23ZERO Armadillo AX2 – Aluminum Roof Tent For All Seasons Adventure

The 23Zero Armadillo AX2 roof tent elevates outdoor camping by combining rugged durability with premium comfort, making it ideal for year-round adventures. Built with a tough aluminum shell, it withstands extreme conditions while providing a spacious and cozy retreat wherever you roam.

Description

Its versatile side-opening design allows for right- or left-side deployment, ensuring compatibility with various vehicle setups while maintaining aerodynamics. The gas-strut-assisted X-frame enables quick setup and takedown, reducing effort after a long day on the trail. With 18” of headroom and expansive 360° views through large 49” x 21” side windows, this design maximizes both ventilation and visibility.

Inside, the Armadillo AX2 features a full-size sleeping platform (55” W x 81” L) with a 2” open-cell foam mattress and an anti-condensation mat for added comfort. The ECO13B fabric with Light Suppression Technology (LST) keeps the interior cool and dark, allowing for restful sleep even after sunrise. Additional highlights include a clear rainfly window for stargazing, built-in dimmable LED lighting, and internal organizer pockets for convenient storage.

Designed for durability, this tent boasts a reinforced aluminum shell and heavy-duty latches to protect against rain, snow, and dust. A preinstalled roof rack offers mounting options for solar panels or recovery gear. Ample internal storage, including a boot bag and ladder cover with compartments, enhances organization for overlanding and extended trips.
