ARB Altitude Rooftop Tent
Description
The ARB Altitude Rooftop Tent represents the pinnacle of off-grid living, engineered for adventurers who demand convenience, comfort, and durability in a single package. Drawing on nearly 50 years of ARB engineering expertise and thousands of miles of rigorous real-world testing, the Altitude automates setup and pack-down so you spend less time on chores and more time enjoying the outdoors. A single push of a button raises or lowers the tent in under two minutes, powered by two high-quality electronic actuators and ARB's patented SmartFold hinge technology.
The sleek, curved fiberglass shell is designed to blend with modern vehicle lines, while the lightweight aluminum frame provides the structural strength needed to handle four-season conditions. Whether you're a solo explorer, a couple, or a small family heading into the backcountry, the Altitude's spacious 54 x 73.6 in sleeping area, 2.7-inch dual-density foam mattress, and 46.5 inches of headspace ensure a genuinely restful night wherever the road takes you.
Key Features
- Push-Button Automation: Two electronic actuators open or close the tent in under two minutes via a scissor mechanism - no manual lifting required.
- Patented SmartFold Hinge Technology: ARB's exclusive SmartFold system folds heavy-duty canvas walls effortlessly into the shell for a hands-free, stress-free pack-down.
- 4-Season Fiberglass Shell: 1-inch thick top and bottom fiberglass panels with an 11/16-inch honeycomb insulated base core, drainage corners, weatherproof zippers, and an integrated front wind deflector.
- 2.7-Inch Dual-Density Foam Mattress: Oversized 54 x 73.6 in mattress with 46.5 in of headspace provides hotel-quality comfort at the campsite.
- Dual-Color LED Lighting System: Dimmable amber/white LED strip lighting inside the tent, around the ladder mount, and at the campsite for visibility and ambiance at night.
- 12V Power System: Powers via hardwire or 12V Anderson plug (sold separately); includes USB, USB-C chargers, a 12V socket, integrated roof fan with multi-speed and directional settings, and intelligent power isolation to prevent battery drain when closed.
- Integrated Roof Rails with T-Slot Mounting: Built-in aluminum roof rails rated to 44 lb dynamic load - the electronic open/close function remains fully operational even with accessories mounted.
- Premium Height-Adjustable Ladder with Handrail: Internally stored aluminum ladder rated to 225 lb, with a built-in amber/white downlight on the mount and a sturdy handrail - the only tent of its kind with this feature.
- Safety and Security: Lockable D-handles on both sides, a fail-safe internal power isolator, a red rocker switch to isolate external controls overnight, and a manual emergency override in the event of electrical failure.
- Panoramic 360-Degree Views: Unzipping each corner and door panel opens the tent to a full panoramic outdoor view.
- 3-Year ARB Warranty: Backed by ARB's industry-leading warranty and 45-day return policy.

Manuals & Guides
FAQ
What power source does the Altitude Rooftop Tent require?
The Altitude runs on 12V power drawn from your vehicle's battery. It can be connected via hardwiring or by plugging directly into a 12V Anderson plug (sold separately). The tent features intelligent power isolation that automatically cuts power to lights and devices when the tent is closed, so you never have to worry about draining your battery overnight.
Does the tent come with a mattress and bedding?
Yes - the Altitude includes a 2.7-inch thick dual-density foam mattress (54 x 73.6 in). The roof liner has also been molded to accommodate heavy-duty blankets and pillows, so you can pack your bedding inside the tent when closing it up - no unpacking and repacking required.
Will the Altitude Rooftop Tent fit my vehicle?
The Altitude is designed to be compatible with most aftermarket roof racks and crossbar systems using the included universal bracket clamp system. It is compatible with ARB's BASE Rack as well as most generic crossbar setups. Note that many OEM/factory roof racks do not have sufficient weight capacity for this tent (233.7 lb), so an aftermarket rack is often recommended. Use the fitment checker on the product page or contact us for guidance specific to your vehicle.
Is the Altitude Tent suitable for use in cold or extreme weather?
The Altitude is rated for all four seasons and features weatherproof external zippers, water drainage holes in each corner, dust-blocking grommet covers, and an 11/16-inch insulated honeycomb base core. However, it is not designed as an insulated tent for extreme cold temperatures. In moderate winter conditions it performs well; for sub-zero or high-alpine winter camping, additional insulation solutions may be needed.
What happens if there is an electrical failure while the tent is open?
ARB has included a manual emergency override system for peace of mind. In the unlikely event that the actuators fail, the override allows you to bypass the electrical system and manually lower the tent. The internal control box also includes a fail-safe isolator that prevents the tent from being accidentally triggered while you are inside.
How long does it take to set up or pack down the tent?
The Altitude can be opened or closed in under two minutes with a single button press. The official pack-down time is rated at 75 seconds. ARB's SmartFold hinge technology means the canvas walls fold automatically into the shell - no manual tucking or wrestling with fabric required.
Can I mount accessories on top of the Altitude while it is loaded?
Yes. The integrated aluminum roof rails with T-slot mounting channels support a dynamic load rating of 44 lb. The electronic opening and closing functionality is maintained even with accessories or cargo mounted on the roof rails, so you don't need to remove your gear before packing up camp.
