How to Choose the Right Roof Top Tent
- Vehicle roof-load rating: Check your owner’s manual and rack specs (dynamic & off-road). Choose a tent + rack combo that stays within limits.
- Rack compatibility: Confirm bar spacing, platform width and mounting hardware for your setup.
- Capacity & comfort: Look at mattress size/thickness, internal height and insulation for all-season use.
- Setup speed: Hard-shell tents typically deploy in seconds; soft-shells offer more space with a few extra steps.
- Weight & profile: Lighter, lower tents help with fuel use and clearance on tracks and in carparks.
- Accessories: Annexes, ladder extensions, anti-condensation mats, load bars and lighting can level-up your camp.
