Comfort was a primary focus during the Altitude tent’s concept and design, featuring a full-size double bed and a 70mm thick mattress for plush cushioning. With convenience in mind, the Altitude’s roof liner has been moulded to accommodate for blankets and pillows to be left within the tent when packed down and acts as a second layer of insulation between the outer shell and bedding area.
A premium tent is only as good as its surroundings and the Altitude is no different, encapsulating you in premium canvas.
Both breathable and durable, the 380gsm heavy-duty canvas is one of the strongest on market and protects occupants and ensures a no-compromise good night’s sleep. Providing a 360-degree panoramic view of your surroundings, easily achieved by simply unzipping each corner and door. The Altitude also comes with an array of purposeful storage compartments, including bed head pockets and netting attached to the roof. Each corner includes a drink bottle holder, phone pocket, and an accessory pocket to house everything needed, and at easy reach, throughout the night.

12V POWER
Packing in the ‘good to haves’ as well as the ‘must haves’, the Altitude’s range of 12v features ensure you won’t need to leave.
The Altitude is powered from the vehicle’s battery either via hard wire or plugged directly into a 12V Anderson plug. The cleverly-engineered power isolation feature ensures no battery draw when the Altitude tent is closed, turning off all lights and other load drawing devices once shut. Control climate through the integrated roof fan, featuring high and low speed settings, and in or out directional blow settings. The interior is illuminated with a white or ambient amber light strip along the roof edge, ensuring full visibility and comfort when the sun goes down. Dual USB sockets allow for easy charging of phones and tablets and the unique provision for magnetic or suction cup mounts enables easy viewing whilst charging your devices.

SAFETY & SECURITY
With safety front of mind, the Altitude has been heavily tested in various environments and climates.
An internal control box has been installed that includes a failsafe isolator to prevent the tent being controlled once inside, and includes a cigarette and USB C socket for even more device powering/charging options. Although being rigorously tested in various conditions, in the unlikely case of electrical failure a manual override system has been included, providing owners with peace of mind in emergency situations. The Altitude also includes a locking handle on either side of the tent – simply turn the locks to fix the tent in place and key lock before you head on the road.
- Red rocker switch isolates power to external controls for overnight security
- Manual emergency release designed in for worst case scenario’s, enabling the actuators to be bypassed and manually lifted
- ARB lockable D-handle locks for a secure close

WEATHER AND CLIMATE
Altitude is a four-season tent. ARB Engineers have included a host of premium features to keep you going – in all weather.
Designed with drainage points in each corner of the base, the Altitude ensures that during heavy rainfall the Altitude tent won’t carry water in the shell. Grommets have been installed in each corner to block the drainage holes when closed, preventing dust ingress whilst on the move. To prevent potential wind-drag and road noise, a wind deflector has been designed for the front of the Altitude.
- Water drainage holes in each external shell corner, designed and tested for use in 4 seasons. Drain holes covered automatically during in transit combatting dust ingress
- Weatherproof external zippers
- Integrated front wind deflector
ROOF STORAGE
The Altitude is cargo and accessory friendly, with the ability to store items on top, utilizing in-built aluminum rails with integrated T slots.
A load capacity of 20kg allows a multitude of carrying options without scarifying functionality. The Altitude also accommodates the attachment of a crossbar kit further increasing the options of accessories and cargo that can be carried. For additional power, the purpose-engineered 120W solar panel accessory kit, installed on the Altitude’s roof, provides peace of mind when heading off grid. The best bit is that the actuators can support 20kgs to open even whilst loaded, meaning the surfboard or skis don’t have to come off to jump into bed.
- Sleek roof rails with integrated T-slot mounting channels for a range of accessories
- 20kg roof load carrying capacity
- Tent is able to lift while loaded with its capacity
- Ladder accessible via rear hatch which is secured via 2x lockable D-handles, and spring loaded to automatically hold open for easy ladder retrieval
