23Zero Armadillo AX3 Rooftop Tent
The 23Zero Armadillo AX3 roof tent redefines the outdoor camping experience, offering a blend of rugged durability and luxurious comfort for all-season use. This aluminum roof tent is designed to withstand the harshest environments while providing a cozy and spacious retreat wherever your adventures take you.
The side-opening design is deployable in the right or left-side configuration, making it adaptable to various vehicle setups without compromising aerodynamics. Its gas-strut-assisted X-frame allows for rapid deployment and pack-down, saving you time and effort after a long day on the trails. The raised X-frame design not only provides 18” of headroom but also enhances 360-degree views through large 45” x 19” side windows, optimizing ventilation and visibility.
Inside, the Armadillo AX3 roof tent features a generously sized sleeping platform – wider than a queen and just shy of a king (68” W x 80” L) – providing extra room to stretch out without the bulk of a full king. A 2” open-cell foam mattress and anti-condensation mat deliver superior comfort. ECO13B fabric with Light Suppression Technology (LST) keeps the interior cooler and darker, allowing you to sleep in past sunrise. Additional touches include a clear rainfly window for stargazing, built-in dimmable LED lighting, and internal organizer pockets to keep your essentials close at hand.
The Armadillo AX3 is engineered with durability in mind, featuring a robust aluminum shell and heavy-duty latches to protect against rain, snow, and dust. A preinstalled roof rack allows you to mount solar panels or recovery gear. With ample internal storage, including a boot bag and ladder cover with additional compartments, this roof tent offers convenience for overlanding and camping.
