What Crossbar System do You Recommend for My 2022 Kia Seltos with Flush Rails?
Question:
Can you confirm whether the Malone Airflow2 will work with the 2022 Kia Seltos? Your website lists this as a confirmed fit, though there seems to be conflicting information in the description. The Seltos has flush factory side rails, not raised, as it seems this setup is designed for. Can you please clarify which information is correct?

I have a great solution for you. You are absolutely justified to have a concern about the fitment of the Malone AirFlow2 # MPG215 on a 2022 Kia Seltos with flush factory rails. I confirmed with Malone that they do not currently do not have an engineered fitment of any Malone system (including the AirFlow 2) on a 2022 model Kia Seltos.
With that being said, I confirmed with Thule that this crossbar setup will be a great fit for your 2022 Kia Seltos with flush rails:
- Thule SquareBar Evo Crossbars - Steel - 47" Long # TH712200
- Rapid Podium Feet for Thule Crossbars - Fixed Point - Qty 4 # TH460R
- Fit Kit for Thule Podium-Style Roof Rack Feet - 3181 # TH25JV
With this crossbar system, you will be able to accommodate up to 220 pounds. However, it is important to confirm with your vehicle's owner's manual to make sure you can handle that much weight.
