IXTAbox is designed in Sweden with outdoor enthusiasts in mind, offering easy access for families who enjoy sports like skiing, kayaking, or cycling. Its aerodynamic and silent design makes it a superior option to rooftop boxes, allowing you to travel longer distances while consuming less fuel. Simply mount it onto your car’s towing hook, and you’re ready to go. Learn more about how the IXTAbox compares to a traditional roofbox on our comparison page.

 IXTAbox is a premium product built to last, using saltwater-resistant aluminium and acid-resistant stainless steel for durability. Unlike plastic or fibreglass options, the IXTAbox offers superior strength and a quieter, more fuel-efficient ride. The patented design ensures it's stable and reduces wind drag compared to roof-mounted boxes.

The IXTAbox is comparable to rooftop boxes in weight but offers a sturdier design using higher-quality materials. Some models may even be lighter, depending on size, while maintaining the durability and longevity IXTAbox is known for.

The IXTAbox uses a patented towing hook fixture with two half-domed metal pieces that securely enclose the hook, preventing tilting during normal driving conditions.

While both the IXTAbox and your towbar can handle more than their maximum weight capacity, we recommend distributing the weight evenly to maintain good steering control. Placing heavier items closer to the car’s centre ensures better handling.

If your car has parking sensors or a reverse camera, the IXTAbox will trigger these systems. Use your mirrors and back camera to ensure safe reversing. For Tesla owners, the rear camera can stay on while driving, providing additional visibility.

Depends on your needs! What do you want to carry in IXTAbox? We offer a variety of sizes. Currently we offer models at 175cm and 190cm and at a height of 42cm. For other sizes or recommendations reach out to us directly for advice.

If you need a size outside the standard options, we can provide custom IXTAbox models. Simply contact us to discuss your requirements.

In most European countries, it’s legal to attach trailers up to 2.4m wide to your car. However, if your IXTAbox is wider than your car, you should add white lights and reflexes at the edges facing the car for visibility.

Using a wider box than your car adds extra wind drag resistance, which reduces driving range. Moreover, as a driver, you must be more vigilant towards your surroundings.

In most cases, yes. However, it depends on your car’s model and the height of the IXTAbox you choose. You can check our Box Guide or contact us for specific advice regarding your vehicle.

Yes! IXTAbox is designed to accommodate skis, especially the 190cm model, which fits most ski sizes. Larger skis can also be placed diagonally for a perfect fit or attached to the lid of the box.

To clean your IXTAbox, simply hose it down with water. For stubborn dirt, use mild household detergent. Avoid strong acidic products that can damage the finish.

IXTAbox is designed for durability, so scratches are normal and reflect your adventures. If you want higher scratch resistance, consider our structured finish models, which are tougher and more resilient.

Constructed with saltwater-resistant aluminium and acid-resistant stainless steel, IXTAbox can withstand road salt and harsh weather conditions. Over time, aluminium may develop a natural white patina (aluminium oxide) that helps protect it. Regular cleaning with fresh water will maintain its appearance.

While not completely watertight, IXTAbox is equipped with rubber seals that minimize water and dust entry. It’s designed for frequent use, but under snowy conditions, some snow may enter due to wind turbulence.

Each IXTAbox model has a maximum weight capacity, which is clearly stated in the specifications. Ensure that you distribute the load evenly to avoid overloading and maintain driving performance.

 Yes! The IXTAbox is versatile enough for a range of outdoor equipment like bikes, tools, and camping gear. If you need additional advice on what fits, feel free to contact us.

Installation is quick and easy. It typically takes less than 5 minutes to mount your IXTAbox onto your car’s towing hook, with no complicated tools required.

It’s safe to leave the IXTAbox mounted for extended periods. Always ensure it’s securely mounted before driving.
