Rivian has teamed up with iKamper to introduce a new rooftop tent designed specifically for the R1T electric truck. Dubbed the Skycamp Mini, this $4,595 pop-out tent offers a smarter way to camp without sacrificing storage or electric range. Unlike traditional rooftop tents, which mount directly to the roof and impact aerodynamics, this version attaches to the bed rack, improving efficiency on long trips.
A Smarter Tent Design for EV Owners
Most rooftop tents add significant wind resistance, hurting range, but the Skycamp Mini’s unique bed-rack mounting helps minimize drag. For Rivian owners planning long road trips or off-road adventures, that means fewer stops to charge and more time exploring.
Another advantage? More truck bed space. Unlike Tesla’s CyberTent, which extends from the back of the Cybertruck and eats into storage, the Skycamp Mini allows you to keep essential gear in the bed—like Rivian’s fold-and-stow cooktop, extra batteries, or adventure equipment.
Built for Comfort & Security
Rivian’s take on the Skycamp Mini isn’t just about efficiency—it also brings premium touches designed for serious campers. Here’s what sets it apart:
- Signature Rivian yellow color to match the truck’s aesthetic
- Locking crossbar brackets for added security
- Deluxe self-inflating mattress for better comfort than standard foam
- Easy-access ladder for climbing into the tent
These features make it a durable and stylish addition to Rivian’s lineup of adventure gear.
Pricing, Availability & Bonus Perks
The Skycamp Mini is available now through iKamper’s website for $4,595 with $199 shipping in the contiguous U.S. (or $800 for Alaska, Hawaii, and Puerto Rico). While it costs $350 more than the standard Skycamp Mini, it comes with an upgraded mattress.
As a limited-time promo, orders placed before April 15th will also include a free “Disco Series” stove, making this an even more appealing deal for outdoor enthusiasts.
Worth It for Adventurous Rivian Owners?
For those who love off-grid camping, the Skycamp Mini offers a perfect balance of convenience, comfort, and efficiency. While it’s a premium-priced upgrade, it could make every adventure a little more effortless—and a lot more fun.
