Rooftop tents, and the entire overlanding industry, have been booming since the pandemic hit and folks suddenly remembered that nature is beautiful and important. Roofnest’s new Falcon 3 EVO tent separates itself from the crowd by being the most aerodynamic rooftop tent on the market. It also manages to have more internal storage than all other clamshell tents, and it still allows owners to store light bedding inside when the clamshell is closed.

The Falcon 3 EVO tents feature a blackout coating that keeps things dark until you want to let the light in, and both sizes have HVAC ports. Compared to Roofnest’s Falcon 2 EVO, the Falcon 3 EVO is shorter and lighter, yet has 38 percent more interior space. Falcon 3 EVO tents also have two side windows, an overhead moonroof, and two meter-long dimmable LED light strips.

The standard Falcon 3 EVO opens to a height of 58 inches and has interior measurements of 80 inches tall by 47 inches wide, while the XL opens to 64 inches, and the XL tent houses interior dimensions of 85 inches by 57 inches. Both sizes feature a 2-inch-thick memory foam mattress and both come with 7.5-foot ladders.
