    My air beam tent sleeps 8, has a full standing height central area where people can get dressed, as well as two porches where shoes etc can be left. It cost us less than £1K. It packs away into the boot of the car, leaving the tow hitch free for towing a trailer and carrying our 5 bike rack simultaneously.

      I suppose, we’re thinking the same; problem is: every day someone stands up, and thinks, it is the ultimative idea to spend that money! And this is the reason, brands like that develop that stuff and do the marketing.
      People could only force other products out of them by not buying the overpriced stuff and doing it themselves until someone has an affordable solution.

      HA! You're obviously not a camper/overlander! There are a number of rooftop tents more expensive than that, and they sell plenty of them. There will be customers lined up to buy this. It solves many issues that roof tents have, and being able to detach it and go exploring for the day will sell many of them

      MUCH BETTER THAN ANY ROOF TENT, ALMOST FULL STANDING HEIGHT AND MUCH MORE ROOM AND PRICED ALMOST THE SAME AS A ROOF TENT WITH NO TOP HEAVY LOAD ON THE ROOF IF OFF ROADING. GOOD IDE BUT SLIGHTLY EXPENSIVE BUT SO ARE ROOF TENTS.

    All looked great until the €4k price tag. At €2.5k it competes with roof tents. €4k is valid, only if you need your roof for other cargo. Great idea, just saying they missed a trick with the pricing. No doubt it will sell, Thule products are superb, and always well made. As a matter of interest, where would you rather be if your car was stolen, asleep on the roof or asleep on the tow hitch?

    I really like this, it gets you up off the ground . Maybe a little expensive but A trailer with a tent 14k. And if you are in California speed limit is 55 mph with one of those. Not with this though. Prices are crazy 90k for a truck, just plain nuts. 50k and for an RV that’s just built to last two years. This is cheap compared to those options and you don’t have to buy insurance for it.

Nice one Thule for the concept but your on anther planet price wise.

      I've been to campgrounds that have had gravel spread on the site or that have compacted, hard, and uneven ground from over-use. One time I spent 45 minutes covering the area I wanted to put my tent on with leaves so it would have enough cushion to protect the tent bottom (and yes, I use a ground cloth/tarp) as well as be comfortable. With so many places requiring reservations, you don't know that before reserving.

    This & roof top tents are good for young whippersnappers but wait until you get older & wished you had a regular tent on the ground.
    Yes they’re good to be off the ground from crawley things & when you’re in a flood but nothing beats an old fashioned tent. I have a Springbar that I paid $3 at a thrift store. It was well used & it’s the best tent I’ve ever had. It’s easy to put up & down. Put the stakes down & it’s held up by 2 outside poles. It’s never gotten wet inside & have plenty of room with my Queen airbed inside a 11’x10’ tent. Just get a car topper to put your tent in along with other things. These tents are a disaster waiting to happen.

    The hitch mount and frame look good (presumably you can level it on a sloping pitch) but for EUR4000 its very small to holiday in, and very bulky to store! I can't help but think it would be better to lose the folding upper frame and replace it with an airbeam style tent so it is more like a trailer tent with a raised level bed area and an awning off to one side. Perhaps noseweight is an issue

    4 Thousand euros! No way. Good luck though, and I look forward to seeing some companies taking this example and adapting it. The concept has potential but it is only for smooth roads and not camping in rough country areas as it won't be stable enough with just the connection in the middle, going through rough stuff that throws a car around a bit, like getting onto a beach, will produce side to side motion that will twist it off the mount. I would have liked a tent that has an inflatable frame that can plug into a power adapter from a car and auto-inflate or a more innovative aluminium frame that can extend a bit higher.

    Really love the concept and surely you’re gonna be able to buy a rain cover and vestibule to add to it for extra cost. Sadly €4000 is way too expensive so about $6000CAD basic no accessories noway $2000/2500CAD Ok, but more than that nope. Love rooftop tent but cause of my lower back not for me so this option was much better for me and not directly on the ground even better. 👍

    It’s all very well being detachable from the car, but at 4,000 euros what’s to stop someone else just toeing it away when you are not there? There are roof tents being nicked in the UK and thus seems even easier to steal.

    Great idea but seems way to expensive and not sure how long it would survive driving along corrugate dirt roads in Australia. Would like to see a few reviews first before robbing a bank so i was able to buy one. But one huge advantage Being behind the SUV it wouldn't impact fuel economy at all compared to a rooftop tent

    For all you old people complaining in the comments about how people have gotten lazy by not using regular tents, vehicle tents are much more convenient for going on road trips as you don't have to worry about finding a field, forest or camping site to pitch and not to mention you have all that extra space for storage by having your vehicle. So thats an incredibly naive thing to say 😂

    I have watched several videos featuring this product. I have looked at a number of Thule camping products. I generally like what Thule does with racks and mounts. I think they bought another company as a first step into tents. I guess they did not retain the best engineers or designers from that company. This and their other products range from just plain dumb ideas to good idea executed poorly. I live in North America so maybe we have different camping problems to solve but I just don’t get it.
