Inno Wedge 660 Roof Box Review
The Inno Wedge 660 ($850) is a sleek, aerodynamic roof box that prioritizes hauling low-profile gear and minimizing road noise. The painted shell looks and feels premium, and the mounting system is refreshingly user-friendly. That said, we found the limited interior height restricts what you can carry—it struggled with bulkier items like camping mats and thicker sleeping bags—and the locking system isn’t as confidence-inspiring as other high-end options.

The Inno Wedge 660 prioritizes a low-profile, aerodynamic design, and that sleek shape comes with clear tradeoffs in usable space. At just 11 inches tall externally (9.2 in. inside), it’s significantly shallower than traditional boxes like the Yakima SkyBox NX XL (16 in. external height), which offers much more vertical room for bulky gear. In practice, I found the Wedge struggled with taller items: a large camping mattress wouldn’t allow the lid to close, and I ran into similar issues with thick sleeping bags and overstuffed duffels. This simply isn’t a box for bulky car camping gear, strollers, or anything with much height.
Where the Inno Wedge 660 does shine is carrying flatter loads—think skis, foldable chairs, and smaller luggage. I was able to fit my family of four’s ski setups—including poles—without issue. Inno lists a 6–8 pair max capacity, which is likely doable with some creative stacking, but I can confidently say four adult pairs fit comfortably without risking any damage to the skis. The stated max length of 182 centimeters also felt conservative: I had no trouble loading skis right at that length, and I suspect a single longer pair closer to 190cm could fit at an angle if needed. Inside, the flat floor makes loading straightforward, although the four mounting clamps do take up some space and can get in the way when packing duffels or bags. On the plus side, those clamps help stabilize skis, especially when paired with the included strap system, which does a nice job keeping everything locked in place (more on this in “Features” below).
With dual-sided openings, accessing the Inno’s interior is refreshingly straightforward. Each side has its own lock, and the key operates separately from the push-button release, which eliminates any strain on the key—a small but appreciated detail. The mechanism itself is smooth and low effort, comparable to the sliding systems on Thule’s Motion 3 and Force 3, and noticeably easier to operate than the stiffer handle on the Yakima SkyBox NX. It’s similar in concept to Yakima’s RocketBox, but we found it more refined and easier to use overall.
The low-profile design also helps here. Because the box sits closer to the roof—even when fully open—it’s easier to reach inside, especially on taller vehicles. While the interior height limits what you can fit (roughly 9 in.), the opening itself is quite generous. I measured it at 14.5 inches, which puts it on par with larger, high-capacity roof cargo boxes like the Thule Motion 3 XL and notably wider than the SkyBox NX XL (around 12 in.). That said, the wide opening can be a bit misleading—it occasionally gave me the impression I could fit taller items than the box actually allows.
From the outset, the Inno Wedge 660 felt like a premium product. The glossy shell has a refined, automotive-like finish, and the lid opens and closes with smooth, well-weighted hinges that avoid the floppiness you see on cheaper boxes (like we found on the SportRack Vista XL). Build quality is right in line with high-end models like Thule’s Motion 3, which is impressive given that the Inno comes in hundreds of dollars less. The mounting system follows suit, using thick, sturdy plastic components with clamps that feel secure and confidence-inspiring once tightened. It all comes together as a thoughtfully built, high-end design that largely justifies the cost. One nice bonus: Inno offers multiple color options—white or black—which is increasingly rare in a category dominated by all-black boxes.
On the road, the Wedge is exceptionally stable. Its low-profile, aerodynamic shape minimizes movement at highway speeds, and I didn’t notice any of the flex or vibration that can show up with taller, bulkier designs. It’s also notably quiet—another advantage of its sleek shape—and doesn’t rely on additional front reinforcements to maintain structure. Weather protection has also been solid in testing. The lid overlaps the base to form a good seal, and while there are small openings around the sliding mounting hardware, a rubber slit does a decent job of limiting moisture intrusion. It’s not fully waterproof—no roof box is—but short of truly rough conditions, I’ve found it keeps gear well protected.
