Anyone who enjoys traveling, camping, or simply needs additional storage space for everyday life knows the problem: the vehicle is quickly full – and roof boxes are often impractical, noisy, or increase fuel consumption. This is precisely where the rear boxes from ARAGON (TowBox) come in. They offer a well-thought-out, safe, and comfortable way to transport luggage directly on the rear of the vehicle – without restricting the interior.
With the TowBox models, ARAGON has created a product family that is optimized for different requirements: compact and lightweight, comfortable and tiltable, or fully swiveling for vans and campers. In the following, we will introduce the most important variants.
TowBox ALPHA – the compact all-round rear box for everyday life & travel
The TowBox ALPHA is aimed at anyone looking for a modern, lightweight, and particularly user-friendly rear box. It is ideally suited for cars, station wagons, SUVs, and also for urban everyday life.
Thanks to its tilting chassis, the ALPHA can be used in three positions: driving position, loading position, and folding position. This means that the trunk – depending on the vehicle – remains accessible even with the box mounted. The large rear opening is particularly practical, allowing for convenient loading and unloading without having to lift heavy luggage above shoulder height.
Another highlight is the sustainable construction: modern injection molding technology uses less plastic without compromising on stability or safety. Full LED taillights, an integrated roller system, and tool-free assembly complete the overall package.
In short:
The TowBox ALPHA is the ideal alternative to the roof box – quiet, aerodynamic, and perfect for travel, camping, or everyday use.
TowBox Camper – when full rear accessibility is required
For vans, transporters, camper vans, and vehicles with large rear doors, ARAGON offers a particularly clever solution with the TowBox Camper (V5 Swing). In contrast to classic rear boxes, this variant is laterally swiveling – thus enabling complete access to rear doors and tailgates without having to dismantle the box.
The centerpiece is the 180° swivel arm, which can be operated safely and smoothly even when loaded. An integrated support wheel takes over the weight and ensures stability. Especially in everyday camping, with frequent access to the interior or when traveling with a lot of luggage, this system is a real gain in comfort.
Like the ALPHA, the TowBox Camper offers 330 liters of storage space, is lockable, weatherproof, and equipped with modern LED lighting.
Camper Short (S) or Long (L)? Two variants for different vehicles
The TowBox Camper is available in two frame variants, which are based exclusively on the width of the rear doors or tailgate:
TowBox Camper Short (S)
This variant is designed for vehicles with a door or flap width of up to 1,520 mm. It is particularly suitable for compact vans and high-roof station wagons such as VW Caddy, Citroën Berlingo, or Renault Kangoo. The more compact design keeps the system manageable without sacrificing functionality.
TowBox Camper Long (L)
The long version is designed for large vans, transporters, and campers with door widths up to 2,100 mm. Vehicles such as VW Transporter, Mercedes Sprinter, or Fiat Ducato benefit from the larger swivel range, which enables unrestricted access even with very wide wing doors.
Important:
Technically, both variants are constructed in the same way – the vehicle width is the only deciding factor.
