Roof tent for Volkswagen Tiguan

The Volkswagen Tiguan is one of those SUVs that feels natural for family travel, ski trips and longer camping weekends, especially when it has proper roof rails. Tiguan roof load depends strongly on generation and roof equipment. Tiguan I 2007-2016 is listed at around 75 kg without roof railings and around 100 kg with factory raised roof railings. Tiguan II 2016-2024 and Tiguan Allspace 2018-2024 are usually listed around 75 kg, and a conservative 75 kg value is also sensible for Tiguan III from 2024 onward until the exact owner's manual/handbook or vehicle technical certificate value is checked, if it is listed there.

Always confirm the exact year, roof type and roof-load value in the owner's manual/handbook or vehicle technical certificate, if it is listed there, before choosing a rooftop tent setup.

Tiguan I without roof railings uses a model-specific base carrier fitted to the factory mounting points under the roof frame. Tiguan I with raised roof railings, Tiguan II with raised roof rails, Tiguan Allspace with raised roof rails and Tiguan III from 2024 onward with open roof rails need raised-rail bars. Roof bars on this size of SUV usually weigh around 6-7 kg, so check the complete setup - tent, bars and mounting hardware together.

Universal roof bars from our range can also be used on Tiguan I 2007-2016 with factory raised roof railings, Tiguan II 2016-2024 with raised roof rails, Tiguan Allspace 2018-2024 with raised roof rails and Tiguan III from 2024 onward with open roof rails. For Tiguan without roof railings, use a model-specific Thule, Yakima or similar base carrier instead.
