Space for 2 people with a child or a trio team of travelers
For your convenience, we have created subcategories for roof tents, distinguishing them by sleeping area. We have a division into smaller, family tents, and here you will find car roof tents ideal for 2-3 people, comfortable both if you are traveling with a child and with friends. In this subcategory, we have assigned tents with a mattress 140 cm wide and much larger ones with a width of 160 cm. Of course, it may turn out that 160 cm is the ideal surface even for a 2+2 family, it all depends on individual preferences.
The space needed and the method of setting up the roof tent
Yes… Everyone has their own individual preferences regarding the space needed to sleep comfortably. It is worth comparing our preferences (regarding the sleeping area) with the type of roof tent, whether we want a tent that opens within the outline of the car, or we are also considering a tent that opens beyond the outline of the car. Why?
In the case of tents that open in the outline of a car, the maximum width of the mattress is 140 cm, and the length 205 cm. The size of the folded tent, measured with the frame, is 150x220 cm. Tents of such dimensions will work well on station wagons, SUVs, off-road vehicles and vans.
If you have a smaller hatchback or sedan car, roof tents that extend beyond the outline of the car will be a better choice. With compact dimensions, you get a large sleeping area, ideal for 3 people, up to 160x250 cm. And if you want even more space, take a look at the family tents category. There you will find tents with a mattress measuring up to 250x200 cm.
