The Armadillo Horizon 2 is built for people who actually live out of their vehicle rather than camp once a summer. Its aluminium hardshell opens high, giving two adults a genuinely tall interior at 43 inches of sleeping headroom, and a 2 inch self-inflating mattress is waiting inside. Ventilation is a particular strength, and the 4-season build means the tent works in shoulder seasons rather than sitting in the garage. This version opens to the left.

Product Highlights
High-Opening Design
The new high-opening shell gives 43 inches of headroom over the sleeping platform, so you can sit up properly, get changed, and move around rather than shuffling on your elbows.
Aluminium Hardshell
A rugged aluminium shell protects the tent in transit and stands up to repeated opening and closing, which is what separates a tent built for overlanding from one built for occasional weekends.
Self-Inflating Mattress
A 2 inch self-inflating mattress comes fitted, so the bed sets itself up while you deal with the rest of camp.
Ventilation That Works
Airflow is a headline feature of this tent, and it matters more than most buyers expect. Good ventilation is what keeps condensation off the inside of the shell on cold nights.
Four-Season Capable
The tent is rated for four-season use, so trips are not restricted to fair weather months.
Room for Two
The 51 by 78 inch sleeping platform takes two adults comfortably, and the tent opens to 62 by 80 inches overall.

Important Information
- This model opens to the left only. Confirm that suits your vehicle layout and where you plan to park before ordering.
- The tent weighs 205 lbs with rails and ladder, before occupants. Confirm your roof rack and crossbars are rated for both the dynamic load while driving and the static load of tent plus sleepers, using your vehicle owner's manual and rack specifications.
- This is an oversized freight item. Additional freight charges may apply depending on delivery location, and our team will confirm shipping details before despatch.
- Install following the supplied instructions, confirm all mounting hardware is correctly tightened, and re-check the fixings after the first drive and periodically afterwards.
- A rooftop tent raises your vehicle height and changes its handling. Note the new clearance for garages, car parks, and low branches, and allow for the extra weight when cornering and braking.
- Set the ladder on firm, level ground and take care climbing in and out, particularly at night or in wet conditions.
- Close and secure the tent before driving and in high winds, and pitch in sheltered spots where you can.
- Do not use open flames, fuel-burning stoves, or heaters inside the tent.
- Dry the tent fully before closing it for storage to prevent mould and odours, and clean the fabric with mild soap and water rather than harsh solvents.
