Expert Reply:
When determining which cargo box will fit the roof of your 2020 Honda CR-V, it really comes down to the hatch clearance. You will want to measure from the center of your front crossbar all the way to the line where the hatch and trunk meet. If your measurement is 55" or more then you can go with the extra large Thule Motion XT Rooftop Cargo Box - 22 cu ft - Titan Glossy # TH629907. If your measurement is 57" or more then you can install the extra large Yakima SkyBox 21 Rooftop Cargo Box - 21 cu ft - Black Carbonite # Y07337. In case you don't have this much hatch clearance, I attached a link to the available roof boxes that you can look at. You can narrow your search by clicking on 'large capacity' or 'medium capacity' and then click on a roof box and scroll down to where it shows the rear hatch clearance information.
