Recommended Roof Rack System For A 2020 Ford Escape With A Panoramic Roof
Question:
Will this work on my 2020 Ford Escape with the panoramic roof? and no rack to attach to on the roof? Will it scratch the paint/glass?

Expert Reply:
Since you don't have any mounting points you'll have to use a clamp-on style roof rack system. The bases for these style roof racks come with rubber pads to prevent any scratching. For your 2020 Ford Escape I recommend going with a Rhino Rack system which will require the following components:
Rhino-Rack Vortex Aero Crossbars # RRVA137B-2
Rhino-Rack 2500 Series Legs for Vortex Aero Crossbars # RRRLKVA
Custom DK Fit Kit for 4 Rhino-Rack 2500 Series Roof Rack Legs # RR84TB
Since you don't have raised rails you may run into some clearance issues with the panoramic roof. You'll want to measure how high it sits and dry fit one of the crossbars to see if it will interfere with you opening the roof prior to fully installing the rack.
