FAQ
1. Is the 140L right for me?

The 140L is right for you if you are looking for a comfortable, protective rooftop tent while staying in a small format. At 58 kg, it can easily fit on all car models, while providing a real comfort gain with its protective roof overhang against rain.

2. Who would you recommend the 140L to first?

The 140L is very well suited:

  • for a couple or 2 friends
  • for a solo adventurer who enjoys outdoor activities
  • for 2 adults and 1 child
  • for 1 adult and 2 children depending on sleeping habits
3. Is the 140L really suitable for a family?

Yes, it is very well suited for a family thanks to its annex: 2 people on top and 2 people below. The 140L makes sense if the goal is comfort and outdoor living around the rooftop tent.

However, if your priority is more about quick opening and having a compact rooftop tent, without intending to live around it, the 140S or 160S will be more suitable.

4. What is the real advantage of the 140L over the 140S?

The real advantage of the 140L is its more family-oriented approach, focused on comfort and living around the tent for staying 2 or 3 days in the same spot.

With its rain-protective roof overhang, the 140L offers a living space under the tent, even without the annex as an accessory, providing a true opportunity to enjoy the full rooftop tent experience.

In summary:

  • 140L: more sheltering, better suited for family stays
  • 140S: more manoeuvrable, easier to fold, more affordable
5. Does the 140L annex really change the bivouac experience?

Yes, that is precisely what makes the 140L strong: its 7.29 m² annex allows you to build a truly spacious, mobile and functional bivouac.

It is ideal for:

  • Easily storing your equipment
  • Setting up your kitchen
  • Enjoying a comfortable dining area
  • Installing two camp beds to create 2 additional sleeping spaces
  • Giving your pet its travel kennel
  • Supporting your family's growth in bivouac as children get older
6. Why choose a 140L rather than a Taiga Pro or Taiga Z?

The 140L remains an excellent choice if you are looking for a soft, relatively lightweight and more affordable rooftop tent than a hardshell model. At 58 kg, it remains easier to mount on many cars, vans or 4x4s.

In comparison, the Taiga Pro (90 kg) and Taiga Z (95 kg) bring superior user comfort in certain aspects, particularly through faster opening and closing, fewer operations and a panoramic terrace to better enjoy the surroundings. But this higher-end level also means a higher price and a significant weight constraint.

7. Is the choice between a folding soft rooftop tent 140S / 140L and a Taiga hardshell only about price?

The right choice depends above all on your way of travelling.
The 140S will be perfect if you are looking for a soft, lightweight, compact and faster-folding model.
The 140L will be better suited if you prefer more comfort in use, a roof overhang and a more family-oriented configuration.
The Taiga Z / Pro are aimed more at those who want a hardshell with terrace, real time savings in daily use and a more complete bivouac experience.

The choice therefore depends not only on the budget, but also on your travel rhythm, the expected comfort level and the compatibility with your vehicle.

Advanced Fabric Technology – Unique Patented System

The Swisskings brand fabric is tested and certified by SGS, offering an exceptional balance between breathability, comfort, strength and durability when facing harsh outdoor conditions.

Technical fabric specifications:
- Material: The fabric used is a technical textile S320 made from synthetic fibers, featuring a ripstop reinforcement structure (10-point plaid) and a functional coating.
- Waterproof rating: 10,000 mm water column, ensuring complete protection against rain.
- Exceptional breathability: 1,164.2 g/m²/h, allowing internal moisture to escape and preventing condensation.
- Water Repellency Spray Test: Score of 95/100 (AATCC TM22-2017), guaranteeing excellent water repellency.
- UV resistance: Rated 4.5/5, providing effective protection against prolonged sun exposure.
- Free from harmful substances: Compliant with environmental regulations and guaranteed phthalate-free.

What does a 10,000 mm water column mean?

A value of 10,000 mm means that:

  • the fabric can withstand the pressure exerted by a 10-meter-high column of water
  • without allowing water to penetrate

👉 In practical terms:

  • 10,000 mm = heavy rain + wind
  • pressure far higher than standard vertical rainfall
  • considered highly waterproof for outdoor textiles

What is the Water Repellency Spray Test?

The Water Repellency Spray Test measures a fabric’s ability to repel water. With a score of 95/100, the Swisskings fabric effectively repels water and ensures a dry interior, even during heavy rainfall.

Why this test is relevant for a rooftop tent

For a rooftop tent, the Spray Test verifies that:

  • water beads and runs off the fabric,
  • the fabric does not saturate quickly,
  • breathability remains effective (less saturation = less condensation),
  • comfort is maintained in light to heavy rain.

Why is a breathability rating of 28,000 g/m²/24 h essential?

This high value indicates the fabric’s ability to evacuate internal moisture. The Swisskings fabric can transmit approximately 1.164 kg of water vapor per m² per hour, and nearly 28,000 g/m²/24 h.

Unlike many rooftop tents on the market, Swisskings fabric has been independently tested by SGS according to the JIS L 1099:2021 (Method B1) standard.

This level of performance places Swisskings fabric among the very high-end outdoor materials, comparable to certain benchmark membranes, while retaining all the essential qualities required for a rooftop tent:

  • Thermal comfort: prevents heat and moisture buildup
  • Optimal ventilation: reduces condensation
  • Consistently dry interior: ideal for humid climates
  • Weather protection
  • Durability
  • Wind resistance

Why is a fabric free from harmful substances essential?

Some phthalates are classified as CMR substances (carcinogenic, mutagenic or reprotoxic) or as endocrine disruptors. As they are not permanently bound to plastics, they may gradually migrate into the air, dust or through direct contact.

Swisskings has developed a PVC-free technical fabric, compliant with current European regulations (REACH) and free from phthalates classified as SVHC.

“Is the Swisskings fabric safe for health, including for children or during prolonged use?”

The materials used for Swisskings rooftop tents have been tested using gas chromatography (GC), a reference analytical method allowing precise identification and quantification of regulated substances.

Test results show a level of 50 mg/kg, while the limit set by the European Union is 1,000 mg/kg, meaning a value 20 times below the authorized threshold.

This compliance ensures safe use, including during prolonged use in confined environments such as a rooftop tent, and within a family setting.

Swisskings prioritizes materials that meet European standards to ensure an optimal balance between performance, durability and user safety.

Advanced Base Technology

The base is designed with a sandwich panel featuring an aluminum honeycomb core, ensuring:

  • Lightweight: Easy to handle and install.
  • Rigidity: Ultra-strong and resistant structure.
  • Durability: Excellent resistance to fire, corrosion, and impact.
