Question:

Hi, I have a 2023 Hyundai Tucson Hybrid vehicle with a panoramic sunroof and I want to carry a Roofnest Sparrow Eye. However, Im confused by a couple of things. 1. I put in my vehicle and there are a lot of choices and I dont know which one I need. Could you help me narrow down the choices? Could you just tell me which ones will work for the Roofnest Sparrow on my car? The Sparrow weighs 135 pounds, but Id like the crossbars to hold a little more than that. 2. There was nowhere that it asked me to specify that I have a hybrid, but some of the choices say the bars work for gasoline and hybrid models. Is there a difference? Some of the choices say nothing. Should I only choose one that says its OK for hybrid? Thank you for your help!

I would be happy to help clear up the confusion. The hybrid part doesn't really matter what's important is the panoramic sunroof part and you having the flush mount rails that run along the sides of the roof. To add a roof rack to your 2023 Hyundai Tucson you will need the following parts:

Thule WingBar Evo Crossbars - Aluminum - 50" Long - Qty 2 item # TH711320 for Black or item # TH711300 for Silver

Evo Flush Rail Feet for Thule Crossbars - Flush Side Rails - Qty 4 item # TH710601

Fit Kit for Thule Evo Flush Rail and Edge Flush Rail Roof Rack Feet - 6112 item # TH28JQ

This aero bar roof rack has a 165 lbs capacity and will work great with your Roofnest Sparrow tent. I have linked an installation video below we did on a 2018 Tucson so you can see how this system sets up.
