Thule force xt m roof box review.

Even the finish on the outer shell is fantastic. The image is a 2015 dodge durango with factory cargo rack and force xt xl thule box. The motion xt was hands down the nicest box in our review. The thule force xt roof box includes a clever opening system called the lockknob and the thule comfort key can be used on either side of the box.

The motion xt is designed to be a more stylish roof box. Since we opted for the xl version of the force xt we experienced the luxury of maximum cargo space. So rather than the traditional bulbous shape it has a sleeker profile which thule says has been optimised for aerodynamics. Hope this helps those thinking about purchasing a cargo box.

Plus the 300 litre of space is very useable despite the powerclick adjusters intruding somewhat. All in all the design of this cargo carrier is really nice. It s sturdy well built and secure. It s sturdy and gave us plenty of space for our trip to florida.

The convenient dual side access allows you to open the box from both the driver and passenger side which is a big bonus as it is not always practical to use one side of your car. We did though lose about 1 1 5 mpg in gas. It comes in black as tested here or alternatively there s a similarly glossy silver. I avg about 78 mph and heard very little noise.

The combination of sturdy construction thoughtful locking mechanisms incredibly mounting clamps and an ergonomic handle make for an obvious editors choice award winner. It has a sturdy construction sleek matte black finish and simple mounting system but lost some points for not having a handle and being slightly finicky to lock.
