Thule Arcos XL is the newest addition to the Thule Arcos family of tow-mounted cargo boxes. A rear-of-car cargo box that is both beneficial for aerodynamics, and that makes it easy to transport gear on the back of the car all year round. This new extension to the Thule Arcos line can easily fit five to seven pairs of skis or up to four snowboards – up to 50 kg of cargo – making it the perfect solution for winter sport adventures.
A family of rear-mounted cargo boxes
Thule Arcos is a family of hard-shell cargo boxes designed to provide extra storage space at the rear of the car. The low positioning of the cargo box allows for easy loading and unloading of cargo, without obstructing the visibility through the rear-view mirror. Additionally, the trunk remains accessible at all times, making it simple to stow or retrieve items without removing the cargo box.
Spacious rear-of-car cargo box
With a capacity of 450 liters, Thule Arcos XL can fit up to seven sets of 180 cm skis or four snowboards, making it perfect for alpine adventures. It offers the same easy-to-use features and premium design as the rest of the Thule Arcos range – with the added capacity. It is the ideal choice for any adventure that needs extra cargo space. All year long.
“Thule Arcos XL offers all the popular features of the other Thule Arcos models, but with even more space, giving you the freedom to bring every piece of gear you need for an unforgettable adventure. It is great for carrying my full snowboard quiver in the winter and is a staple on my car all year round. No matter if you’re on your way to a snowy mountain or planning a family getaway, Thule Arcos XL is the perfect companion – carrying everything for your trip” - says Zachary Dugas, International Category Manager, Cargo Carriers.
Aerodynamics that makes driving more efficient
Thanks to the low position at the rear and aerodynamic design, Thule Arcos XL reduces drag, helping to lower energy/fuel consumption and preserving the driving range of all types of cars. With an easy mounting solution to the towbar, the whole packing experience is both smoother and more ergonomic – especially on taller vehicles, such as SUVs or off-road cars.
With the hard-shell textured exterior, Thule Arcos XL is both weather-resistant and protected from any road debris. The cargo is also kept safe and secure while parked by the easy-to-use SlideLock locking system.
