Compare our awnings

We offer a carefully curated range of Tent & Trail vehicle awnings to suit every kind of explorer, from solo adventurers needing a quick-pitch side awning to families creating a basecamp for the long haul. Looking for a compact, lightweight roll-out awning for weekend getaways or a rugged, full-coverage 270 awning for extended overland trips, we’ve got you covered.

On this page, we break down the key differences between our car awnings, helping you compare the benefits of a standard side-mount setup versus the expansive protection of a wrap-around awning. We’ll guide you through the essential details, including coverage area, heavy-duty materials, and mounting requirements, to ensure you choose the perfect side awning or 270-degree awning setup for your vehicle and travel style.

Find the right awning for your travels

Choosing the right vehicle awning depends on your specific car or van, how you travel, and the level of shelter you need for your adventures. With several different options in our range, from compact side awnings to expansive wrap-around awnings, it can be tricky to know which awning is the perfect fit.

That’s why we’ve put together the comparison table below, allowing you to easily see how our car awnings stack up in terms of coverage area, weight, mounting length, and features. Whether you are leaning towards a lightweight side awning for quick stops or a heavy-duty 270 awning for total basecamp protection, you can compare them side-by-side here.

Still unsure which vehicle awning is right for your rack? No problem, just drop us a message or give us a call, and we’ll help you choose the setup that fits your vehicle and style of adventure perfectly.
