Thule’s new line of Evo footpacks makes installing and securing your rack system easier than ever. The Evo Clamp footpack, along with the Evo Clamp Fit Kit, can be installed on roofs without pre-existing rack attachment points. Once the bar system is in place, the patented clamping technology ensures a secure fastening on a wide variety of naked roofs. The click-in mounting brackets are user-friendly and don’t require tools – all adding up to a simple installation process and perfect fit on your vehicle. For vehicles with raised railings, the Evo Raised Rail features a protective rubber lining that fits securely around the surface. Both Evo products use an ergonomic torque limiter key that clicks once the rack is in place, another user-friendly feature that eliminates second-guessing during installation. The Thule Evo Clamp footpack and Evo Raised Rail both have a sleek design, are easy to set up, and are compatible with virtually any naked roof or raised railing.
