or finding that hidden beach fishing spot away from the crowds.

Suzukis are a favourite among seasoned travellers for good reason. They're light enough to be towed confidently behind a large motorhome like the Avida Longreach, and rugged enough to take on off-road terrain once unhooked. Add to that their rock-solid reliability, low running costs, and reputation for simplicity – and you've got the perfect runabout.
