FEATURES AND BENEFITS

• TOTAL AUTOMATION

  One-touch operation – that’s the goal, and that’s what ARB have achieved with the Altitude.

  With a simple push of a button, the Altitude tent utilises a completely automated electronic opening and closing sequence to have you ready in less than a minute. This process removes any manual interaction with the tent to ensure a convenient and hassle-free setup – giving you more time to focus on the better parts of camping. Of course, a manual failsafe option has been included for worst case scenarios.

  • Completely automated operation powered by 2x quality ARB electronic actuators on each side
  • Raising and lowering is made possible through the engineered steel scissor mechanism
  • Simple push button operation – with a single touch to start, the tent opens and closes all on its own
  • Actuator & tent control unit internalised for long term durability and protection from the elements
  • Lighting and tent controls easily & externally accessible from both sides

• ARB SMARTFOLD™ HINGE TECHNOLOGY

  Designing a tent that packs itself up is a dream concept, brought to reality by ARB’s specialised Engineering Team.

  The Altitude’s ARB SmartFold™ hinge technology design is what makes the tent truly hands-free. The clever two-piece hinge fully enfolds the Altitude tent’s fabric within the sleeping area during closing operation. This eliminates the arduous task of manually ensuring the canvas is folded into the tent when packing up, and gives a perfect close every time.

  ARB patented canvas hinge stays enable completely automated operation – no more tucking in canvas to close

  • A total of 6x canvas stays are sewn in
  • The hinge folds in on itself using a collapsing movement, designed by ARB engineers
  • Made from high grade steel to be both strong and durable

• PREMIUM LADDER

  Comfort and accessibility underpin the Altitude’s purpose, particularly highlighted by the innovative ladder design.

  The ladder’s steps are both larger and deeper than competitor alternatives, as well as being the only tent on the market featuring a handrail ensuring ease and safety for you and your family. The Altitude’s ladder also securely hooks onto the purpose-built mount, which features an amber and white light, illuminating the steps to increase visibility at night. The Altitude stores the ladder internally, removing the need to sacrifice precious tub or cargo space.

  • Robust & lightweight aluminium construction with 102kg / 225lbs ladder weight rating
  • Premium hand rails for ease of access & safety which fold for compact storage
  • Full sized steps (Each rung: 360x175mm) which angle to remain flat underfoot when attached

  • Innovative internal storage solution houses the ladder within the top shell of the tent

• SHELL DESIGN

  Functional and stylish – having the Altitude on your roof is a real statement.

  The Altitude’s fiberglass construction is finished in a premium cool grey colour embedded in the gel-goat, making it ready to stand the test of time. ARB’s engineering team have ensured that every contour is both perfect and purposeful, with focus on complimenting the vehicle curves. The body of the shell draws inspiration from the clean lines and angles found in modern 4WD design, adding to the overall aesthetic look whilst adding strength for long term durability across changing climates.

  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
