The advantage of Thule Motion XT Alpine is incl. simple roof mounting system thanks to the PowerClick system. It uses a clamping force indicator that "clicks" when the box is attached tightly enough - this ensures that the user can always be sure that the rack is securely fastened. An additional element increasing the safety of using the boot is the SlideLock locking system, which automatically locks the lid and clearly informs the user when the box is securely closed.

Soft external handles and lifts (providing adequate support) facilitate opening and closing regardless of environmental conditions - thanks to the Dual-Side system, the user can conveniently open the box from both sides of the car. Importantly, thanks to the shifting of the trunk towards the front of the car, the risk of the box coming into contact with the tailgate of a station wagon or hatchback is minimal.

The box can hold up to 7 pairs of skis (or 3 snowboards) with a maximum length of 215 cm. Its capacity is 450 liters, and the maximum load capacity is 75 kg. The price was set at PLN 3,819.00. The Thule Motion XT Alpine model is available in two color versions: Black Glossy and Titan Glossy.

Motorhome & Caravan news

Take your bike camping

The best solution is probably the mini-garages provided in the largest motorhomes. Not only a few bicycles can fit there, but also e.g. a scooter or a motorcycle. However, most motorhomes do not have this facility. So you have to deal differently. Two types of luggage racks are most commonly used. The first type - intended for motorhomes, is mounted on the rear wall of the vehicle. The second type are racks mounted on the trailer drawbar. In a motorhome, a rack such as the Omni-Bike Lift should work very well. It is mounted on the rear wall of the trailer in the form of a ladder to which two rails are attached. Bicycles are mounted on these rails. The distance between the wall of the motorhome and the first rail is 40 cm. 30 cm further there is the second rail.

Luggage security while driving a motorhome

It is hard to imagine a caravanner who blithely goes on the road without securing their luggage beforehand. Already after the first trip, he would have found out that this was at least an unwise move. Badly fastened luggage not only requires cleaning up afterwards - it is also very dangerous. Regardless of whether we are going on vacation by car, camper or taking a trailer with us, we must secure both the luggage inside the vehicle and the luggage mounted on the roof before the trip. When it comes to the interior of the motorhome, an alcove is most often used as an additional luggage compartment. You can quickly stuff larger items such as a table or chairs in it. However, it should be borne in mind that improper (not very careful) fastening of such luggage may not only risk damaging the alcove with its windows, but also be dangerous for travel companions.

Sawiko offers nearly two decades of solutions dedicated to caravanning enthusiasts - from the design and production of support systems to fastening systems. Since January 2012, the German manufacturer has been a company of the AL-KO group. The combination of the competences of both companies resulted in new proposals in the field of transport systems. During Caravan Salon 2015, new products from both companies (Sawiko / AL-KO) were presented. All of them are a response to the needs of safe and comfortable transport of two-wheelers.
