Model 3 roof rack

Looks like Thule won’t have anything any time soon. Hopefully the other manufacturers are looking into.

Given M3 volumes and the likelihood that Tesla owners want to carry bikes etc. I am surprised a company as big as Thule hasn’t even started the process yet.

These work great on the model X and will be fantastic on a 3 as well. I have the ski rack but others have had good experiences with he bike racks too.

There is a longer thread on this: Model 3 Roof Rack Options

In short, we are waiting on manufacturers or Tesla to start making one.

Why not. Miss another winter. Kids are growing. Skis don't fit in the trunk anymore.

Hello Keng, and thank you for contacting Yakima support!

There will not be a rack for sale at retail stores for this vehicle. Tesla is working on a roof rack for the vehicle which will be sold through their stores, and we (Yakima) are assisting. Per Tesla, the rack is currently scheduled for release next Spring.

Please let us know if you need further assistance.

Thanks,

Not sure how they've been set up, but I've seen at least two Model 3s in the Bay Area with roof racks. And they weren't suction cup models - so someone's figured it out.

Shame it will only be available through Tesla stores, but not surprising.

Anyone use the easytop from Yakima? Seeing that a permanent solution won’t be available for the model 3 for a bit - was looking at this:

Until I read that article I thought it was just a place holder page. Guess some people got their xmas presents early. Hopefully my Model 3 will get here by then lol
