Stock Code: RTHTAC41The Gen 3-R is Alu-Cab's most advanced expedition tent – built for serious travel and effortless setup. Its low-profile, solar-ready shell is sleek and aerodynamic, while the insulated interior helps maintain a comfortable climate, no matter the conditions. Integrated LED lighting and USB-C ports add next-level convenience and there’s room to leave your bedding inside, so it’s ready to deploy the moment you park.
Why the Gen 3-R?
Because comfort shouldn’t be a compromise. The Gen 3-R offers expedition-grade durability with real-world usability – ideal for adventurers who want fast setup, smart storage and all-season performance without sacrificing modern comforts.
Made for cold climates it now includes a Heater Vent as a standard feature. Another all new feature is the integrated roof Solar panel input as a standard feature.
The load rating for the cargo rails on the tent roof is 50kg. It is important to note that where the load is located on the roof, will determine how easy or difficult it is to open the tent. It is always suggested to shift heavier loads towards the front of the tent, and much lighter loads, like a solar panel, to the rear.
NOTE: The tent does NOT INCLUDE any of the optional extras such as the OPTIONAL DROP DOWN TABLE or RECLINING BED Back Rest. These are optional extras available separately.
