roofbox

Rooftop luggage carrier

A roofbox is a streamlined storage container mounted on a vehicle's roof rack, used for extra cargo space during travel.

Also called a cargo box or roof cargo carrier.

We strapped the skis inside the roofbox for the drive to the mountains.

The aerodynamic shape reduces wind resistance compared to open roof racks.
