LÉGÈRE MAIS SPACIEUSE

22 août, 2022

Drawing heritage from the beautiful beaches and crystal clear waters of one of Western Australia’s most renowned coastal environments, the Esperance Rooftop Tent expands ARB’s rooftop tent family. ARB’s first ever hardshell tent is a super lightweight, slimline and contemporary looking hard shell rooftop tent. With convenience-centric design in mind, the Esperance is quick and effortless both to set up and to pack down. With features such as an internal telescopic ladder, gas strut assisted opening and only three push-lock ratchet straps, travelling with the Esperance is a breeze.

Weighing just 56 kilograms, the Esperance is our lightest rooftop tent. Boasting a compact design taking up a small footprint on the roof, the Esperance features a slick and lightweight ABS acrylic compound shell, providing an aerodynamic solution to travel accommodation.

The unique shape and finish of the Esperance casing keeps noise levels to a minimum, ensuring happy passengers and greater fuel economy. The 310-millimetre low profile maximises vehicle clearance, keeping your investment safe from low-hanging branches while travelling and allowing access into carparks or other tight spaces when you’re back home. A tried and tested material used on ARB canopies, the ABS shell features a padded interior to provide greater insulation when sleeping and reduce condensation on the inside of the tent.

Continuing the compact, clever design, the Esperance features a lightweight telescopic ladder that can be fully collapsed and is stored within the hardshell pod. The ladder also includes a cover to protect the canvas of the tent itself from dirt that may cause abrasion during transport.

CONFORT MATÉRIEL

Cosy up in comfort with the well-loved features of an ARB rooftop tent. The Esperance boasts a four-centimetre thick, high-density foam mattress topped with a three-layered quilted polyester peach skin.

The Esperance Rooftop Tent is capable of accommodating not just the mattress, but also compact bedding can be housed in the tent while not in use, freeing up much sought-after space in your vehicle, as well as allowing you to get comfortable in bed at your destination sooner. The tent also features storage pockets on both the left- and right-hand sides, handy for small items such as phones and keys.

The Esperance features an accessories pocket, especially designed for those smaller items that don’t usually have a home but you need close at hand like sunscreen, sunglasses and insect repellent. Back by popular demand, two shoe pockets are also included in the Esperance. With two shoe pockets, you can wear your shoes right to the tent without dragging muddy or sandy footwear into the sleeping space. Plus, you’re almost guaranteed to keep your shoes free of bothersome little animals that might enter overnight. Both accessory additions feature waterproof, silver-coated covers to protect any stored items from the weather.

LED light strips included both within the tent itself as well as at the top of the ladder (under the footprint) provide a means for lighting up the night. No matter what time you arrive to your new campsite, these bright little lights allow for a convenient set-up and functionality within the tent. The LED lighting within the tent is built into the rooftop tent poles, which means no wires hanging for you to snag on, and the switch offers on and off as well as a fully dimmable option. The outside lighting for the Esperance can also be controlled inside the tent for even greater convenience.

CHAMBRE AVEC VUE

Même si la tente de toit Esperance est ultra compacte repliée, une fois installée, la tente offre un intérieur spacieux avec des dimensions dépliée de 2 m de long par 1,52 m de large et 1,2 m de haut pouvant facilement accueillir deux adultes. Avec une hauteur intérieure maximum de 1,13 m, la tente Esperance vous permet de vous assoir confortablement et de profiter des vues sur votre environnement grâce à deux grandes fenêtres latérales et à la célèbre fenêtre pour l’observation des étoiles ARB.

Offering more than just fantastic viewing potential, the expansive windows facilitate air flow in the warm months, allowing you to get a good night’s rest at the end of a long day of adventuring. The sides of the windows have gussets fitted that can be zipped up in unfavourable conditions, maintaining ventilation without letting in the weather and also reducing condensation within the tent.

INSTALLATION

La tente Esperance et les autres tentes de toit ARB offrent de nombreuses possibilités d’installation en fonction de ce sur quoi elles sont fixées (galerie BASE, poutres transversales ou autres plateformes de toit). Discutez de votre option préférée avec votre concessionnaire ARB.

Contrairement à une tente classique, vous pouvez camper avec votre véhicule, même sur de plus petits bivouacs, sans faire de compromis en matière d’espace et de confort. Avec la majeure partie de la base couvrant le toit de votre voiture, peu d’espace est nécessaire est dehors de celui de votre véhicule.
