Roof Rack for 2019 Toyota RAV4 Hybrid With Naked Roof
Question:
Hi, We are purchasing a Toyota RAV4 LE Hybrid in Canada but we will be in Florida for 6 months and would like to carry our kayaks. Our Toyota dealer says the Hybrid 2019 RAV4 does not a roof rack option for it. Will one of your brands work wit the Hybrid and can you tell us what we would need to order and price. Thank you!

I checked with the roof rack manufacturers and there is just one option for your 2019 Toyota RAV4 Hybrid that has a naked roof, but it is a very good one, the SeaSucker Monkey Bars Roof Rack # 298-SX6000B (all prices can be found on the respective product pages).
The SeaSucker roof rack is outstanding because not only is it very easy to take on and off your RAV4 with its vacuum cups, but it has a hefty 150 lb weight capacity to easily carry your kayaks. To install it on your RAV4, just press down on the pump and it will stick; the rack isn't going to move as it has a 210 lb pull strength per vacuum cup - and there are 6 cups per rack, which should tell you how strong the rack is. I have added links to a number of video reviews I highly recommend checking out, including one of a road test that shows the stability of the SeaSucker
To carry kayaks with the SeaSucker Monkey Bars Roof Rack # 298-SX6000B you could then use the Pads for SeaSucker Monkey Bars # 298-SA1022 and Cam Buckle Tie-Down Straps for SeaSucker Monkey Bars # 298-SA0010 to carry your kayaks.
