Thule Approach S
2-person roof top tent fennel tan
On top of the world, on the top of your car. Thule Approach is a tent that makes adventure travel easier, more comfortable, and more fun. The car top tent maximizes interior space, giving you a great place to hang out in, as well as a comfortable night’s sleep. For an even more spacious experience, the tent is compatible with an annex or awning (sold separately). Made for rugged adventures off the beaten path, this rooftop tent is equally great for local explorations or weekend getaways with family and friends. Transform your vehicle into a home away from home and live the van-life experience no matter what you drive—SUV, sedan, truck, or hatchback.
A more modern tent shape delivers an extra spacious interior and more living space for you and your gear
Panoramic skylights and windows allow you to stargaze, get closer to nature, and keep the tent cool and well ventilated
Lockable mounting brackets secure the tent to your roof racks in half the time of traditional rooftop tents and have a torque limiting tool for safer installation
Removable rain cover with three different modes is suitable for any weather
Quick to set up: unzip the travel cover, unfold the base and you are ready to camp in under 3 minutes
Thick, dual-layer foam mattress has a supportive bottom foam layer and a soft upper layer for a luxurious camping experience
Compatible with an annex or awning (sold separately) that provides even more sheltered space
Rigorously tested together with Thule roof racks to ensure a safe and secure fit

Tested to the limit
At the Thule Test Center™ in Hillerstorp, Sweden, our car tents go through extremely rigorous testing before they are deemed worthy of the Thule logo. Below are just a few examples of the many tests conducted.
Explore Thule test center
Rain and wind tests
Our state-of-the-art rain chamber simulates torrential rain and our industrial-sized fan blows at high speeds to ensure that the tent can withstand the worst weather
Multi-axis shaker table
This test simulates a vehicle driving great distances with a car tent to ensure that the tent, car racks, and car roof all fit securely and stand the test of time
Climate cycle test
We place a tent in a climate cycle chamber and subject it to high and low humidity, as well as extreme winter and summer temperatures to ensure that it can handle any weather
City Crash test
We conduct multiple crash tests at different speeds and weights to ensure the car tent will stay on your car at all costs
