KAMEI's Corvara S boxes are the best designed and engineered boxes available. They look distinguished on any car, have a superb 'Just pull shut to lock' central locking system that makes them very easy to use (all KAMEI boxes have an easy closing feature of one sort or another), and have gas-assisted struts that allow for a smooth opening and closing motion that just isn't possible with other systems. And they also have KAMEI's ultra-low-profile ClickFix system, "the fastest in the world", for fixing the box to all brands of slotted aluminium bars, including BMW's. Note that the Corvara S boxes can't be fitted to steel bars. The only downside is that so much patented technology and quality doesn't come cheap, but they're good value compared to e.g. Thule Dynamic boxes which simply aren't as good. There's a general consensus that KAMEI, based in Wolfsburg in Germany, makes the best quality boxes on the market. Don't just take our word for it! They're a specialist box manufacturer, Quality Assured to ISO 9001, represented in over 40 countries, with numerous Best Buy awards over the years, including the last 6 consecutive Auto Express "Best Buy" awards! With their innovative and intelligent designs, top quality materials and engineering, and outstanding build quality, it's no surprise that KAMEI are Original Equipment box suppliers to several major manufacturers, including Audi, Mercedes-Benz and VW. And their boxes have the longest guarantee of any manufacturer in the car rack systems sector - 6 years! KAMEI originally built its reputation in the car styling sector over many decades, so it should be no surprise that they 'get it right' with both looks and aerodynamics. Both the lid and the base of the Corvara 390 boxes were styled to integrate with the latest car roof shapes; there's minimal front overhang, and hatchback tailgates can be fully opened - yet it's long enough for carving skis. Corvara's are great looking boxes, in our view the most stylish on the market. A bit small at 390 litres? We don't think so, having stuffed a Thule 480 litre box (196 x 78 x 44cm) and then packed all the same stuff in a Corvara 390 (190 x 75 x 43cm) with the aim of finding out what's going on here. KAMEI boxes are differently engineered to Thule boxes, with smaller internal dimensions, but the experiment proves the point that small increases in size, especially in height, will significantly increase the nominal capacity but not necessarily the real world usefulness. It's also fair to say that KAMEI tends to underestimate capacity. See the tab 'What does volume really mean?' for more information about this thorny topic. KAMEI central locking systems have the benefits of central locking without the potential drawbacks. Turn the key and the lid opens wide on its gas struts, but to close it you just pull the lid until it clicks shut - no need to hold the front and back shut while simultaneously turning the key. And you can’t lock the keys in the box inadvertently because the keys can’t be withdrawn from the lock until the box is properly shut. This is clever engineering. The ClickFix-System is claimed to be "the world's fastest roof box mounting system". Certainly we can't see how it could be any faster. Push the clamp down. Done - it automatically adjusts to all T-track profiles, even the BMW ones that usually require special adapters. Some other features:
