Can my car tow a Nomadic Off-road Camper?

Can My Car Tow a Nomadic Off-Road Camper?

Many vehicles are capable of towing our Nomadic Off-Road Campers and Caravans, but it’s essential to choose a tow vehicle that suits your specific needs.

How to Determine if Your Vehicle is Suitable:

• Check your vehicle’s towing capacity in the owner’s manual.

• Compare it with the ATM (Aggregate Trailer Mass) of the camper you’re interested in.

• Ensure your tow ball weight rating matches the camper’s requirements.

• Consider GVM (Gross Vehicle Mass) and GCM (Gross Combination Mass) to stay compliant with road laws.

It is the owner’s responsibility to ensure their vehicle is legally and safely capable of towing their chosen Nomadic Off-Road Camper.

For advice, contact your local Nomadic Off-Road Campers dealer or a towing specialist to find the best match for your setup.

Do I need electric brakes?

Do I Need Electronic Brakes for My Nomadic Off-Road Camper?

Yes, all Nomadic Off-Road Campers and Caravans require an electronic brake controller to be installed in your tow vehicle before collection. We typically recommend the Redarc Tow-Pro for reliable performance.

​

Additional Recommendations:

• 🔹 Electronic Brake Controller – Required for safe braking and compliance.

• 🔹 Anderson Plug – Strongly recommended for charging while driving.

Important Installation Note

To ensure safety and protect your warranty, both the brake controller and Anderson plug must be installed by a licensed auto electrician. Improper installation could lead to performance issues and may void your warranty.

For expert advice, consult your local Nomadic Off-Road Campers dealer or a professional auto electrician.
