James Baroud

Grand Raid

Available sizes

Built on the same concept as the Evasion with its horizontal opening and its 360º panoramic view, the James Baroud Grand Raid roof top tent is differentiated by its luggage carrier which can easily carry a load of 25kg. The most spacious tent in the range in the XL version, the James Baroud Grand Raid features speed of installation, optimal comfort, full 360º panoramic view, a solar powered ventilation system for extreme climates, a storage tray with tie down points on top and enough room to sleep even three adults.

The tent opens in less than 1 minute, through four hydraulic cylinders, mounted on bearings, actuating the articulated arms, that are protected by a canvas cover. The tent can be closed by only one person and in the same time. An incorporated elastic band around the canvas assure its inclusion inside the tent during the closing. Access to the tent is easily gained by using the telescoping ladder that comes standard with all James Baroud roof top tents.

The top streamlined hard shell is designed with a rear aileron. The hard shell locking is ensured by two tailor-made locks.

Ventilation

With a capacity of 19.2m3/h, this fan prevents condensation and helps evacuating the heat stored, thereby avoiding humidity and fungi. The James Baroud Vent was conceived to circulate a volume seven times the size of our bigger tent.
