Frequently Asked Questions

Which roof tent on a VW bus?

Thanks to the relatively large roof area and the high roof load of over 100 kg, both small and very large roof tents fit on the VW Bus. A roof tent for four people usually weighs between 90 kg and 95 kg, making it a good fit on the Camper Van.

How much roof load does a VW bus have?

Depending on the model, a VW bus has a roof load of between 100 kg and 150 kg, as specified by Volkswagen. You can find the exact roof load for your vehicle model in the owner's manual.

VW Bus pop-up roof vs. roof tent?

The major advantage of a roof tent over a VW bus with a pop-up roof is its flexibility. You can remove the roof tent at any time and use the roof rack platform instead as storage space for cargo boxes or other accessories. The sleeping area is also an important consideration, as a 220 cm roof tent, for example, offers significantly more space than a pop-up roof. Retrofitting a pop-up roof on a VW bus is usually more expensive than purchasing a roof tent.
