Tesla Model S is a pioneering electric car that combines luxury, performance and innovation. Despite its generous boot space, extra storage space may sometimes be needed for longer journeys or special activities. A roof box is the perfect solution to expand your Tesla Model S storage capacity without compromising on style or aerodynamics. In this guide, we review the best roof boxes and accessories for Tesla Model S and provide some useful tips for choosing the right solution for your needs.

Why a roof box?

Extra Space: Whether you're planning a ski trip, a summer family holiday or need to transport sports equipment, a roof box provides the extra space you need without affecting the car's interior.

Protection: Roof boxes protect your luggage from the elements, which is especially important when transporting fragile or valuable items.

Organisation: A roof box helps keep your car organised by storing larger and bulky items on the roof, leaving more space inside the car for passengers and other luggage.

Important Factors to Consider

Size and Capacity:

To find the perfect roof box, it's important to think about what you plan to transport. Larger roof boxes like the Calix Roof Box Nordic Loader Premium or Thule Roof Box Motion XT XXL are ideal for long journeys with lots of luggage.

Assembly and Compatibility:

Make sure the roof box is compatible with your roof rack. Roof racks such as the Vacuum Roof Rack or the Rail Fixation Kit from our webshop are excellent choices that fit perfectly with many of our roof box models.

Aerodynamics and Design:

The design of the roof box affects the aerodynamics of the car and thus its energy consumption. Roof boxes like the Thule Vector Alpine roof box are designed to minimise drag and maintain the car's stylish appearance.

Ease of access:

A roof box that is easy to install and access is essential for convenience. Models like the Calix Roof Box Aero Loader are easy to install and have user-friendly features.
