Porsche's new roof tent works with most models, except the 718 and some 911s, and can hold up to 418 lb.
The tent folds into a hard shell for transport, and when deployed at a campsite it features 82.6 inches by 51.1 inches of floor space. The walls are made from a breathable cotton blend, and a polyfoam mattress is integrated into the floor. The tent also has two windows, insect guards, blackout curtains, and a rain cover for the entryway.Setup is fairly straightforward. Buyers pop open the hard shell, unfold the tent, deploy a telescopic ladder to the ground, and erect the poles.
Buyers can choose between black/light gray and black/dark gray two-tone schemes for the hard case, which also sports a Porsche logo. The only available interior color is light gray. Porsche is planning additional accessories, including an inner tent, a heated blanket, and a shoe and bag organizer. European deliveries are scheduled to begin in November, with a starting price equivalent to $4,958 at current exchange rates. That's a lot more than shoppers would expect to spend at REI. Thus far, Porsche hasn't confirmed U.S. availability.
