Smaller Thule Roof Cargo Box that Fits 2022 Hyundai Kona with OEM Crossbars  

Updated 12/22/2025 | Published 10/16/2024

Question:

I HAVE A 2022 HYUNDAI KONA LIMITED WITH FACTORY INSTALLED CROSS BARS. TRYING TO DETERMINE IF THE THULE SIDEKICK OR THE THULE M WOULD BE BETTER. WHICH WOULD BE RECOMMENDED AND WILL IT FIT THE FACTORY INSTALLED BARS? I AM LOOKING FOR ONE ON THE SMALLER SIDE AND THAT LOOKS LIKE IT MAY BE THE SIDEKICK.

Hey Jeffrey, for your 2022 Hyundai Kona with OEM crossbars I would recommend the Thule Force XT cargo box part # TH6356B for a somewhat smaller size. This does fit your OEM crossbars and has a lot nicer mounting hardware than the Sidekick part # TH78GC. This box does fit too but I don't love the U-bolt style mounting hardware which is just a little more tedious to install and remove.

Hey Jeffrey, how did the Thule Force XT cargo box work out on your Kona’s factory crossbars? It’d be great to hear if the fit and mounting hardware met your expectations. Your update could make it easier for others choosing between these boxes.
