The Speed Read
For 30 years, a roof box meant a 25 kg plastic shell you could barely lift, couldn’t store, and dreaded mounting. We thought there had to be a better way.

16.5 kg. Mounts in under two minutes. One person. No tools. No help. Just you and the open road.

Crash-tested to 26.8 G at 50 km/h – the same standard as a child’s car seat. No other roof box has ever passed this test.

520 litres of space on your roof. Rolls down to 81 × 30 cm when you’re done. Fits in a wardrobe. Carries over your shoulder.

25.6% less aerodynamic drag. Whether you drive petrol or electric, Twistboxes saves fuel, preserves range, and stays silent at any speed.

Tested from –35 °C Arctic cold to +50 °C desert heat. UV-protected. Salt-resistant. 1,700+ hours of exposure testing. This is Nordic engineering for the whole planet.

You’ve Been Settling for Less. You Just Didn’t Know It.
Every roof box on the market asks you to make the same trade-offs your parents made: wrestle a 25 kg plastic shell onto your car. Find somewhere to store it when summer ends. Accept the wind noise, the fuel penalty, the two-person mounting ritual. Twistboxes is the first roof box designed around how you actually live – not how the industry has always done things.
30 years unchanged.
Until now.
Since the 1990s, roof boxes have been the same thing: heavy plastic shells that take two people to mount and a garage to store. Twistboxes is the first fundamental redesign in a generation – lighter, tougher, safer, and radically easier to live with. Patented. Crash-tested. No tools. No compromises.
No Garage? No Problem. No Storage Room? Even Better.
Traditional roof boxes demand a garage, a ceiling hoist, or half your storage room. Twistboxes folds to 81 × 30 cm – smaller than a suitcase. Slide it into a wardrobe. Lean it behind a door. Keep it in the boot of your car. For the first time, a full-size 520-litre roof box fits the way you actually live.

Star Night Black
Finished in a deep, non-reflective black, Twistboxes complements your car's silhouette without competing with it. The surface resists scratches, dirt, and UV – keeping its stealthy look through every season.

Secure Buckle System
Military-grade buckles keep the box tight when rolled up. Built to last, trip after trip.

Waterproof Zippers
Reinforced zippers tested to 150 kg. Sealed against rain, snow, and road spray. Smooth in any temperature.

Patented Steel Innovation
A first-of-its-kind stainless-steel base plate for rigid stability, safety, and silence on the road.

Inside Straps
Integrated tie-downs hold skis, bags, and gear in place. No shifting on sharp turns or mountain roads.

900D Oxford Fabric
Heavy-duty expedition-grade weave. UV50+ rated. Keeps its shape in rain, sun, snow and salt.

Adjustable shoulder strap
Sling it over your shoulder and walk to the car. Easy to adjust. Easy to carry.

Finally.
A Roof Box You Can’t Hear.
Traditional roof boxes scream at highway speeds. Twistboxes doesn’t make a sound. Its wing-shaped profile and forward-leaning nose cut aerodynamic drag by 25.6% compared to conventional hard-shell boxes of the same size – independently verified by CFD simulation. Less drag means less fuel burned, more electric range preserved, and zero wind noise at any legal speed. The shape isn’t just beautiful. It pays for itself every time you drive.

25.6% Less Drag
Every roof box costs you fuel. But not equally. Twistboxes’ wing-shaped profile and fabric-over-steel construction produces 25.6% less aerodynamic drag than a traditional plastic-shell box of the same size, independently verified by CFD simulation. On a long summer drive or a ski trip through the Alps, that’s a measurable difference at the fuel pump – and for EV drivers, it’s extra kilometres of range you keep instead of losing to air resistance.

Tested Beyond
Every Standard in
the Industry.
Most roof boxes are tested to the City Crash standard – an impact at 18 km/h. That's where the industry stops. We kept going. Twistboxes passed the City Crash Test at 18 km/h and 13 G. Then the High-Speed Test at 30 km/h. Then UNECE R129 – the same crash-test standard used for child car seats – at 50 km/h and 26.8 G of force. All independently verified by VTI, Sweden's National Road and Transport Research Institute, at full 75 kg load. Without damage. Without deformation. Fully functional after impact. No other roof box has ever passed this test. Probably because no other brand made safety the starting point.

Because Safety Was Never Optional
From day one, we knew what was at stake: a 16.5 kg object on your roof, 75 kg cargo, at highway speeds, in real-world conditions. So our mission was uncompromising – build the safest roof box ever made, or don't build one at all. Your safety, your passengers, your gear, and everyone else on the road deserved nothing less.

