Improve Your Outdoor Experience with 4WD Awnings

Outback Equipment proudly stocks Australia's best ranges of 4x4 awnings and accessories! With over 200 4WD awnings and accessories available online for any vehicle. Our selection includes standard style awnings as well as the popular 180 degree awnings, 270 degree awnings, & 360 degree awning.

Choosing The Best Size Awning For Your 4WD

Awning Size Suitable For
2 meters or less Dual cab utes such as Hilux, Navara, Triton, Amarok mounted to the vehicle cab & smaller 4WD wagons
2+ meters or more Larger 4x4 wagons such as Landcruiser, Patrol & Prado or Vehicles with trays and canopies.

Keep in mind that 2.5m awnings measure 2.5 meters along your roof rack (rather than 2.5 meters when extended), so there may be some overhang towards the bonnet on most 4WDs. If you’re doing serious off-roading, a large overhang can get caught up on overhead branches.

When four-wheel driving through the outback, bushland, and beaches of Australia with your mates, you’re bound to pull up somewhere for a feed and a few drinks after a full day of driving. That’s why a 4x4 awning is a perfect addition to your next adventure. Just put on the brakes, pull out your awning, and put the legs down to have a shady spot to relax under instantly, anywhere and at any time.

But 4x4 enthusiasts aren’t the only ones who can benefit from car awnings. Camping and caravanning holidaymakers will all reap the benefits of having a vehicle awning attached to their 4WD or RV. A little extra shade goes a long way for any outdoor adventure, so make an enquiry about our awnings at Outback Equipment today for quick access to a comfortable place to relax during your off-road expedition or camping trip.

Our 4x4 and RV awning options are available in three convenient sizes, delivering a coverage area from 4m² right up to 6m².

Frequently Asked Questions about 4WD Awnings

What's an awning and what is it used for?

An awning is a secondary covering attached to the exterior of a vehicle, typically mounted to the roof rack or side of a 4WD, RV, or campervan. It is made from durable, weather-resistant materials like canvas or polyester and can be extended outwards to create a shaded area.

Uses of Awnings

  1. Shade and Shelter: Awnings provide protection from the sun's harmful UV rays, offering a comfortable shaded area to relax under during hot days. They also offer shelter from rain and wind, making them useful in various weather conditions.

  2. Outdoor Living Space: They extend your living space when camping or on road trips, creating an outdoor area for cooking, dining, and socializing. This is particularly beneficial in remote or crowded camping areas where space is limited.

  3. Protection for Equipment: Awnings can protect camping gear, cooking equipment, and other belongings from the elements, keeping them dry and safe.

  4. Versatility: Some awnings come with additional accessories like side walls, mosquito nets, and LED lighting, enhancing their functionality. They can be used for setting up privacy areas, makeshift kitchens, or even outdoor showers.

Can I use a 4WD awning in windy conditions?

While 4WD awnings are designed to withstand various weather conditions, it's important to take precautions in windy environments. Always secure the awning with the provided guy ropes and pegs to stabilize it. If winds become too strong, it's advisable to retract the awning to avoid damage. Using awning walls or additional support poles can provide extra stability.
