The 140S is very well suited:
Yes, for 2 adults + 1 small child, the 140S works very well if the goal is to keep a compact, mobile and easy-to-manage setup.
However, if you are looking for more living comfort around the tent, more family space or a more protective setup in everyday use, the 140L, 160L or 190L will often be more suitable.
The real advantage of the 140S is its lighter, simpler and faster approach: easily changing location every day on a road trip.
At 53 kg, it is lighter than the 140L (58 kg). It also folds up faster, as there is less fabric to store. This is a real plus for those who move often or want a more direct setup.
In summary:
Yes. With its 3.8 m², the 140S annex offers a truly versatile volume in everyday use.

The 140S remains an excellent choice if you want a soft, lightweight and more affordable rooftop tent. At 53 kg, it is much easier to mount on many cars than a heavy hardshell.
In comparison, the Taiga Pro (90 kg) and Taiga Z (95 kg) offer a real step up in user comfort: ultra-simple opening and closing, fewer operations, less wind noise while camping, and a real terrace to enjoy indoors and outdoors. On the other hand, they are also more expensive and much heavier.
No. The right choice depends above all on your way of travelling.
The choice therefore depends not only on price, but also on your travel rhythm, the desired comfort level and vehicle compatibility.

The Swisskings brand fabric is tested and certified by SGS, offering an exceptional balance between breathability, comfort, strength and durability when facing harsh outdoor conditions.
Technical fabric specifications:
- Material: The fabric used is a technical textile S320 made from synthetic fibers, featuring a ripstop reinforcement structure (10-point plaid) and a functional coating.
- Waterproof rating: 10,000 mm water column, ensuring complete protection against rain.
- Exceptional breathability: 1,164.2 g/m²/h, allowing internal moisture to escape and preventing condensation.
- Water Repellency Spray Test: Score of 95/100 (AATCC TM22-2017), guaranteeing excellent water repellency.
- UV resistance: Rated 4.5/5, providing effective protection against prolonged sun exposure.
- Free from harmful substances: Compliant with environmental regulations and guaranteed phthalate-free.
A value of 10,000 mm means that:
👉 In practical terms:
The Water Repellency Spray Test measures a fabric’s ability to repel water. With a score of 95/100, the Swisskings fabric effectively repels water and ensures a dry interior, even during heavy rainfall.
For a rooftop tent, the Spray Test verifies that:
This high value indicates the fabric’s ability to evacuate internal moisture. The Swisskings fabric can transmit approximately 1.164 kg of water vapor per m² per hour, and nearly 28,000 g/m²/24 h.
Unlike many rooftop tents on the market, Swisskings fabric has been independently tested by SGS according to the JIS L 1099:2021 (Method B1) standard.
This level of performance places Swisskings fabric among the very high-end outdoor materials, comparable to certain benchmark membranes, while retaining all the essential qualities required for a rooftop tent:
Some phthalates are classified as CMR substances (carcinogenic, mutagenic or reprotoxic) or as endocrine disruptors. As they are not permanently bound to plastics, they may gradually migrate into the air, dust or through direct contact.
Swisskings has developed a PVC-free technical fabric, compliant with current European regulations (REACH) and free from phthalates classified as SVHC.
The materials used for Swisskings rooftop tents have been tested using gas chromatography (GC), a reference analytical method allowing precise identification and quantification of regulated substances.
Test results show a level of 50 mg/kg, while the limit set by the European Union is 1,000 mg/kg, meaning a value 20 times below the authorized threshold.
This compliance ensures safe use, including during prolonged use in confined environments such as a rooftop tent, and within a family setting.
Swisskings prioritizes materials that meet European standards to ensure an optimal balance between performance, durability and user safety.
The base is designed with a sandwich panel featuring an aluminum honeycomb core, ensuring:
The Series 140S Tent is equipped with a TPU protective cover, an innovative material offering increased weather resistance.
⚠️ Note: The anti-condensation under-mattress, thermal insulation, and annex are sold separately.