~25.6%
Tested by independent CFD simulation on a Volvo XC40 against a leading hard-shell box of equivalent volume – same roof position, same conditions. At 97 km/h, Twistboxes added 29 N of drag versus 39 N for the traditional box. That's 25.6% less aerodynamic energy loss. Twistboxes also generates double the lift force (88 N vs 44 N), further reducing rolling resistance. On smaller cars, the efficiency advantage is even greater.

What's in the box
Every Twistboxes ships complete and ready to mount. Inside the box: one Twistboxes 520L roof box, one full mounting kit with T-bolt and U-bolt hardware, an adjustable shoulder strap for carrying, internal tie-down straps, and a step-by-step instruction manual. Locks are available separately – everything else is included.
Thanks to its compact 85 × 35 x 35 cm packaging, a full-size roof box can finally be picked up from a parcel point, fit inside your car, and carried through any doorway.

Jag och fyra kompisar bilade från Sverige ner till Alperna för en veckas skidsemester. Fem personer, all packning, skidor och vinterkläder - utan Twistboxes hade det inte varit möjligt.
Monteringen var grymt enkel och gick snabbt att fixa innan avfärd. Att packa i och ur var minst lika smidigt, man kommer åt från alla håll och slipper krångla som med traditionella boxar.
Det bästa? Stabiliteten och ljudnivån. På vägarna ner genom Tyskland körde vi i över 200 km/h och boxen var helt tyst. Ingen vindbrus, inget skrammel, bara ren körglädje.
Efter resan rullade vi ihop den och förvarade den enkelt hemma. Så smidig lösning jämfört med en stor plastbox som tar halva förrådet.
5 stjärnor för denna grymma produkt - rekommenderas starkt!
This is one of the best foldable roof boxes I’ve used. A few small details could still be refined, but overall it’s a solid product. As for value, I’m still undecided whether it fully justifies the price.
Installation is fairly straightforward. That said, I’m 185 cm and 87 kg, and even for me lifting it onto a taller SUV, in my case a Tesla Model Y, takes some effort. Someone smaller or lighter might find that part challenging. That’s not a design flaw, just something worth keeping in mind. Notice how in the video the roof rack does not actually have the T-bolts on the rack and thus the model can just slide the box on the roof. Trust me it is not that easy ;). Of course one could add the T-bolts later but then centering the whole box becomes a tad harder. I have solved this below.
The zippers run smoothly thanks to the flat surface they travel across, but the zipper pulls themselves aren’t very durable, mine broke on week 2 during winter use at -20C. I replaced mine with sturdier ones and reused the originals on the lighter inner cover.
I also replaced the included clamp nuts with plastic wing nuts, which are much quicker to tighten and remove. Earlier versions used wing nuts as well, and in my opinion that was the better solution. The clamp nuts that come with the Twistbox V3 tend to come apart once the barrel tape wears off, and they’re not really designed for frequent full removal since the barrel can separate when it isn’t secured by a bolt. They’re better suited for applications like a bike seat clamp, where they only need occasional loosening and tightening. I think this is poor design choice.
Another detail is the internal strap, which only has one buckle. I modified mine so it can be closed and tightened from both sides, which makes it more practical.
To make installation easier, I marked my roof rack for the T-bolt positions so I can quickly align them at the correct spacing. I also added plastic caps to the T-bolts so the box can slide into place without the bolts scraping or damaging the fabric underneath.
Some of these tweaks would be great to see implemented in future versions.
Pro tip: The easiest way to dry the box is to store it on its side.
I took my Twistbox on a camping adventure with my children rin Australia recently. I was able to set it up and put it on the roof of my car quickly and easily by myself. I am a short female and not young or particularly strong. I also was able to remove it and roll it up just as easily and it is now stored comfortable in my tiny storage space. On the trip it stayed sturdy and strong on the rough roads and mountain driving. It withstood 43 degrees Celsius and stayed dry in some impressive summer thunderstorms. It also spent a week by the beach and, with a quick brush down, it looks just like new. This Twistbox ticks all the boxes and can handle the tough Australian conditions. A truely genius invention.
I’ll be real, I expected it to be a bit sketchy at high speed, and I was sure the zipper would freeze up in real winter conditions. But it’s been zero drama. No weird noise on the highway, no flapping, and the zipper has held up way better than I thought, even in proper cold.
Big win is how easy it is to live with. When it’s not on the car, you can actually store it like normal gear, in a closet or under the bed, instead of it owning your whole storage room.
For context: I’ve been living in Åre and I’ve skied my whole life, so I’m picky with anything that’s supposed to handle real winter and real use. Twistboxes has honestly surprised me in the best way.
Why choose a Twistboxes roof box?
