Recommended Roof Rack for a 2023 Volvo XC90 w/ Side Rails

Question:

I have a new 2023 Volvo XC90. It has flush mounted rails on the sides of the room that came from the factory. I would like to add a set of crossbars to mount my bike rack but they need to be quiet. Is there a set that will work for my Volvo and not be loud or whistle?

Yes, there is a set of crossbars that will fit the flush side rails on your 2023 Volvo XC90. These mount directly to the side rails and have more than enough capacity for a bike rack. They are also aero bars so they will provide the quietest option for a roof rack. You will want the roof rack by Rhino Rack and it includes the following parts:

Rhino-Rack Vortex Aero Crossbars - Aluminum - Black - 54" Long - Qty 2 item # RRVA137B-2

Rhino-Rack SRB Legs for Vortex Aero Crossbars - Flush Factory Side Rails - Qty 4 item # RRSX046

This aero bar roof rack system has a 176 lbs capacity. The included locks will prevent theft. The rubberized vortex strips in the top channels dramatically reduce drag and wind noise.

I have linked a picture, along with a video, that will show you what this system will look like when installed on your Volvo.
