If you’re serious about overlanding or just love the freedom of spontaneous road trips, the Front Runner Roof Top Tent is built to keep adventure effortless. Priced at R15,399 (at time of article), this lightweight rooftop sleeper is the lowest profile tent on the market, standing just 330mm high when packed down. That means less wind resistance on the road and no awkward clearance issues with your rig.
Once set up, the tent opens in one smooth motion, transforming into a spacious 1.3m x 2.4m sleeping area that comfortably fits two adults (with room to spare). At just 43kg, it’s lighter than other tents in its class, making it kinder on your roof rack and easier to handle.
Built tough, the tent body is made from 260g poly-cotton ripstop with a waterproof 400d polyester rainfly for all-weather protection. Inside, you’ll find a 6cm high-density foam mattress with a washable cover, skylight windows for stargazing, and adjustable side panels for airflow or privacy. Thoughtful extras like storage pockets, a sturdy aluminum ladder, and a heavy-duty PVC travel cover round out the package.
Whether you’re chasing sunsets, parking at the coast, or heading deep into the bush, the Front Runner Roof Top Tent ensures your bedroom is always ready – elevated, comfortable, and built to last.