Twistboxes is the next generation of roof storage. Rolls up when not in use, fits easily in your home, and gives you the freedom to travel without sacrificing your living space. It is aerodynamically engineered to cut air resistance by 25.6 percent, improving fuel and energy efficiency while delivering a completely whistling-free drive.
Tested to the same crash-test standard as child car seats, it sets a new benchmark for what a roof box can be.
Features that redefine what a roof box can be
Twistboxes is designed for real life. Side and full-top access let you pack from any angle without stretching or scratching your car. The foldable sides protect your vehicle when loading, and the lightweight 16.5 kg construction allows one-person handling with ease.
Because it rolls into a compact form, storage becomes effortless. No garage hooks. No ceiling lifts. No need for extra space. It is the only full-size roof box you can pick up as a parcel and carry home in its own compact packaging.
Everyday convenience meets adventure-ready performance
Twistboxes is built for both the everyday and the exceptional. School runs, IKEA trips, weekend escapes, surf gear, golf bags, camping equipment or a family ski holiday – one roof box adapts to all of it. Its compact storage size makes it ideal for city living and small cars, while its 520 liters of capacity matches the volume of traditional full-size roof boxes.
Finding the right roof box is simple when innovation does the work
Because Twistboxes fits all roof racks and all car types, you do not need to choose between models or sizes. One patented construction works across compact cars, sedans, estates and SUVs. Traditional roof boxes require storing a large plastic shell when not in use. Twistboxes eliminates that problem entirely – rolling into a form you can store in a closet, hallway or your car trunk.
A smarter standard for modern travel.
FAQ
Absolutely! It has a steel skeleton that runs along the entire underside as well as the front of the Twistboxes. The attachment of the product to the roof of the car takes place in the steel – which guarantees high strength even during panic braking at high speed. The steel frame also prevents loosely packed items in the box from flying out through the front. We think our solution is safer than other products on the market that is made of plastic or fiberglass – which may crack in case of high stress.
Certainly! Twistboxes remains stable whether it's loaded up or empty – no wobbling while you drive.
No, it is very difficult to open with a knife or other tools. The fabric, which is very strong, is on both the inside and outside of the box, i.e. double-sided. Between the fabrics, there is a stainless steel plate at the bottom and a 3 mm thick plastic in the roof and sides, which is also lined. It makes it impossible to easily cut open a Twistboxes.
Yes you can. It works with a padlock and cable in the right length. This is available as an accessory.
It fits all market roof racks. Mount using the "quick mount", recommended with 4 T-bolts and 4 Twistboxes mounts. Alternatively, use 4 U-clamps with 8 Twistboxes mounts, depending on your rack's design. Maximum width for racks without a T-rail is 7 cm since the included U-clamp is 8 cm wide.
Mount it on your roof rack with Twistboxes' unique fittings. Se our instruction page for more info.
Gen3 weighs 16,4 kg.
Yes! It is both lighter and has lower air resistance than other roof boxes of the same size. In an independent test, air resistance was 25% lower than a comparable traditional roof box. Add to that – Twistboxes can be easily folded on the roof and transported flat when empty, which provides minimal air resistance.
The length of the roof box is 2 meters. But you can put in much longer items than that. This is done by not pulling the back zip – then, for example, your long skis can stick out. There are fastening straps inside the roof box that you then attach the skates to to prevent them from slipping out.
Twistboxes do not limit the speed of your vehicle. Rather, the limitation lies in the maximum permitted speed the vehicle can handle. Don't forget to follow the speed sign!
18,4 kg
85 × 35 × 35 cm
Yes, it's equipped with UV50+ protection, making it almost sun-resistant. However, like all materials, it might fade over time. It's a good idea not to expose it to strong sunlight for prolonged periods.
The Twistboxes is made of waterproof fabric sewn with thread that minimizes water penetration. But it may occur that water penetrates in heavy rainfall. Always pack sensitive items in waterproof bags, such as our own duffelbags. For environmental reasons, the fabric is not treated with a means of mold (because of its toxic character). To avoid mold not occurring, make sure that the Twistboxes always has the opportunity to dry up completely, avoid, for example, rolling your Twistboxes immediately after a heavy rainy weather. If mold were to occur – be sure to wipe it off with a moistened cloth immediately and your Twistboxes will not be damaged.
It's been tested in extreme conditions, enduring heavy snowfall and temperatures as low as -35°C.
No, but the fabric and zippers are waterproof. But in heavy rein, water can get in!
Absolutely! Check it in as regular luggage; it's compact and lighter than most suitcases.
Clean the box inside and out with soap and water only. Use a soft cloth to avoid scratches. Make sure the product is dry before rolling it up and storing it to avoid mold growth.
