This overall score is made up of: ease of loading/unloading (50%), ease of fitting to the roof bars (25%) and lock/lid opening (25%).

Ease of fitting score View more details.

How easy the roof box is to fit to the car's roof bars. 

Loading and unloading score View more details.

How easy it is to load and unload items into and out of the roof box. The best-scoring models are reasonably wide so they are easy to reach from the side of the car.

Lid opening/lock score View more details.

How easy it is to open and close the lid, and lock or unlock it. The best-scoring models can be opened from either side, so you can do it from the passenger side, which is safer if you've pulled over on the side of the road.

How much more fuel you're likely to use when carrying the roof box.
