TUFF-TREK® Ultralite 2 XL Roof Tent

Lightweight. Refined. Built for real adventure.

The TUFF-TREK® Ultralite2 XL Roof Tent is our newest and lightest-weight soft-top family roof tent, engineered specifically for modern vehicles with lower roof load ratings — without compromising comfort, durability, or year-round usability.

Featuring a brand-new lightweight construction, premium genuine polycotton ripstop canvas, and a curved roof design for improved rain shedding, the Ultralite introduces a fresh design language to the TUFF-TREK® range. From stargazing twin SkyWindows to a plush memory foam mattress and integrated LED lighting, this tent is built to punch well above its weight.

At just 62.5 kg net, the Ultralite 2 XL is still within the roof load rating for most cars, SUVs, crossovers, and lighter 4×4s — making family roof-top camping more accessible than ever.

The optional Lower Annex Room is a useful but lightweight 3x sided room, giving you somewhere to dress or sit if needed. 

For winter camping we do a specific new Thermal Liner and Strom Cover too!
