Kamei Corvara S 390 rating

4.0

Best price: £459.95

The priciest and newest roof box on test is also from Kamei, and is a close rival to our winner. The Corvara S is said to have “the fastest roof box mounting system”, provided you have channelled roof bars, and the T-bar-style clips slot in and lock down in seconds. At 16kg, it’s lighter and more manageable than the 510, and its dual-sided access is convenient for both fitting and packing. It’s been suggested this glossy black box holds more than its quoted 390 litres, but for fairness, we’ve compared them on official figures.

This Halfords sub-brand is far from sub-standard.
Thule Ranger 90
If storage away from the car is a problem, Thule’s Ranger 90 soft bag is a reasonable solution.
Calix 430
At 23kg, the Calix 430 is fairly unwieldy; fitting is a two-person job.
Hapro Roady 4000
The cheapest and lightest solid box on test, Hapro’s Roady 4000 has Masterfit clips that slot into a channelled roof bar, once you have the additional rubber protectors in place.
Thule Motion 800
The 800 relates to size, rather than capacity, as this box holds only 460 litres
