A road trip is also enjoyed at a rest stop. The Esperance V2 welcomes your night in a sleeping area of about 143 × 200 cm, with a 50 mm foam mattress and a removable cover.
- Air and light: openings with mosquito nets and high vents.
- Your belongings at hand: inner and outer storage pockets.
- A simpler departure: possibility to keep compact bedding inside, if it allows a full closure without forcing.
Light the camp. Recharge the essentials.
Reading before sleep, finding a item or lighting access to the tent: the internal and externalLEDs provide real daily comfort.
The control box gathers USB-A, USB-C, and 12 V sockets. The integrated wiring and the provided 3-meter Anderson cable simplify connection to your installation.
Plan for a suitable 12 V power supply and respect the electrical limits indicated by ARB for connected devices.
From the road to the bivouac, in just a few gestures.
Upon arrival, unlock the handles, lift the shell, and deploy the tent. The telescopic ladder provides access to the sleeping area, with inclined steps to ease ascent.
Once folded, the shell protects the tent during transport. An attractive format for travelers who alternate short stops, outdoor weekends, and longer stays.
Initial mounting on the vehicle and deployment at the campsite are two separate operations. Follow the instructions ARB for assembly and use.

Is it suitable for your 4x4 or pickup?
The choice depends on the overall vehicle, support and fasteners. To prepare your installation, check these three points:
- Permissible loads: those of the vehicle and the support, while in motion and at rest, taking into account all carried equipment.
- The mounting bracket: dimensions, spacing of bars and compatibility of fasteners with the prescriptions ARB.
- The available space: total height, ladder deployment and the clearance needed to open the tent.
Send us the model and year of your vehicle, as well as the reference of your bars, your rack, or your Bed Truck Accessories.

Your questions about the ARB Esperance V2.
Can the tent accommodate three people?
The stated capacity is two adults and one child. To choose with confidence, compare the sleeping area of about 143 × 200 cm with your needs.
Can the bedding be left inside?
Yes, compact bedding can stay inside the tent when folded. Ensure its thickness allows you to close and lock the shell completely without forcing.
Is it compatible with all vehicles?
Compatibility must be checked for your installation: allowable load, support, fixings and deployment space. The vehicle height alone does not confirm compatibility.
Do the sockets and LEDs operate without external power?
The integrated electrical system must be connected to an appropriate 12 V source. The sockets allow connection of compatible devices, within the limits indicated by ARB.
Are the Annex and the paint included?
These are two options sold separately. Please consult their datasheets to learn about pricing, conditions and availability at the time of order.
