Short Product Summary
The Alu-Cab LT-50 is a lightweight rooftop tent in black, weighing 46 kg without the mattress. It is aimed at anything from a compact crossover up to a full-size truck, and it ships with a ladder and rain cover.
Why This Product
A big rooftop tent is more than many trips call for, and it takes a toll on fuel and roof loading. The LT-50 keeps things simple: a low, streamlined aluminium shell, a proper mattress and quick setup for a spontaneous weekend or a trip for two.
Key Features

- Dual-layer 280gsm canvas – UV-resistant blackout ripstop with integrated midge nets
- Gas struts – stainless steel 316 marine-grade struts open the tent
- Three-point access – a door or window on each side
- 60mm foam mattress – high-density foam with a zip-off cover
- Top and bottom insulation – foam helps regulate temperature
Ideal For
- Solo travellers and couples a lightweight tent for spontaneous trips
- Owners of compact crossovers and similar listed for a wide range of vehicles
- Weekend campers quick to set up with no fuss
