Navigation system
A navigation system can be very useful in low network areas. Navigation systems are usually loaded with maps which work offline as well. Navigation systems also have features like distance mapping and terrain mapping. This can help you reach your destination safely and be prepared for good and bad areas.

Car tent
Car tents or roof tents can be attached to big gypsies and SUVs. Such tents unfold from inside the car and can provide stable temporary accommodation for overnight trips. These are easy to fold and unfold, easy to set up and provide protection from most weather conditions. Such tents are also easy to carry as they are attached to the car itself.

Vehicle air mattress
Vehicle mattresses are usually pretty durable and can withstand sharp objects, weather damage and much more. They can also be pretty comfortable if you have a vehicle that has a large back space, like a pickup. Such mattresses are inflatable, and accompanied with an air pump, can provide a cheap and durable way to manage overnight stays. These mattresses are also good for long trips.
Battery backup power station
Many battery backup systems are readily available in the market and can be a boon for people who need their gadgets charged during the trip. A battery backup system is efficient for a few days and can even power your house during a power outage.
Automatic tyre deflators
Reducing the air pressure in your tyres help them gain more traction which can bring you out of many tough situations. Even reducing the tyre pressure by a few points can help them float over mud, soft sand and deep snow. People usually avoid deflating tyres as it can be a tedious process, however, with an automatic deflator this task can be accomplished within minutes.
Recovery kit
If you drive off-road enough you'll know the importance of a recovery kit in a sticky situation. When your car gets stuck in a ditch or in a tough terrain, a recovery kit can enable another car to safely attach itself to your vehicle and get it out.
Don't forget to carry these accessories on your next off-roading trip and have a safe and exciting experience. Most people don't pay much attention to such car accessories, but having them can be a boon in tough situations.
