Extreme test for the rear box – nearly 7,000 km to Gambia

Follow-up report on Drive to Help e.V.
As part of the ‘Drive to Help’ aid project, four cars were equipped with a BackBox or a BackPack. On 19 March 2017, the cars set off on a four-week journey covering almost 7,000 km from Germany through seven countries on two continents to Gambia.

Rear box put through its paces – 7,000 km adventure with the BackBox to Gambia

If there’s one route that really puts a rear box through its paces, it’s this one!
As part of the ‘Drive to Help’ aid project, our BackBox passed a tough test with flying colours: almost 7,000 kilometres – across Europe and Africa, over bumpy tracks and difficult terrain – and without a single problem.

We have already reported on the charity drive in this article: Our rear box for Drive to Help e.V.

The advantages of the BackBox at a glance:

  • Sturdy construction for the most extreme conditions
  • Safe transport even for heavy loads
  • Perfect as a luggage box or ski box for the towbar

Whether for long expeditions, skiing holidays or everyday use: with our rear box for the towbar, you can rely on maximum reliability.

Loading a roof box is a challenge, especially with SUVs. The BackBox, on the other hand, is located at a convenient loading height. At the same time, safety is significantly higher than on the roof, even when driving sportily.
