Is it necessary to install a roof rack on an SUV?
1 Answers
Consider installing an SUV roof rack only if there is a genuine need. The primary function of a roof rack is to carry cargo. Regulations clearly state that for small and micro passenger vehicles, cargo can only be loaded on the roof rack outside of the trunk, provided the height from the roof does not exceed 50mm and the total height from the ground does not exceed 4 meters. Additional information: 1. Roof rack installation: Standard family vehicles such as MPVs, SUVs, ORVs, and sedans typically do not exceed the 4-meter height limit. The 50mm vertical space from the roof, even for sedans, often offers more storage capacity than the trunk, making roof racks highly practical when utilized effectively. 2. Precautions: The only prohibited use for roof racks is mounting bicycle racks. Bicycles fixed in a standing position will inevitably exceed the 50cm height limit, which may result in penalties.
