The Tepui Explorer Autana 4 is a 3-season softshell fold-out rooftop tent with an included annex, aluminum base, and 600D polyester ripstop fabric. It sleeps 4, weighs 155 lbs, includes a 2.5-inch mattress, and takes approximately 5 minutes to set up.

Why this product
The Autana 4 scales the annex-equipped design to 4-person capacity at 155 lbs. That weight-to-capacity ratio with an included annex is hard to match. Same 600D polyester ripstop and 2.5-inch mattress as the 3-person model. The 5-minute setup is standard for fold-outs. If you need family capacity with an annex and want to keep weight reasonable, this competes well against similar setups that require purchasing the annex separately.
