Thanks for the idea, I'll keep it in mind. I am wanting to be able to carry camping supplies. This looks like you have to remove your license plate, and it needs to anchor to a trailer hitch, which the EVs don't have. I might resort to adding hitch if this roof rack idea falls thru. People said it's possible, but people also said the roof rack is possible.


Contrary to what I have read, the EV roof is different than the ICE.

The ICE has nuts welded in the raingutter, like 2 feet apart. So I could not just buy the ICE roof molding, there are things we do not have. Kia Parts dept did not feel the metal loops that hold the ends of the trim are adequate anchors.


The only way I have found so far is to have someone (Rack n Road, Seattle) drill and rivet 4 hooks to my roof.

Cheap rails =$550

Aerodynamic rails =$650


I'm not ready to rivet hooks.
