We know how important it is to make sure that your rooftop tent is secure and safe. That’s why it is important that your tent fits your car properly. Below are some things to consider when checking if a tent will fit your car.
Weight capacity
The dynamic weight capacity is the weight your car can handle when driving. This is the maximum weight capacity specified by your vehicle manufacturer. It’s basically the weight capacity needed to hold your rooftop tent.
The static weight capacity, on the other hand, is the weight that your car can take when the car is parked, the tent is set up and the ladder is added. Since the ladder adds extra support, the static weight capacity is usually three times more than the dynamic weight capacity. This tells you the weight needed to hold the tent and the people sleeping inside.
Distance requirement
There are aluminum bars at the bottom of the tent used to attach the tent to your car roof. These bars can’t be too wide for your car. Check the recommended distance requirement in the tent’s manual to make sure it fits your specific vehicle, or use our guide that calculates it for you.
Roof rack fit
You will want to buy an aftermarket roof rack since they have a higher weight capacity than most factory installed racks that come with your car. Your rack will need to be able to handle the dynamic weight of the tent.Roof top tents fit on most roof racks. You can use our buyer’s guide to find if your rack will work with our rooftop tents.
