T23X Foldable Aluminium Roof Top Tent

The standard folding shell

The T23X is the middle of the Z-fold family: a two-panel shell that opens by folding up rather than lifting a single lid, on a 20 cm body with 120 cm of headroom when open. It is the model we quote when a customer wants folding-shell geometry with a normal amount of interior space and no unusual constraints on the vehicle.

Folding shells have one practical advantage over single-lid designs: the fabric is tensioned by the fold rather than stretched over a single span, so the panels stay taut in wind without a pole set or extra guy lines.

5 cm mattress as standard

The T23X ships with a 5 cm mattress, not the 3 cm entry specification. The 20 cm body leaves enough depth that bedding can stay inside when closed — useful for customers who tour rather than camp, and who do not want to strip the bed every morning.

Optional roof rack basket

A basket can be fitted to the closed shell. It is an add-on rather than built-in, which keeps the base price competitive for buyers who will never load the roof — but it means the rack is a line item, not a standard feature.

Sizing

Two shells. The T23X-130 sleeps one to two at 50 kg, closing to 130×115×20 cm and opening to 130×220×120 cm. The T23X-160 sleeps two to three at 55 kg, closing to 160×115×20 cm and opening to 160×220×120 cm.

FAQ

What is the difference between hard shell, soft shell and inflatable tents?
Hard shell tents have a rigid ABS or aluminium lid that opens on gas struts or an electric actuator, and they are the quickest to set up. Soft shell tents fold out from a fabric cover and give more floor area for the same footprint. Inflatable tents use air tubes instead of poles, which keeps the packed size and weight down. Which one suits you depends on how often you camp and how much space you need.
Will it fit my roof rack?
A rooftop tent needs a rack whose static rating covers the tent plus everyone sleeping in it, with a margin for bedding and gear. Check the static rating of your rack and the roof limit set by your vehicle manufacturer before ordering; if you tell us the rack model we will confirm the combination.
How long does it take to set up?
Hard shell models open on gas struts or an electric actuator and are ready in well under a minute; soft shell models are unfolded by hand and take a few minutes to tension. Neither requires tools.
Does it come with a ladder?
Standard models ship with a telescopic ladder. Confirm the ladder length you need when ordering if your vehicle is lifted, and we will match it to your roof height.
Can I add an annex room or lighting?
Yes. We supply the AR01 annex room and the LS01 LED light strip as matching accessories, both designed for our roof top tent range.
Can I carry gear on top of the tent?
On hard shell models a roof load carrier can be specified as an option - state it when ordering and we will confirm what the shell is built to take. On soft shell models the folded fabric is not a load surface.
Is the tent waterproof, and what does the IP67 rating mean?
IP67 means dust-tight and protected against temporary immersion. Several of our ABS hard shell models are quoted at IP67, and that figure comes from our own in-house test rather than a third-party laboratory, so we do not quote a certificate number. Soft shell and inflatable models are water-repellent rather than rated, and we recommend a rain fly for sustained heavy rain. Tell us the conditions you expect and we will confirm what the model you are considering is built to handle.
MOQ
MOQ depends on the model - as a guide, allow 10 to 50 units per model for OEM production. A stock sample can be supplied as a single unit, and mixed models can share one container to reach an efficient volume. Tell us your target quantity and we will confirm.
