For your 2022 Hyundai Tucson Hybrid with a panoramic roof and flush-mounted rails, a great cargo carrier is the Thule Force XT - 16. cu. ft. # TH6357B. The Force XT comes with a dual-opening lid that can be accessed from either side for loading/unloading convenience. Also, the Quick Grip mounting clamps are super easy to use and allow you to attach the box to your crossbars in about 5 minutes. It already comes with locks, so you do not need to worry about purchasing additional components for theft-deterrence. As far as crossbar compatibility, the Force XT fits crossbars up to 3-1/2" wide x 1-11/16" tall.
If you need a crossbar system on your vehicle, I recommend the following:
- Thule WingBar Evo Crossbars # TH711320 (black) or # TH711300 (silver)
- Evo Flush Rail Feet # TH710601
- Thule Fit Kit # TH28JQ
- Thule Same-Key Lock Cores # TH450400
The great advantage of the WingBar Evo Crossbars over the alternative SquareBar Evo Crossbars # TH712300 is that they come with an extremely aerodynamic design that ultimately leads to a quieter ride and increased fuel efficiency. Since the WingBars measure 3-1/8" wide x 1" tall, they are compatible with most clamp-on accessories like the Force XT. Additionally, the bars come with a full-length channel to accommodate channel-mounted accessories as well. I went ahead and attached a video that shows a similar setup of these crossbars on a 2018 Hyundai Tucson to provide you with perspective.
With this particular setup, you receive a maximum weight capacity of 165 pounds. As with all roof racks, we always recommend consulting with your vehicle's owner's manual to make sure your roof can handle the weight you wish to transport.
