Review: Motion 3 XL on Toyota Highlander - Highly Recommend! - This cargo box is incredibly well designed from both an esthetics and functional point of view. The XL fits like a glove on our 2023 Highlander. I was really wanting to try the XXL but according to my measurements and the fitment chart provided by Thule, it appears the hatch would contact the box on that model. I went with the XL for peace of mind since I knew it would fit and it’s plenty of space for for our needs. We can easily fit two full sized suitcases and one carryon size with plenty of room around them to stuff other miscellaneous items. Installation was a breeze and took me less than 10 minutes. The vehicle with the box still fits in the garage and can be opened and loaded there as well. The lock and latching mechanism make opening and closing the box a breeze - it feels much smoother than the old Yakima Skybox I had before and overall this feels much higher quality. I’ve only had the carrier for a day so will update later with better pictures and more information on road noise and durability.
Review: Super high-quality and very streamlined - Great storage space and fits very low on the roof much more streamlined than I thought. Easy to take on and off of the roof rack of my Tesla with the included claws that it has.

Great storage space and fits very low on the roof much more streamlined than I thought. Easy to take on and off of the roof rack of my Tesla with the included claws that it has.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Satisfied with My Purchase Despite Shipping Delays
*by J***Z on September 29, 2025*

Great purchase overall! I did have some inconveniences with the order, which caused me a lot of headaches and took more time than expected. Thankfully, everything went smoothly in the end, and I finally received my order in great condition. Some people mentioned issues with the adhesive in the front, but you can simply use an adhesive spray to remove it easily without leaving any residue or marks. One thing to note: mine came with a very small dent from the inside out. It looks like a minor factory assembly issue, but it’s barely noticeable and not a big deal I’m keeping it. The main problem I experienced was the shipping, which required a lot of follow-up and persistence before they finally delivered it. Aside from that, I’m very satisfied with the product. The dimensions are perfect and exactly what I was looking for. I installed it myself without much trouble. The box isn’t heavy, but you should handle it with care if you drop it, it could break.
