Everything You’ll Need For A BC Road Trip

Everything You’ll Need For A BC Road Trip

It’s almost that time of the year. Summer’s just around the corner in Canada, which is perfect for exploring all the natural wonders of the country with your family. The mountains are cool and white, the trees are tall and green, while the National Parks become overcrowded with abrasive tour buses crowding the parking lots. Luckily, you won’t have to deal with that last one because you and your family will be together in one vehicle, which is—give or take—a lot more fun.

If you’re looking for a Volkswagen Vehicle to drive you and your family for this summer, look no further than your local VW Burnaby dealer! We also carry Volkswagen Original Accessories to pair perfectly with your VW vehicle, so read on to learn more about which ones work best for you.

Choose your Volkswagen

Choosing the right Volkswagen may sound a little overwhelming, but luckily we’ve picked some of the best models that we think will work best for your family road trip. If you’re looking for something spacious yet compact, then look no further than the VW Golf SportWagen. It’s got everything you would need for the long drive like satellite navigation, 60/40 split-folding rear seats, and 4MOTION All-Wheel Drive to conquer any terrain. If you’re looking for something with more space, the Volkswagen Tiguan also offers most of the same features along with an additional 1,065L worth of cargo room to take all your supplies and belongings with you. Either way, you’re getting a vehicle that’s perfect for everyone!

Take Everything You Need

Looking to do some outdoor adventuring as well? If you’re planning on bringing some extra gear, we recommend adding one of our specially-made racks. The base rack features a T-Slot channel for easy installation and keyed lock bolts for secure installation, giving you the assurance that it won’t be going anywhere. Meanwhile, the bike rack comes in either a fork mount-style carrier or a holder attachment and the boat holder attachment makes carrying your kayak easier than ever before. Between either one of these three racks, you shouldn’t have any problems with carrying any of your outdoor gear with you on the long drive.

The Best Road Trip Accessories

While road trips can be fun, the drive getting to your destination can be both long and tedious—someone’s bound to spill the eventual soda or chip bag on the ground. That’s why we have all-season rubber mats to make cleaning your Volkswagen’s interior effortless against anything that’ll make a mess or stain easily. While watching the raindrops race against each other on the window may be fun for a little while, you should fill the rest of the drive with some of your family’s favourite tunes with the AppConnect system, keeping you in touch with all your music through Bluetooth connection.

We hope this helped give you some options to make your family road trip a memorable one. For more information on any of our vehicles or accessories, visit Open Road Volkswagen in Burnaby to find the perfect choice.
