The aluminum roof rack for the Nissan Townstar built from 2022 onwards was developed specifically for the current model generation. As an identical model to the Mercedes Citan II, the Townstar is based on a modern platform – and this roof rack system has been designed with the same precision. Thanks to its aerodynamic crossbars, the rack is ideal for tradespeople, service vehicles, and commercial users who spend a lot of time on the highway.
Lightweight, aerodynamic, and professional for the Nissan Townstar
Made of corrosion-resistant, galvanized aluminum, the roof rack combines high stability with low weight. Compared to classic steel roof racks, aluminum offers significant advantages: less additional weight, no rust problems, and a permanently clean appearance – even with intensive use.
The optimized tube shape noticeably reduces wind noise and air resistance. This keeps the vehicle quieter and more efficient than with simple crossbar systems, especially during frequent highway driving.
The rear rollers are included as standard and extend across the entire width of the roof rack. This makes it much easier to slide ladders, profiles, or long items onto the rack while also protecting the vehicle roof.

Application profile & comparison
The aluminum roof rack for the Nissan Townstar is particularly suitable for:
- Craft businesses that regularly transport ladders
- Field service technicians

Compared to simple roof crossbars, the closed roof basket offers significantly more stability and securing options. Compared to steel versions, aluminum impresses with its lower weight and better corrosion resistance – an advantage in daily use.
Installation on the Nissan Townstar
The basket is attached to the factory-provided fixing points under the roof covers. After removing the plastic caps, the mounting feet are screwed in place and the roof rack is securely mounted. Detailed installation instructions are available under "Technical Details."
Optional accessories for maximum flexibility
