A <b>rear box<\/b> \u2013 i.e., a <b>transport box for the towbar<\/b> \u2013 is much easier to load than a roof box, which is only accessible overhead. At the same time, the <b>center of gravity of the vehicle<\/b> remains low, which has a positive effect on <b>driving stability and handling<\/b>.<\/p><p>But one of the biggest advantages is <b>better aerodynamics<\/b>. While a roof box disrupts the airflow on the vehicle roof and thus significantly increases <b>air resistance<\/b>, a <b>rear box such as the BackBox from mft<\/b> blends harmoniously into the shape of the vehicle. The result: less air turbulence, lower resistance \u2013 and thus <b>lower energy consumption<\/b>.<\/p><h2>Rear box significantly reduces air resistance<\/h2><p>A study commissioned in 2016 investigated the influence of the <b>BackBox<\/b> on the flow behavior of a simplified car model. The result was clear: the use of the <b>rear box<\/b> greatly reduced the flow turbulence behind the vehicle. The <b>aerodynamic drag<\/b> of the entire vehicle decreased by about <b>5 percent<\/b> \u2013 despite the additional transport capacity!<\/p><p>By comparison, a roof box increased air resistance by around <b>35 percent<\/b> in the same test environment. This means that driving with a rear box is more efficient than without, while driving with a roof box is significantly less efficient.<\/p><h2>Travel more efficiently with lower consumption<\/h2><p>The lower air resistance of the <b>luggage box at the rear<\/b> has a direct impact on <b>fuel consumption<\/b> and <b>energy requirements in electric vehicles<\/b>. The <b>BackBox from mft<\/b> offers a real advantage, especially for electric cars, where every kilometer of range counts. Thanks to its aerodynamic shape, the range remains virtually unchanged \u2013 a clear advantage over roof boxes, which often reduce the range by 10\u201320 percent.<\/p><p>The <b>transport box for the towbar<\/b> also impresses in everyday use:<\/p><ul><li>Easy mounting without tools<\/li><li>Convenient loading and unloading at handle height<\/li><li>Secure hold on the towbar<\/li><li>No restriction of vehicle height \u2013 ideal for garages or parking garages<\/li><\/ul><h2>Conclusion: The BackBox from mft \u2013 aerodynamic, efficient, and comfortable<\/h2><p>If you are looking for a <b>practical, efficient, and aerodynamically optimized transport solution<\/b>, the <b>BackBox from mft<\/b> is the perfect alternative to the classic roof box. Mounting it on the towbar means that the airflow over the vehicle remains undisturbed, fuel consumption is reduced, and loading and unloading is child&#8217;s play.<\/p><p>Less air resistance, lower fuel consumption, greater convenience \u2013 the rear box is the modern solution for safe and efficient transport at the rear of the vehicle.<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-581da49 e-flex e-con-boxed e-con e-parent\" data-id=\"581da49\" data-element_type=\"container\" data-e-type=\"container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"e-con-inner\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-f4b816f elementor-widget elementor-widget-button\" data-id=\"f4b816f\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-e-type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"button.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-button-wrapper\">\n\t\t\t\t\t<a class=\"elementor-button elementor-button-link elementor-size-sm\" href=\"https:\/\/mft.systems\/en\/shop\/\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<span class=\"elementor-button-content-wrapper\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<span class=\"elementor-button-text\">Go to Shop<\/span>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/span>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/a>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Rear box instead of roof box: The BackBox from mft impresses with its aerodynamic shape and significantly reduces air resistance.
