MINI is ready to give you wonderful memories this summer. By offering its outdoor lovers a rooftop tent that can be strapped to the Cooper SE electric hatchback or Cooper SE Countryman ALL4 plug-in hybrid crossover. Happy camping nights MINI fans.

The rooftop tent is aimed to be installed on the roof rails available for both mentioned cars, but they can also be supplemented by a matching carrier system found in MINI’s catalog. It’s designed for easy deployment, in just a few seconds. But first, you have to release the safety from the housing until the structure lifts up on its own, helped at the same time by the gas springs.

If you noticed the foldout aluminum ladder would provide its owners access inside, where there are sleeping accommodations for two. The windows are protected by the special mosquito nets which are rollable in the hot summer days for better ventilation. The camping gear can be stored in your luggage compartment wherever you own a Cooper SE or a Countryman PHEV.

MINI also stated that this rooftop tent won’t affect the aerodynamic, and the vehicles will still be able to accelerate accordingly to the performance declared by the automaker. And camping gear is your perfect getaway if you ever travel and want to avoid the hostels and would like to enjoy the starry sky.
