What Roof Rack Do You Recommend For My 2022 Volvo XC40 To Carry A Thule Hullavator And Kayak
Question:
I am getting a new car soon, and want to use it with a Hullavator. What would be the quietest set up that youd recommend for me? I will also need cross bars, so either Yakima or Thule bars so long as they work with the Hullavator are options.

Expert Reply:
My roof rack recommendation for you will consist of a Yakima roof rack and the Thule Hullavator Pro Kayak Carrier and Lift Assist with Tie-Downs - Side Loading, part # TH898. The Hullavator will not work unless there is between 4" and 8" of crossbar extension beyond the towers/feet. Yakima roof racks are easier to setup with that extension. Your Yakima roof rack will consist of the following items:
Thule WingBar Evo Crossbars - Aluminum - Black - 53" Long - Qty 2, part # TH711420
Evo Flush Rail Feet for Thule Crossbars - Flush Side Rails - Qty 4, part # TH710601
Fit Kit for Thule Evo Flush Roof Rack Feet - 186010, part # TH186010
Thule One-Key System Lock Cylinders - Qty 4, part # TH450400
This roof rack has a weight limit of 165 lbs. The Yakima CoreBar Crossbars are elliptical in shape, so they will help reduce wind noise AND aid in fuel efficiency. I have included the Yakima Same Key System Lock Cores so you can secure your roof rack to your vehicle. Once this is in place, you can install the Thule Hullavator.
I have included product description links and video review links below.