Installing the Inno Wedge 660 is quick and intuitive, even on a first attempt. I mounted it straight out of the box in an REI parking lot, and after a brief glance at the instructions, the process was straightforward. The clamp system is the highlight: the four clamps come uninstalled, but setup is simple. You open the lever, adjust the gray dial to loosen the clamps, set the box on the roof, slide the clamps into position, tighten, and then clip the lever shut to lock everything in place. The design is similar to Thule’s PowerClick system, but I prefer Inno’s approach—it skips the small plastic tabs to connect the clamps to the box and instead uses a more direct, secure-feeling connection through a rubber slit.
Once the box is on the roof, everything feels solid and well-aligned. At 42 pounds and with its length, lifting it into place is best done with two people, but the process is manageable on most vehicles. The clamps are also quite versatile, accommodating a wide range of crossbar shapes from factory aero bars to aftermarket Thule and Yakima systems. My only real nitpick is the lack of a torque-limiting mechanism like Thule’s click system, so you’ll need to rely on feel when tightening. The upside is that once you’ve set the clamps' tightness, they hold that adjustment for future installs, which speeds things up the next time around.
The Inno Wedge 660 comes with a fairly standard but generally well-executed feature set for a premium roof box. The locking system is user-friendly, with separate components for the key and opening mechanism: insert and turn the key to unlock, then press the button to pop the lid open. Closing follows the reverse process, and like most roof cargo boxes in this category, the key is designed not to release until the lid is secured. However, I did run into an issue here. Unlike Thule and Yakima’s premium systems—which require all three side latch points to be fully engaged—the Inno would allow the key to be removed with only one latch secured. That meant I had to double-check by pulling up on the lid at multiple points to ensure everything was properly closed, especially when the box was fully loaded. It’s manageable, but a notable shortcoming for a box at this price.
Beyond that, the rest of the feature set is practical and thoughtfully designed. Two adjustable straps are included and can be threaded through the mounting hardware to secure skis or compressible gear, which I found useful enough to leave installed full-time. Inno also includes small hooks that attach to the interior roof, allowing you to hang the straps out of the way while loading—a small but genuinely helpful touch. There’s no pull-down strap for closing the lid, but given the Wedge’s low-profile shape, I didn’t find it particularly necessary in day-to-day use.

Longevity
Choosing durable outdoor gear and keeping it in use for longer is one of the best ways to reduce environmental impact. Our proprietary longevity rating assesses factors like overall build quality, materials, fabric denier, component durability, and real-world performance. A green check indicates that we expect the product to be long-lasting relative to its peers, a yellow check mark indicates average longevity, and a red X indicates a product that may have a limited lifespan.
Recycled Materials
Recycled materials are prevalent in outdoor gear, with nylon, polyester, wool, and down among the most common, but the composition varies widely. A green check mark indicates the product is made with a substantial amount of recycled materials (100% recycled or the core fabric that makes up most of the product is recycled), a yellow check means it contains a moderate to small amount of recycled materials, while a red X means there are no recycled materials in the product.
Replacement Parts
Replacement parts help extend a product’s lifespan by allowing consumers to repair damaged components—like ski goggle lenses or trekking pole clips—rather than purchasing a new one. A green check indicates a brand offers a robust selection of replacement parts, a yellow check indicates a more limited offering, and a red X indicates no replacement parts are available for this product.
Responsible Manufacturing
This criterion evaluates a brand’s commitment to fair wages, safe working conditions, and reducing environmental impact through certifications and programs like Fair Trade Certified, Fair Wear Foundation, Worldwide Responsible Accredited Production (WRAP), and the Fair Labor Association, while also recognizing brands that manufacture primarily in the U.S. or Europe under strict labor and environmental regulations. A green check mark indicates a brand meets our responsible manufacturing criteria, while a red X means it does not.
Recycled and/or Reduced Packaging
Packaging can add significant waste to outdoor gear purchases, so many brands work to reduce its impact by using recycled materials, incorporating Forest Stewardship Council-certified paper products, and minimizing plastic and paper use. A green check mark indicates a brand uses recycled or reduced materials across all of its packaging, a yellow check indicates moderate or limited use of recycled or reduced packaging, and a red X indicates the brand does not make either of these efforts.
