Thule South Africa are expanding their local product offering with the launch of three new products that epitomise the brand’s ethos of “Bring your life”.
Thule’s design identity, which follows the philosophy of “Bring your life” encourages individuals to embrace their passions, whether it’s skiing, biking, running with kids or simply living life to the full.
Thule Allax:
Having dogs travel loosely in a vehicle is an extremely dangerous practice. If you should be involved in an accident and your pet is not adequately secured, he will be susceptible to serious injuries and could also cause injuries to human passengers.
The Thule Allax dog crate has been developed to ensure safe and comfortable car rides with four-legged family members. This innovative dog-carrying solution prioritises safety and comfort. Extensive crash testing resulted in the incorporation of an innovative crumple zone that provides superior protection for both passengers and the four-legged occupants of the crate.
Like all Thule’s products, the Allax boasts several innovative features, including rounded edges that ensure a perfect fit for both the car and the dog. The crate can also be adjusted in depth for a perfect fit in the boot of the vehicle before being secured by tension bands. A window offers improved visibility and allows owners to keep a close eye on their furry friends, while also allowing pets to take in the outside world from the safety of the crate.
Thule Motion 3:
Thule understands that many of the vehicles that are being fitted with rooftop cargo carriers are sleek and stylish and that they now offer a solution to match that aesthetic.
The Thule Motion 3 has been added to Thule’s extensive range of rooftop cargo carriers and offers the perfect blend of space, efficiency and style, an element that is accentuated by the Black or Titan glossy finish.
The Thule Motion 3 boasts clean lines and contemporary aesthetics that will complement the appearance of sleek modern vehicles, while expanding their luggage-carrying capacity. Designers also focused on aerodynamics, which resulted in a rooftop cargo carrier that minimises wind resistance.
Enhanced functionality includes an intuitive locking mechanism and dual side opening that can be operated with one hand, providing ease of access without sacrificing security or style.
Thule Outset:
The Thule Outset towbar-mounted tent is a unique new product that joins the product line up and allows adventurers to elevate their outdoor experience with unparallelled comfort, ease of use and great accessibility while offering a number of unique benefits.
The Thule Outset is the first tent on the market to mount directly onto the towbar of a vehicle for quick installation and spontaneous getaways.
Accessibility is a key feature of the Thule Outset, as its low height ensures easy access for everyone, including children, seniors and pets. The spacious interior also allow occupants to sit up inside the tent.
The Thule Outset is convenient to use as mounting the tent onto the car’s towbar is a one-person job, simplifying the set-up process. Once at your destination, the tent can simply be detached from the vehicle should the vehicle be required for day trips around the area. The tent can be securely locked at the campsite, providing peace of mind.
