Born for the Wild.
Hand-built in Columbia, South Carolina, the Bengal offers unparalleled craftsmanship, secure handling, and off-road performance.
One of nature’s most beautiful animals, the tiger is a universal symbol of strength, agility, and power. These are the characteristics we embed in every Tiger Adventure Vehicle we build. With true off-road, 4×4 capabilities and a sturdy, self-contained living area, this isn’t your average RV. From the wheels up, Tigers are rugged enough to reach vistas off the beaten path, and comfortable enough to keep you there.
Originally developed in Colorado and now hand-built in South Carolina and Georgia, Tigers have journeyed worldwide, from the Arctic Circle to the tip of Patagonia, to the mountains of Mongolia and the sands of the Middle East. Offering exceptional versatility and quality, Tiger Adventure Vehicles make a statement wherever they roam. Most importantly, they offer the freedom to explore and enjoy an unparalleled overland lifestyle.
The Bengal Tiger
Since 1991 the Bengal has remained the gold standard for adventure vehicles, offering the comfort and convenience of a walk-though RV with the off-road 4×4 performance required to carry the Tiger name.
All Bengals start on your choice of Ford, Chevrolet, or Ram one-ton 4×4 truck chassis, with the option of standard, extended/double, or crew cabs, and gasoline or diesel engines. From there, we build a lightweight but durable aluminum coach frame, surrounding it with wood, fiberglass, and insulation. The end result is a sturdy, all-season cabin fix-mounted directly to the truck chassis. With a convenient pass-through beneath the overhead bed, owners can move between the truck cab and Tiger coach easily without having to exit the vehicle, an especially useful feature in inclement weather.
Inside, the Bengal features a high roof-line (10-ft, 6-inches) and interior ceiling height (6-feet, 5-inches) to accommodate taller owners. It has an open, living-room style floor plan with a full-size overhead bed and a fold-out L-shaped couch made of automotive-grade vinyl. Every Tiger features a full galley kitchen with a composite countertop, solid maple wood cabinets, and durable vinyl flooring. The Bengal features an enclosed wet bath, with a full-size toilet, handheld shower head, and sink. All Bengals come standard with 100-watts of solar, 220-AH of maintenance-free AGM batteries, a 9,600-BTU air conditioner, and a 2800-watt generator.