Carbon Footprint Tracking
This criterion evaluates whether a brand measures, reports, and works to reduce its greenhouse gas emissions using established frameworks such as the Higg Index, Greenhouse Gas Protocol, or The Change Climate Project. A green check mark indicates a brand publicly reports greenhouse gas emissions data, sets clearly defined reduction targets, and uses established tracking frameworks such as Higg or The Change Climate Project. A yellow check mark indicates the brand tracks emissions and outlines reduction goals but provides limited data, lacks science-based verification, or does not clearly report progress. A red X indicates the brand does not appear to track greenhouse gas emissions or provides so little information that its efforts cannot be verified.
Annual Impact Report
Annual impact reports provide transparency and accountability by outlining a brand’s sustainability efforts across areas such as material sourcing, greenhouse gas emissions, waste, water use, supply chains, and packaging. A green check mark indicates a brand publishes a detailed, brand-specific impact report that closely aligns with our sustainability criteria and leaves little room for ambiguity. A yellow check indicates a brand provides some relevant sustainability reporting but lacks detail in key areas or is covered only briefly within a parent company report. A red X indicates a brand does not regularly publish an impact report.
I tested the Inno Wedge 660 on both a Volkswagen Golf Alltrack (a compact wagon) and a larger Jeep Grand Cherokee L, and in both cases, fitment was seamless. The box’s proportions pair especially well with small and midsize vehicles, where it doesn’t look oversized or overhang excessively, but it also scales nicely on larger SUVs. The mounting system accommodates crossbar spreads from 24 to 39 inches, which should cover most setups. On my vehicles—with spreads of 27 and 30 inches—the box mounted without issue, and the clamps secured without issue to both Thule Aero bars and aftermarket BrightLines bars.
Hatch clearance is always worth checking with roof boxes, though Inno doesn’t publish a minimum required length. Typically, you measure from your front crossbar to the closest contact point when the hatch is open to ensure it’ll fit. On my Golf Alltrack, which has a measured clearance of 54 inches, there was still several inches of space when opening the rear hatch. Based on that, I’d expect the Wedge 660 to work on most vehicles without interference, though folks with very short-roofed hatchbacks or compact SUVs may want to double-check measurements before buying.
Yakima SkyBox NX XL ($849): More Versatile, Less Sleek
The SkyBox NX XL and Wedge 660 take very different approaches to hauling gear. The SkyBox is built for versatility, with a taller, roomier interior that easily handles bulky items like camping mattresses, large duffels, and tents—gear that didn’t fit in the Wedge’s shallow, low-profile design. And it accommodates longer skis (up to 195 cm) compared to the Wedge’s more limited 182 cm. In contrast, the Wedge leans into a sleeker, more aerodynamic shape that’s quieter on the road and feels more premium in its finish and smoother, easier-to-operate opening mechanism. Summed up, the SkyBox is the better all-around hauler, while the Wedge trades that versatility for a lower profile and more refined on-vehicle presence. For more, read our SkyBox NX XL review.
Thule Motion 3 XL Low ($1,149): The Step Up
Thule’s Motion 3 is the brand’s premium offering, and the XL low is their sleekest of the bunch. That said, it’s still a larger box in nearly all ways compared with the Inno: it’s about 3 inches taller, can carry skis up to 200 centimeters, and has a total capacity of 14 cubic feet. If you want a little more versatility while retaining a very sleek and premium look, the Motion 3 is hard to beat. But with a $300 jump in price, it’s a hard sell if you don’t need that extra capacity. And the Inno doesn’t make many compromises in anything from build quality to ease of use.
Sleek, quiet, and undeniably sharp-looking, the Wedge 660 is built for hauling skis and other low-profile gear without adding much bulk to your roof. Just know that its slim design comes with tradeoffs—this isn’t the box for hefty cargo.

Is the Wedge 660 for You?
The Inno Wedge 660 is best if you prioritize a sleek, low-profile design and primarily haul skis, fishing poles, or other flat gear. It’s a particularly strong match for daily drivers or for those who value minimizing wind noise and bulk, and it works well for ski trips with multiple setups. That said, the shallow interior makes it a poor choice for bulkier cargo like camping gear, strollers, or large duffels, and the locking system requires a bit more diligence to ensure everything is fully secured. As an all-rounder, it’s hard to recommend. But for the right user, the Inno Wedge’s premium build and great style have plenty of appeal.
