This is possible however, it depends on the type of tent and roof rack. If your tent is a Duö, the rack may or may not have a ridge. If your tent is a Quatrö or a Family, the rack should not have a ridge that would interfere with the opening of the tilting floor on the right-hand side. Moreover, the bars must not be too far apart, nor too close, in order to be able to secure the NuFix fastening system. Do not hesitate to send us photos of your roof rack so that we can help.
First of all, to install a tent on your vehicle your vehicle must be equipped with two roof bars supporting the weight of the Hussarde when it is folded (minimum 55 kg for the Duö, 63 kg for the TriUp and 75 kg for the Quatrö /Family). These bars can easily be found on the internet and in car ...
No however, there are nevertheless recommended international safety standards for roof boxes and fastening systems. For your safety, we have had our tents tested by a reputable official certification body. These tests consist of putting the tent through extreme situations (City crash, shear-off simulations, intense vibrations on a track, accelerated aging, sea fog, etc.). These tests are part of the ISO 11154M standard have all been successfully passed.
Yes, absolutely; simply equip the trailer with the equivalent of two roof bars, firmly attached. Installation and use is the same as on a car roof, the difference is that the Hussarde will be closer to the ground, and therefore the ladder deployed will be shorter.

Your Hussarde stays with you! Equip your new car with two roof bars supporting the weight of your Hussarde (minimum, depending on the empty weight and without mattress, 55 kg for the Duö to 75 kg for the Quatrö/Family). Please note however, we do not recommend low price bars at all, such as those at Feu Vert for the Duster. You can also lend your Hussarde! Installation and uninstallation is as indicated in the question “How do I install a Hussarde on my vehicle?”.
Of course. Two roof bars or a roof rack (but without ridges!) will suffice. Of course, it is possible to have three or even four roof bars. In this case add 1 additional pair of NuFix fastenings per bar (so 2 pairs more for 2 more roof bars).
Options for tall vehicles are available: larger ladder, remote locking systems, etc.

It depends on the speed and size of the vehicle. The shell of the Hussardes has been studied aerodynamically in order to present a very low Cx (drag coefficient). On the road at 80 km/h, the additional consumption is not noticeable. On the motorway, depending on the size of the vehicle, overconsumption varies from almost nothing (large vehicle) to 20% (small vehicle). Speed has a significant impact so we recommend reducing it to limit consumption.
Here is the main information to remember: the Hussarde tents fit all vehicles (city cars, SUV, van, van, 4×4, etc.) equipped with transverse roof bars capable of supporting the weight of the folded tent. This is the main condition. Firstly, there is no fastening directly on the roof of the ...
