Superior Design and Safety
Each roof rack is engineered to guarantee a secure hold and offer easy loading and unloading with a minimal impact on vehicle performance. The WindDiffer feature redistributes airflow to go over your roof rack, which reduces the noise you occasionally hear with a “naked” front bar. This feature also reduces the amount of drag on your vehicle, which means improved fuel economy.
Thule also incorporates its sustainability values in how it designs its roof racks. Their racks utilize recycled materials and other sustainably sourced materials. They include corrosive-resistant materials, which is ideal given Alberta’s unpredictable climate and weather conditions.
What Thule Roof Rack Will Fit My Car?
Thule roof racks are easy to install on all types of vehicles and include all the necessary components. One advantage of choosing a Thule roof rack is they work closely with the automotive industry to ensure that new roof rack kits are released as more recent models of vehicles are released.
The majority of roof rack systems are made up of roof bars, feet, and fit kits (bear in mind not all vehicles will need fit kits). The bars bear the brunt of the load, while the feet can attach to certain kinds of vehicle roofs. The fit kit ensures that the rack fits on your model.
