Thule Motion – pushing the limits of space

Need more space? The brand new Thule Motion cargo box creates a new reference for spacious cargo box solutions on the market. This roof-mounted cargo box will be the most suitable of all the Thule boxes for the consumer who wants to transport a lot of, large or just bulky luggage. Thule Motion is designed to optimize space efficiency and easy handling, underlined with Thule innovations such as Power-Click and Dual-Side.

Thule has been a pioneer in cargo box design for more than four decades. Just in time for the 2011-12 winter season, a new line of spacious cargo boxes hits the market: Thule Motion – building on Thule’s extensive knowledge of all the important aspects in this market segment: loading capacity, energy efficiency, safety and style. 

– The Thule Motion line of cargo boxes succeeds our very popular Thule Atlantis. This time, we have created more space than ever, aiming at a target group that travels fully equipped rather than light. Perfect for the extra pair of skis, or if you need to bring the stroller on your vacation, says Michael Mitschke, International Product Manager Cargo. Also adding features like the Thule Power-Click functionality, makes it both easier and safer to mount the box to the roof rack, and making it possible to load the box from both sides means tht we have upgraded the box without losing the main  unctionality – large volumes and easy transportation, concludes Michael Mitschke.

Available in two different colours – black glossy and silver glossy – and four different sizes from 350 to 650 litres, Thule Motion will fit any type of car and all specific needs. As a limited launch promotion, Thule Motion 800 will also be available with a white glossy lid.
