Protected from ground cold, wind and rain, the BDV offers you a safe and dry place to sleep very close to nature. Because it starts directly in front of the large windows of your car roof tent, from which you have a clear view of your surroundings at all times. The elevated sleeping area on the roof of your car means that even crawling animals have no chance of paying you a nightly visit.
Perfect ventilation
Extra wide windows and the large entrance ensure that you have a clear view of the surroundings. Enjoy plenty of fresh air, spectacular views by day and night and the feeling of boundless freedom. The tent openings of your roof tent can be closed with mosquito nets and the windows additionally with clear windows.
A Rainfly provides additional protection in case of rain. If you don’t need it, it can simply be rolled up over the tent entrance.

The hard shell of your roof tent can do so much more than just be a roof over your head. The BDV allows you to attach any gear to the outside of your rooftop tent – from an axe to a solar panel for self-sufficient camping in the great outdoors. Well thought-out extensions for your Wedge roof tent make it possible.

Technical data
Frequently asked questions
Will the rooftop tent fit on my car?
The roof tent can be mounted on almost any vehicle that has a dynamic roof load of at least 60 or 75 kg. You only need two cross braces/load carriers. The roof tent is simply attached to the crossbars or roof rack with the provided mounting brackets. We do not recommend mounting directly on a roof rail, as the distance to the roof is very small and the screws used could cause scratches. So you need crossbars/load carriers even with a roof rail.
We are happy to offer you suitable carriers for your vehicle directly at the time of purchase.
But with me the roof tent weighs too much?
For most vehicles, the roof load is between 75 – 100 kg. However, this specification refers to the load during driving! When stationary, the weight acting on the roof may be significantly higher.
Remember: In the event of a rollover, the car must be able to lie on its roof.
