Color Name:

Dark Gray

A hardshell rooftop tent built around an aluminium alloy shell and 280g polyester-cotton canvas, with a quick automatic opening mechanism that gets camp set up almost as fast as you can park. Both the canvas and the floor are rated above 3000 mm, and the poly-cotton blend breathes far better than pure synthetic fabric, which is what keeps condensation down on cold mornings.

Product Highlights

Camp Set Up on Arrival

The automatic opening mechanism means the tent raises itself once released. No poles, no pegging, no deciding where the ground is least lumpy.

A Shell That Protects

An aluminium alloy hardshell keeps the canvas dry and clean in transit and takes the weather while the tent is closed, unlike a soft cover that soaks through.

Poly-Cotton, Not Just Polyester

280g polyester-cotton blend breathes in a way pure synthetics cannot. That means less condensation dripping on you at dawn and a more comfortable interior in warm weather.

Rated Above 3000 mm

Both the outer canvas and the floor carry ratings above 3000 mm, comfortably beyond ordinary camping specification.

Off the Ground

Sleeping on the roof keeps you clear of wet ground, insects, and uneven pitches, and lets you camp wherever you can park.

Important Information

  • At 82 kg this is a heavy tent. Confirm both the dynamic and static load ratings of your roof rack and vehicle before ordering, and plan on more than one person to fit it.
  • Open and closed dimensions are not listed in our supplier data. Contact us and we will request them for your vehicle.
  • Sleeping capacity is recorded only as one bedroom, with no number of people given. Get in touch before ordering and we will confirm.
  • A ladder is not listed as included, and a rooftop tent needs one. Check with us before ordering.
  • The supplier describes this as a four season tent but gives no wind or snow load ratings to support that. Treat winter use with caution until we can confirm.
  • Poly-cotton canvas needs weathering before first use, and should never be packed away damp. Left wet, it will develop mould.
  • Do not use open flames, fuel-burning stoves, or heaters inside the tent.
  • Close the tent before driving and do not leave it open in strong wind.
