Recommended Roof Rack and Cargo Box for 2016 Honda HR-V with Naked Roof
Question:
Hi, I’m looking into purchasing roof rails and the roof box for my 2016 HRV. I’m looking for the biggest cu ft space I can get or fit on the roof. My HRV roof has no rails or bars, it’s just a flat roof. I basically need every part I can get to have this completed but I don’t know where to start. Any recommendations on rails and roof box would be greatly appreciated! Thank you

Starting with the roof rack, I highly recommend the following setup:
- Thule SquareBar Evo Crossbars - Steel - 53" # TH712400
- Evo Clamp Feet # TH710501
- Fit Kit for Evo Clamp Feet # TH145175
- Thule One-Key Lock Cores # TH450400
This system is confirmed to fit your 2016 Honda HR-V that features a naked roof and it uses a clamp-style attachment to secure to the vehicle. What I really like about this particular roof rack is its through design where the crossbars extend past the feet. This allows for more crossbar space on your HR-V. The 1-1/4" wide x 7/8" tall square bars are compatible with most clamp-on accessories. It has a weight capacity of 165 pounds.
I have attached a video of these crossbars for your convenience.
Then for the roof box I recommend taking a look at the Thule Force XT Rooftop Cargo Box # TH6357B. This low-profile box offers 16 cubic feet of storage space, features pre-installed Quick-Grip mounts that will easily attach to the above-mentioned crossbars, and a dual-side-opening lid that lets you open the box from either side of your HR-V. With the Force XT, you will be able to fully open your trunk with the cargo box attached.
