Hyundai Tucson is a popular family SUV where a roof rack often solves the transport of skis, bicycles or luggage for a vacation. To ensure the crossbars fit perfectly, start by choosing your car's generation.
When choosing a rack, the year of manufacture stated in the vehicle registration document is crucial. The first generation Tucson JM (2004 – 2010) uses raised rails, which stand above the roof with space underneath to slide your hand through.
Newer models switched to a different solution. The Tucson TL (2015 – 2020) generation and the newer Tucson NX4 (od roku 2020) have flush rails. These lie directly on the roof along their entire length without a gap. Each generation requires feet precisely shaped according to the profile of its rails.
In the offer you will find both steel and aluminum profiles. Steel bars with a square shape represent a simple solution for occasional material transport. Aluminum profiles usually have an aerodynamic cross-section and a slot for attaching accessories using T-bolts.
You then mount the chosen roof box, bicycle or ski carrier either with classic U-bolts around the bar, or by sliding it into the top slot of the crossbar. Before purchasing, we recommend checking the package contents and the mounting method directly in the specific product detail.
Tucson is a relatively high car, so when loading bicycles, it helps to open the rear door and step on the sill. With a roof box, expect an increase in the total height of the car, which needs to be kept in mind before entering underground garages, parking structures or under low shelters.
If you park another car of this brand at home, check out the categories for i30, ix35, Santa Fe models or the full range of Hyundai roof racks.
