Best Roof Rack for 2020 Kia Telluride With Naked Roof and How Does It Attach
Question:
I saw this question asked, but dont think it was completely answered. The initial question pertaining to a 2020 Kia Telluride was how to mount a roof rack, but WITHOUT the presence of factory roof rails. Yes there are crossbars and accessories, but what do the crossbars mount TO? Are there factory roof rails running down the length of the vehicle on both sides that can be attached to the body of the vehicle? Thanks for clarification.

Expert Reply:
There are two roof configurations for a 2020 Kia Telluride, bare roof and flush side rails. The roof rack system for a bare roof attaches to the door jambs via car clips whereas the system for flush side rails attaches to the flush side rails.
I recommend the Yakima JetStream Crossbar System part # Y00426, part # Y28TR, part # Y06125, and part # Y06165 if you have a bare roof.
The Yakima Crossbar system is best because it has a custom fit for the best overall look, aero crossbars for the best wind resistance, and channels for use with channel mounted accessories.
