Best roof box for electric cars? 
Why a towbar mounted cargo box is the smarter choice: 

As electric vehicles (EVs) become more popular, EV owners face unique challenges when adding extra storage. Because electric cars rely heavily on battery efficiency, aerodynamics plays a critical role in maximizing driving range – making the choice of storage solution more important than ever. 

The problem with traditional roof boxes for EVs 

Roof boxes are mounted on the top of your car, creating significant wind resistance. This increased drag can raise energy consumption by up to 40%, reducing your EV’s range and making drives noisier and less comfortable.

At highway speeds, roof boxes often generate loud wind noise that detracts from the smooth, quiet ride EV drivers expect. 

Why aerodynamics matter for electric vehicles 

Every bit of extra drag means your electric motor has to work harder – draining precious battery power and cutting into your range. Unlike gasoline cars, EVs don’t benefit from refueling stops as quickly, so maintaining aerodynamic efficiency is key to longer, stress-free trips.
