D-LUXE Hard Shell Rooftop Tent
The D-LUXE is the side-opening model in the Lucas Creek premium hard-shell range, designed for campers who prioritise interior sleeping space and a wide, open layout.
Rather than entering from the rear of the vehicle, the D-LUXE opens out to the side, creating a roomy sleeping area that is particularly well suited to taller campers and customers who prefer a wider campsite setup alongside their 4WD or touring vehicle.
Designed, tested and refined in New Zealand, the D-LUXE combines its side-opening layout with integrated power, lighting, ventilation and a multi-layer mattress system for comfortable camping across changing seasons.
A Side-Opening Setup Built for Comfort
The D-LUXE's layout is what sets it apart from the rear-entry LUXE and LUXE-X models. Its side-opening design provides extra room for taller campers, while positioning the ladder alongside the vehicle rather than at the rear keeps it clear of the cooking and kitchen area.
Inside, the three-layer mattress combines high-density foam, memory foam and an anti-condensation layer. A three-speed ventilation fan, underfloor breathable vent system, skylight and heater duct provide several ways to manage temperature and airflow throughout the year.
Integrated 12V power and LED lighting make it easier to charge devices and organise the tent after dark, while internal storage pockets keep smaller items away from the sleeping area.
The aluminium shell includes a roof T-slot system for compatible racks, solar equipment and mounting accessories. Removable or roll-up side-window awnings allow greater visibility in fine weather and reduce unnecessary fabric movement when conditions become windy.
Optional zip-on accessories, including the ladder cover and annex, can add protected access and extra sheltered campsite space when required.
For campers comparing the Lucas Creek hard-shell range, choose the D-LUXE when a spacious side-opening layout is the priority; choose the LUXE-X for a larger rear-entry setup, or the LUXE when a narrower shell is important.

Let customers speak for us
I purchased a second chair for my hubby as I knew that if I didn't he would always be sitting in mine!! LOL! Fantastic quality camping chair that swivels 360 degrees. I know that we are going to get heaps of pleasure from these and the footstool. Very chuffed with them and the service from Coldstart was beyond excellent!
Excellent service - prompt delivery!
Products exactly as described. High quality products! You will be thrilled!
Arrived very promptly! And this combo is soooooo comfortable!! Love that I can swing around in this chair - 360 degrees! And the footstool also swings 360 degrees and could be used as seating for a third person. Love that the stool has a few height variations. Love that the two chairs I was sent don't have the net mesh back as I worried that this could sometimes be cold. Very impressed that when I emailed and said that there wasn't a bag strap included for the footstool bag that these folks sent me one immediately by courier post. So all up - a fantastic product and exceptional service from this company. Get one for yourself today - guaranteed you will be as chuffed with this combo as I am!!
Great service!
Having run this awning for a year now I have to say there is no going back to anything I have owned in the past. Up in less than 2 mins and packed away in the same. A well thought out design and not super tight in the cover that makes it hard to stow. Great product and awesome service from the coldstart crew who fitted it too.
Must-have for taking all the essentials up and doen from the RTT, will buy again!
Awesome fan with a decent powerbank capacity, especially love the low-draw feature where other powerbanks might turn off running the low-draw LEDs in an RTT, this one doesn't.
These bags are incredible quality. The big zips make them durable and sturdy, I love the feel of them. I don’t know how we ever went on trips without them for storage.
Nice stickers hopefully they hold up to weather
Good service
Well,
I didn’t mean for things to happen this way, but here we are. The fit is perfect, it’s comfortable, heavy like a weighted blanket and I’ve never felt so supported emotionally by an item of clothing.
Also took this camping, survived freezing mornings, late night campfires and questionable cooking decisions and it helped me endured listening to a mate telling the same story for the 37th times.
The 4x4 camping gear is awesome too but let’s be honest, I came for the gear and stayed for the jumper.
Purchased this for my partner and now I wish I’d bought one for myself too. Such a cool tee and the quality is awesome.
Love this stubby holder. The quality is awesome and it actually keeps drinks cold properly while out on the tracks or around camp. We’ve started collecting stubby holders from 4WD brands around NZ and Australia, so this one had to join the collection. The Black Badge design looks mint and fits the vibe perfectly. Definitely one of our favourites so far.
Really impressed with the service and overall quality. Everything arrived quickly, communication was easy, and the products feel genuinely well made. You can tell a lot of care goes into both the gear and the customer experience. Will definitely be ordering again.
Absolutely stoked with this bucket. We originally grabbed it for camping and off-grid trips, but it’s now permanently part of the Land Cruiser setup for our shower system. Super practical, tough, and way more versatile than we expected. Perfect size for holding water at camp (or rock collecting apparently) and easy to pack away when not in use. Has already become one of those bits of gear we use every trip without even thinking about it.
