According to the product specialist

Pros
The Amber II bike carrier is easy to mount.
Thanks to the tilting mechanism you can still reach the tailgate after mounting the carrier.
Bikes are easy to place onto the carrier.
The SlideLock system ensures that the box is properly closed and automatically locked.
The cargo box offers a generous 260 litre volume, allowing you to store a lot of luggage without burdening the roof of your car.
Two sturdy wheels and an ergonomic handle make transporting the box extremely comfortable.
Thanks to the tilt function of the car bike rack, the trunk always remains accessible, even when the box is mounted.
If used with the Thule Epos 3 or Thule Easyfold 3 bike carrier, the Santu also allows for placement of an additional bike.
An improved securing mechanism makes fitting the carrier to your tow bar easy and safe.
Bicycles on the carrier are protected against theft, which is reassuring when going for a break.
The collapsible brace makes it possible to store the Thule Velocompact 927 in a very small space.
The Thule VeloCompact 927 bike carrier is fitted with theft protection.
If you select the 4th bike adapter, then the Thule Velocompact 927 is suitable to carry 4 bikes.
Cons
The rear fog light and reversing light only work with a 13-pin plug connector.
Not suitable for e-bikes.
Weighing 14.2 kg, the box is relatively heavy to lift for a single person.
Please note: Only compatible with Thule EasyFold 3, Thule Epos (both Epos 2 and Epos 3), and Thule EasyFold XT (both XT 2 and XT 3; both require an adapter) bike racks.
This bike carrier has a 7-pin connector, meaning you might need an adapter in some cases.
