How to choose the right size car cover?

To choose suitable protection for your car, first decide whether it is parked indoors or outdoors. Then check its length, width and height, as well as any fixed rear wing, roof bars or aerial.

Key point: vehicle length is a useful starting point, but it does not guarantee fit on its own. My Roadster® covers are offered by size range and are not custom-made.

Choose in three steps

1. Indoors or outdoors?

A Stretch™ cover is intended for a clean, dry car stored indoors. For outside parking, choose protection specifically designed for outdoor use.

2. Which area should be covered?

Choose a full cover, half cover, windscreen protector or car reveal cover according to the parking period and how often the vehicle is used.

3. What vehicle size?

Check the overall length, width and height. Allow for rear wings, aerials, roof bars and other fixed equipment.

Outdoor car cover

SizeVehicle lengthCheck before ordering
S3.80 to 4.20 mWidth, height, aerial and aerodynamic parts.
M4.20 to 4.50 mAllow for a prominent rear wing or a body close to the size limit.
L4.50 to 5.00 mCheck large saloons, GT cars and wide bodies carefully.

SUVs and crossovers

The Stretch™ SUV cover is designed for taller body styles, from compact crossovers to family SUVs. It has been tested on an Alfa Romeo Junior, approximately 4.17 × 1.78 × 1.53–1.54 m, and a Renault Kadjar, approximately 4.49 × 1.84 × 1.61 m.

These are real fit references, not the absolute limits of the stretch fabric. Roof bars, running boards and spoilers must also be considered.

Protective car drapes and car reveal covers

A car reveal cover is not only for showrooms. It can quickly cover a car or motorcycle in a garage or private lock-up, support a delivery or reveal, and is easier to choose when the product is intended as a gift.

How to measure the car

  1. Measure from the front bumper to the furthest point at the rear.
  2. Check the width at the widest point.
  3. Measure the height, especially for an SUV or crossover.
  4. Allow for any rear wing, spoiler, aerial, roof rack or roof bars.
  5. If the vehicle falls between two sizes, ask us for advice before ordering.

Frequently asked questions

Can a Stretch™ cover be used outdoors?

No. Stretch™ covers are designed for indoor use on a clean, dry car.

What should I do if my car falls between two sizes?

Do not choose from length alone. Check width, height and equipment, then contact us if you are unsure.

Is a cover custom-made for my model?

No. The products are offered by size range. Stretch™ fabric helps follow the vehicle’s lines, but the cover is not custom-made.

Which product suits a car used every day?

In a garage or private lock-up, a car reveal cover is quick to place and remove. Outdoors, a half cover or windscreen protector can provide frequent partial protection.

Can I request an exchange if the size does not fit?

A return or exchange can be requested within 30 days in accordance with our returns policy.
