Yakima has released its StreamLine integrated roof rack system. Designed from the ground up, the StreamLine system is said to be Yakima’s most advanced and toughest roof rack system ever.

A comprehensive system designed and built to accommodate multiple vehicle types, Yakima says the StreamLine system combines advanced aerodynamics and clean lines with exceptional strength and versatility.

The StreamLine collection uses pitch and tow adjustments to mimic the curvature of your vehicle’s roof for a stronger and better fit, with three distinct crossbar options to maximise styling and cargo possibilities that are central to the system.

The JetStream bar is an aerodynamic through-bar for extra carrying width and is engineered with a 21mm T-slot attachment and SmartFill push-down technology, so that gear and accessories can be added quickly and easily. The wing-shaped bar profile creates an aerodynamic design for reduced wind noise and is rated for a maximum of 75kg* per pair.

The JetStream FX bar is an aerodynamic flush-bar with similar features to the Jetstream but with a flush-connected look to provide a sleeker appearance. Like the JetStream bar, the JetStream FX has undergone comprehensive wind-tunnel testing and is rated for a maximum of 75kg* per pair.

The TrimHD through-bar is built tough and is the heavy-duty offering, allowing for a higher load rating of 100kg. The 21mm T-slots make adding your gear and accessories fast and easy, while load strips, featuring an airflow diffuser ridge, helps with load carrying and reduces wind noise.

The StreamLine system also features eight fully adjustable leg solutions to suit Jetstream, Jetstream FX and TrimHD bars. Each of the BaseLine, SightLine, SkyLine and TimberLine legs are made with a steel chassis, high rust-resistant coating, and ASA plastic for strong weather resistance and UV stability. For vehicles with fixed points, the SkyLine system comes with easy tool-free removal and reattachment.

“This innovative range offers a variety of fits for different vehicles, combining advanced aerodynamics and sleek design with remarkable strength for maximum versatility," said Chris Jones, Senior Engineering Manager at Yakima Australia. "The StreamLine system is designed and tested in Australia to withstand the harsh Australian and New Zealand climates, ensuring durability and reliability.”

“Compatible with most Yakima racking accessories, the StreamLine system allows for adventures of any size. Whether it's a big road trip or a small outing, StreamLine makes it all possible,” Jones added.

Sleek, stylish, and built to complement a vehicle’s natural shape, StreamLine is available now and compatible with all Yakima rack accessories to accommodate everything from cargo solutions to bike, water and snow gear transportation. Yakima offers a limited lifetime warranty on this range.

*Product load rating is per pair but the actual carrying capacity of your system will depend on your vehicle’s roof rating and other factors such as whether you are travelling offroad.

Pricing: from $110
