In order to use the Thule Hullavator Pro Kayak Carrier part # TH898 on a 2020 Toyota RAV4 you'll simply need a roof rack. This will be dependent on roof type. If you have flush side rails then I recommend the Thule WingBar Evo Crossbar System consisting of part # TH711220, part # TH460R, and part # THKIT3177 but if you have raised side rails I recommend the Thule WingBar Evo Crossbar System consisting of part # TH711420, and part # TH710401. These systems both have the required crossbar overhang for the Hullavator to work.
