Recommended Crossbars for a 2023 Volvo XC90 w/ Raised Side Rails

Question

Question:

I have a 2023 Volvo XC90. It has the raised roof rails but no crossbars. I see quite a few options on your website for complicated roof racks. I do not want something that hangs over the side of the rails. Is there an option that just mounts inbetween the side rails or do I need to go through Volvo?

Yes, there is an option to add just a set of crossbars to your 2023 Volvo XC90 that don't extend past your raised roof rails. I recommend the Rhino-Rack Vortex StealthBar Roof Rack item # JA7971.

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

I have attached a picture below along with the instructions so you can see what these crossbars look like once set up.
