The only difference between the AX2 and AX3 is size. The AX2 accommodates up to 2 adults, while the AX3 fits up to 3 adults.
Overview
The 23Zero Armadillo AX3 is a hardshell aluminum rooftop tent built for overlanders who want fast deployment, four-season protection, and true sleeping comfort in a refined, aerodynamic design.
At the core of the AX3 is an innovative gas-strut-assisted X-frame, allowing rapid setup and pack-down while delivering 18 inches of interior headroom. The side-opening design supports left or right-side configurations, making it adaptable to a wide range of vehicle setups without compromising airflow or aerodynamics.
Designed to sleep up to three adults, the AX3 offers a spacious sleeping platform that’s wider than a queen and nearly the size of a king. A 2-inch open-cell foam mattress paired with an anti-condensation mat provides reliable comfort in all seasons. Inside, ECO13B fabric with Light Suppression Technology (LST) keeps the interior cooler and darker, helping you sleep longer even after sunrise.
