Alu-Cab Lightweight Rooftop Tent – Weekender

Lightweight Weekender Rooftop Tent by Alu-Cab – Black

The LT-50 Weekender is your go-to setup for spontaneous escapes.

Whether it’s a night at the coast or a weekend in the mountains, this kit keeps it simple, with everything you need to hit the road fast and sleep well under the stars.

Featuring the LT-50, our lightest rooftop tent yet, it’s designed to move as easily as you do.

The lightest rooftop tent on the market with the same build quality as all our other products. You don’t need to be an overlander to live your best life; the LT-50 opens up a new opportunity for vehicle applications. It pops up within seconds, allowing you to keep your bedding inside, and it can carry a 30kg load on top.

One of the standout features of the Alu-Cab rooftop tent is its lightweight construction, which features a nut slot lid and base frame for easy mounting of accessories, such as awnings, shower cubes, ladder brackets, and spades. The tent is made from lightweight, high-strength aluminium, which makes it easy to install and transport. The tent also features a compact, streamlined design that minimises wind resistance while driving.

• Overall, the Alu-Cab lightweight rooftop tent is an excellent choice for adventurers who value durability, convenience, and comfort.
• The LT-50 is the ideal tent for vehicles that typically cannot support the Gen-3 range of tents, such as the Subaru Outback/Crosstrek, Toyota RAV4, and many more.
• The LT-50 is not intended to replace the Gen 3-R, but rather to serve as an alternative for customers who do not require the full features of the 3-R for a more weekend lifestyle.

Cargo Rail Load Rating

The load rating for the cargo rails on the rooftop tent roof is 30kg. It is essential to note that the location of the load on the roof will determine how easily or how difficult it is to open the tent.

It is always recommended to place heavier loads towards the front of the tent and lighter loads, such as a solar panel, towards the rear.

Please ensure that you check the dynamic load rating of your vehicle before adding additional weight to the LT-50.

Alu-Cab advises to not exceed the speed limit of 120kmh.
