ARB Altitude Hard Shell Electric Rooftop Tent

The ARB Altitude Hard Shell Electric Rooftop Tent is engineered by ARB 4x4 Accessories to deliver unmatched convenience, durability, and comfort for adventurers. Designed and manufactured in Australia, this four-season rooftop tent redefines camping with its fully automated setup, robust construction, and thoughtful features tailored for overland enthusiasts. Whether you’re a solo traveler, a couple, or a small family, the ARB Altitude offers a reliable, comfortable, and hassle-free camping experience, making it the go-to choice for off-road adventures.

Why Choose the ARB Altitude Rooftop Tent?

The ARB Altitude stands out with its innovative design, combining a one-touch automated setup with a premium fiberglass hardshell and a spacious interior. Unlike traditional rooftop tents, the Altitude eliminates manual effort with its electric scissor-lift system, powered by two high-quality ARB electronic actuators, ensuring setup and pack-down in just 75 seconds. Its patented SmartFold hinge technology ensures the 380GSM poly-cotton canvas folds neatly into the shell, preventing fabric jams during closure. With a lightweight aluminum frame, integrated roof rails, and a dual-color LED lighting system, this tent is built for versatility, safety, and comfort in any environment.

Key Features and Specifications

• Fully Automated Operation: Two ARB electronic actuators and a steel scissor mechanism enable one-touch opening and closing, completing the process in approximately 75 seconds. A manual failsafe system is included for reliability in case of power issues.
• Premium Materials: The tent features a natural gray gel-coated fiberglass shell for durability and a modern aesthetic, paired with a 380GSM poly-cotton canvas that is fire-retardant and weather-resistant. The lightweight aluminum frame ensures strength and compatibility with various vehicles.
• Spacious Interior: Offers a 73.6” L x 53.9” W x 46.5” H internal sleeping area with a 2.7” thick dual-density foam mattress, providing ample space and comfort for up to two people.
• Innovative Ladder Design: Includes a staircase-style retractable aluminum ladder with fold-out side handles and large treads, rated for 225 lbs. The ladder stores securely in a dedicated compartment on the tent’s roof, reducing clutter. An optional extension kit is available for vehicles up to 6.8 ft tall or those with high-lift suspensions.
• Integrated Lighting: Dual-color (amber/white) LED lighting illuminates the tent interior, ladder, and campsite, enhancing visibility and ambiance during nighttime activities.
• Versatile Mounting: Universal folded brackets allow compatibility with ARB BASE Rack or generic crossbar systems, ensuring fitment across a wide range of vehicles.
• Accessory-Friendly Design: Sleek roof rails with T-slot mounting channels support up to 44 lbs (20 kg) of gear, such as a 120W solar panel or side awning kit, without hindering the tent’s electronic operation.
• Weather-Resistant Features: Drainage points in each corner of the base prevent water accumulation during heavy rainfall, while grommets block dust ingress when closed. A front wind deflector reduces wind drag and road noise during travel.
• Power Supply: Operates via a 12V vehicle battery, connectable through hardwiring or a 12V Anderson plug (sold separately), ensuring functionality in remote locations.
