1 - Easy-to-use handle to open and close in a flash. The reliable function is assured by a mechanism consisting of screw jacks linked by a chain drive system within the structure.
2 - This opening system is reliable, lasts forever and needs no maintenance. It is operated by a removable handle. When the tent is open it will remain steady even in stormy weather conditions. In addition, it is appreciated because it adjusts the tension of the fabrics so they are always taut: even after years, the fabrics do not go limp, so stability is maintained, along with good weather-proofing and the appearance of the tent.
3 - The handle is also an anti-theft device for your contents stored inside, as the shell cannot be opened without the handle.).








1 - The aerodynamic design coupled with its ample storage capacity will allow you to safeguard all your overnight items, camping/travel accessories, sporting equipment and valuables from all weather conditions.
2 - All tent models have 2 doors (one each side) and 2 windows (one each end). Each opening is equipped with zip fasteners and mosquito mesh screens.
3 - Roll up, roll down mosquito net with two zip fasteners.

HIGH QUALITY TEXTILES
You can’t control the weather. But in a violent storm, in high winds or blistering temperatures, Autohome has the right answer for comfortable tent life. The AIRLANDER, AIRLANDER PLUS, GRAND TOUR, EXTREME and AIRTOP models have always used prestige Dralon® (a Bayer textile). Unlike plasticized, coated or simply cotton fabrics, Dralon® is waterproof, strong and, above all, breathable. Every square centimeter of Dralon® helps to renew the air naturally, for genuine wellbeing and comfort inside the tent. The particular design of the fabric ensures insulation against both the heat and cold, and keeps off glare and excessive sunlight.

THE TRUTH ABOUT BREATHABILITY
Breathability: 50.8 mm/s
Pick any portion of the fabric and hold it to your mouth. Blow hard. If you can feel the air on the palm of your hand, it means the fabric is breathable. With a breathable fabric you never feel the lack of air and can
breathe easily even when it is a hot night. And there are no draughts because you don’t need to leave the windows open to get rid of the moisture in the air.
HIGH TECH TEXTILES
Condensation is a natural phenomenon in a campsite tent. When the outside temperature falls below the temperature inside the tent, the moisture in the air condenses on the inside walls of the tent in the form of water droplets. This usually happens in the evening, at night or at high altitude when the fabric is coldest. On the basis of many years of experience with the best materials, Autohome has chosen high-quality Airtex® for its new Airlander Plus 360° X-Large, Grand Tour 360° and Airtop 360° models. Airtex® is extremely versatile, is waterproof and strong, and transmits water vapour rapidly, removing it from inside the tent. So condensation is no longer a problem.
THE TRANSMISSION OF WATER VAPOUR
Transmission speed: 440g/mq/24hrs
Airtex® is a fabric that does not trap water vapour inside the tent but removes it naturally. This is the great difference with plasticized polyester, which is airtight and therefore creates moisture and condensation.

ARTISAN QUALITY IN MASSPRODUCTION

As for most of the versions of Autohome roof tents, the shells are made of fiberglass.
Fiberglass is a particular fabric fiber interweaved and soaked in resinous liquid substances or polyester.
This material is also known as GRP, glass reinforced plastic (GFK in German).
The above mentioned really expensive liquid resins, once adequately mixed with catalyzing or accelerating additives, are manually spread with hairy roller brushes on a glassy fabric previously lay on open stamps.
In this way, while solidifying, the liquid resin incorporates the glassy fibers and creates the fiberglass.
It is a laborious process by hand but it is surely worthy the quality of the result.
Fiberglass is very widespread within the building industry and used especially for roofs and other industrial and urban coverings.
It does not get warm under the sun and keeps any closed environment insulated from heat and cold, an indispensable feature for any roof tent.
Thanks to fiberglass, Autohome’s shells guarantee excellent quality not only in regard to their endurance and sound proof insulation, but also in terms of lightness and easiness to repair (avoiding this way the high costs of substitution of entire shells) This is one of the secrets that give Autohome roof tents superior quality and reliability.
Wherever. Whenever. The quality of fiberglass is so great that this material is also used in the manufacturing of boats and cars, especially for bodyworks and hulls that need rigidity and stability throughout time… the best campers, for example, are the ones with single body made with fiberglass and therefore easily repairable (bodies made with ABS are indeed not very diffused anymore because of their difficult reparation processes).
Thanks to its excellent qualities of lightness, robustness and resistance to decompression, fiberglass is also used for windmill blades and within the aeronautical and aerospace industry.
Autohome’s shells are designed and manufactured with the best existent material today.
No presumption of travelling to the moon (for the time being…).

BEDROOMS MADE TO LAST
All particulars, from the design concept, materials and components, to the safety features and insulation, have been methodically chosen and thoroughly tested in order to obtain an all-weather proof product that can be depended upon at all times. Just like the structure of a boat, we have used fibreglass to prevent it from aging, discolouring or losing its shape. Its remarkable capacity to withstand knocks and bumps can ensure durability but should the worst happen Maggiolina is easily repaired.

ROOF INSULATION

Roof insulation with air gap is an exclusive Autohome feature.
The air cushion obtained by the internal alveolar panel and the anti-condensation foam allow a better thermal and acoustic insulation and a healthier and more silent place to rest in case of rain.
The “sandwich” construction base has 25mm insulation thickness, while the two “C” shaped built in guides allow easy installation of roof tent with any kind of roof cross bars (normally without any additional fixings) offering a steady and safe structure in order to withstand any off-road stresses.

OUTSIDE YOU CAN’T SEE INSIDE, INSIDE YOU CAN SEE OUTSIDE
Dim. 0,5 x 0,7 mm [13,6×11/cm]
The mosquito net has an extraordinary blackout feature that provides more privacy to the occupants of the tent. Outside you can’t see inside, inside you can see outside.
The mosquito net is very thick.
It is incomparable to the standard and it features an innovative weave so fine that it does not allow the passage of any kind of insects. Quiet nights in marshy areas, near watercourses, on the banks of rivers or in areas where the presence of microscopic mosquitoes is very high.

MAGGIOLINA GRAND TOUR TECHNICAL DESINGS







V= with the tent closed, this indicates the capacity (volume) of the upper shell, in litres.
The upper shell contains 2 or 3 pillows, according to the model, and other night-time accessories or personal effects.
For example, a rucksack, blankets, a beauty-case, or the ladder, the changing room, winter hood or other travel accessories can be fitted inside the tent, so they don’t take up room in the boot or inside the vehicle.
When choosing a roof tent, the shell height is important because it shows how much room there is inside and how easy it is to move about, hence the comfort.
Even just a few centimetres more or less make a big difference: everything has been calculated to ensure that a person of average height (170-190 cm) can sit comfortably without the head coming close to the ceiling.
The overall length of 210 cm provides optimum comfort and room for rucksacks or large blankets.
Note: the dimensions indicated refer to the size of the shells.
Consider that, the shells being made with handcraft techniques in different moulds and configurations (Maggiolina / Columbus / Airtop), their length and width can vary +/- 30 mm.
The width (SMALL /MEDIUM) is according to the number of occupants
The width of the door L= 75 cm is designed for easy access even if you are not as slim and nimble as you used to be (most doors at home are about 75 cm wide).
The doors have arch-shaped zips for partial opening, providing privacy and improved air circulation inside the tent. When required, the areas above the doors become anti-condensation air sockets.
The windows are big enough to give an excellent view and small enough not to compromise privacy.
Standard bases include 2 strong C-shaped steel bars to hook the tent onto the vehicle roof rails, using the clamps supplied.
