Multi-tools for your vehicle are great to have on hand, giving you an array of useful tools in a compact design. Charlotte Autofair, the largest car exhibit and vintage car show event in North Carolina and the Southeast, lists the top four multi-tools to keep in your car that can help you in almost any situation:

• Victorinox Swiss Army Cadet Knife: This lightweight classic multi-tool has all the basics you need—a large blade, a can opener, two small screwdrivers, a key ring, a bottle opener, a wire stripper, and a nail file. The slim design makes carrying easy and is perfect for small, everyday tasks.
• Leatherman’s The Tread. This stainless steel bracelet has 29 tools. The wearable design is exceptional, and multiple tools, like wrenches and screwdrivers, are designed to fit into the bracelet links. The bracelet can be adjusted to fit any size wrist.
• Eat N Tool By Columbia River Knife and Tool. This convenient multi-tool has a spork and a bottle opener as well as three different wrenches. It’s great for eating on the go and also for fixing any quick repair that might pop up. The central hole in its design also makes gripping much easier.
• Leatherman's MUT Multi-Tool. The foldable body houses 16 different tools, including two sets of pliers, wire cutters, a hammer, a saw, a knife, and several screwdrivers. The design of the tool also allows for the replacing of commonly used parts.
