Roof tents, trunk modules, showers, and awnings: All the accessories to turn your car into a home on wheels.

Many brands now offer a wide range of camping accessories—tents, awnings, showers, etc.— for some models in their range . A clear example is the Opel Frontera, which can be purchased with a tent attached to the roof.
Specifically, on its optional roof rails, it can support a stationary load of up to 240 kg. Or, in other words, a Thule Foothill tent. When folded, it measures just 24 cm high and 61 cm wide, so it can also carry a bicycle or kayak. Quick and easy to open for one person, it offers a classic, breathable, rainproof tent for two people. Simply insert the telescopic poles, and access and exit are via an attached ladder.

Another example is an awning, simply an item that easily attaches to a vehicle's roof rack crossbars and offers 270 degrees of coverage. It offers sun protection and is water resistant.

You can also get a portable car shower, a foldable outdoor shower with a zippered roof rack. They take up very little space and are height-adjustable.

The Dacia Jogger can fit one to fit the entire trunk space. It unfolds in less than two minutes to create a large double bed with a mattress and a 220-liter cargo space, complete with a lid.

Just like the rear of the Citroën Berlingo, which accommodates a sleeping area for two people, with a shower and refrigerator. It also includes a table for both inside and outside use.

A two-person tent can be attached to the roof racks of most Porsche models—with or without rails. The interior has two side windows and another one in the roof.

A neoprene tent can also be adapted to the Jimny's roof, allowing you to sleep anywhere. The module weighs only 45 kg and measures 2.1 meters.

A two- or three-person tent with a sleeping area is attached to the rear hatch of the Dacia Bigster, and a camping table and chairs can also be placed in the entrance hall.

Camping in the Volkswagen Caddy is easy with a rear tent that attaches to the body, a removable kitchen, and folding chairs and tables.

There's a roof tent for the Land Rover 110. With a lightweight fiberglass shell, it deploys with one hand in seconds. For two adults, it includes a cotton mattress, pillows, an interior light, and a storage net.

A roof-top tent is also a type of folding tent. For a Jeep, for example, you simply unfold or fold it, as there are no pegs or guy lines. Made with textile fibers, it's tear-resistant, breathable, and waterproof.
