The rigid aluminium honeycomb base keeps the tent stable and insulated. The sealed hard shell prevents moisture from entering. You sleep on a 40mm memory foam mattress. Carpeted flooring and a built-in condensation mat ensure comfort night after night, whether on a beach track or deep in the bush.

YKK zippers won’t jam when you’re tired. The setup unfolds smoothly without complicated mechanisms. Solar panel integration keeps your phone, torch, and essentials charged.

The 260cm ladder suits lifted vehicles. Cross bars and luggage brackets come with the tent. You get everything ready to mount.

This tent is perfect for serious Aussie campers who want a hard shell rooftop tent that handles the road, protects gear, and delivers real comfort.

Features

  • Aerodynamic Hard Shell Design: The sealed hard shell protects your tent, mattress, and gear from harsh Australian elements dust storms, heavy rain, UV damage, and road debris. Reduces wind noise and drag during travel, improving fuel efficiency and handling on long road trips.
  • Smart Sleeping Space: 210L × 180W interior is perfectly sized for solo travellers or couples. No wasted space, no claustrophobia, just enough room to move around, store your gear when weather turns bad, and wake up properly rested.
  • Genuine Comfort: 40mm memory foam mattress with carpeted flooring keeps you comfortable night after night, even on extended trips. Built-in condensation mat prevents moisture build-up in humid Aussie conditions.
  • Built to Cope with the Elements: Rigid aluminium honeycomb base won't flex or absorb moisture. Hard shell construction is lighter than canvas alternatives yet tougher engineered for durability without cutting corners. Sealed seams and quality zippers handle whatever weather the outback throws at you.
  • Solar Power Included: Integrated solar panel keeps your devices, lights, and essentials charged during the day. Perfect for off-grid adventures where there's no power available.
  • Ready to Install: Crossbars included, 12V socket with Anderson plug, solar mounting bracket, and three branded plates. Arrives as a complete package no need to hunt down accessories before you can hit the road.
  • Suited to Lifted Vehicles: 260cm ladder is designed for raised 4WDs and utes, so you're not stretching on your toes trying to climb up.
  • Works for Any 4WD: Whether it's a Hilux, Colorado, Ranger, LandCruiser, or Patrol, this compact hard shell tent adapts to standard roof rack and platform systems. No exotic mounting requirements.
  • Fast Setup & Pack Down: Unfold and extend done. After a couple of trips, setup takes around 5–10 minutes. No canvas to struggle with, no complicated hinges. Just smooth, solid engineering that works every time.
  • Low-Profile Design: Aerodynamic hard shell reduces wind drag and noise. Better fuel efficiency on long highway hauls, improved handling in crosswinds, and a sleek, modern look that suits any 4WD or touring build.

“So warm, comfy and cozy inside”

“Surprised my husband with one of the NOMAD 1.8m roof top tents with a 2M awning for his car. I don’t think I could have made him happier! We were so impressed with the quality of the tent, so warm, comfy and cozy inside, plus the set up with the awning was absolutely insane. I love the size of the awning, and to get up into your tent you won’t get wet from the rain.”

When does the launch sale end?

On 1 Nov. Until then you save up to $3,500 off the full price. No code needed, the saving is already in the price.

Hardshell or fold-out?

The 1.4M hardshell is quicker to open and packs down slimmer. The 1.8M fold-out gives you more floor, room for 2 to 3. See them side by side on the compare page.
