Why choose a car tent for your adventures?

Car top tents, like our rooftop tents and towbar-mounted tents offer unique benefits that make them a great choice for outdoor enthusiasts. These tents provide elevated views, quick setups, and the ability to camp comfortably in diverse weather conditions. With Thule car tents, you can enjoy a raised sleeping platform that keeps you off the cold ground, offers better views, and keeps you away from mud, snow, or critters.

Built for adventure

Car roof tents allow for a flexible and mobile camping experience. With built-in mattresses, fast setup times, and weather-resistant materials, they’re perfect for spontaneous trips. For those planning family vacations or longer journeys, explore our range of car tent bundles designed for easy setup and maximum comfort.

Types of car tents

Our versatile range includes towbar-mounted tents that are perfect for exploring nature and easy transport. For weekend warriors or for your vacation, a rooftop tent offers a compact, lightweight option that saves space on your vehicle’s roof.
