Third party roof rack and tow options are totally possible for pretty much most of the mainline EVs. I'm putting a roof rack on my Volt for a ski trip in two weeks. Towing hitch is discouraged by manufacturer, but many many people have done it.

But yes, luggage is a concern. Though my Volt mostly fits my needs given we have a second, ICE, hauling vehicle.

There will be more options soon. I hope.

Not many options for Model X racks; kind of unsurprising given the door configuration. Though this nutter has his skis on there with a suction cup rack:

You can't put a roof rack on a Model X because of the wing doors.

Cannot legally add a tow hitch in Norway though.
