The motion xt is designed to be a more stylish roof box.
Thule force xt m roof box review.
All in all the design of this cargo carrier is really nice.
This system is easier to use with gloves on than previous locks thule has outfitted cargo carriers with.
Since we opted for the xl version of the force xt we experienced the luxury of maximum cargo space.
Hope this helps those thinking about purchasing a cargo box.
The combination of sturdy construction thoughtful locking mechanisms incredibly mounting clamps and an ergonomic handle make for an obvious editors choice award winner.
It comes in black as tested here or alternatively there s a similarly glossy silver.
The thule force xt sport is a good choice as an occasional roof box so for instance if you re likely to only need it a few times a year for holidays or trips away.
Plus the 300 litre of space is very useable despite the powerclick adjusters intruding somewhat.
It s exactly what you expect from thule.

The thule force xt roof box includes a clever opening system called the lockknob and the thule comfort key can be used on either side of the box.
Although it wasn t a leader in any of our rating metrics the thule force xt xl is a great cargo box that offers above average performance.
It s sturdy well built and secure.
We did though lose about 1 1 5 mpg in gas.
I avg about 78 mph and heard very little noise.
Even the finish on the outer shell is fantastic.
So rather than the traditional bulbous shape it has a sleeker profile which thule says has been optimised for aerodynamics.
It has a sturdy construction sleek matte black finish and simple mounting system but lost some points for not having a handle and being slightly finicky to lock.
