Best Car Covers For 2022

The waterproof 18-layer iCarCover offers all-weather protection from rain, snow, and light hail. Its chemical-free UV-blocking technology prevents paint damage and fading by keeping your vehicle cool while parked in the hot sun. The bottom layer is a non-abrasive, thick, soft cotton lining incorporating a paint-pampering layer strip which leaves the finish looking fresh and glossy. Three heavy-duty nylon straps with buckles may take a little finagling, but once secured, it keeps the vehicle covered even on the windiest of days. 

Also suitable for indoor use, iCarCover offers sizes from 155” up to 235” long to fit almost any vehicle, whether you’re protecting a coupe, convertible, sedan, SUV, wagon or pickup truck. The purchase includes a zippered storage bag, two antenna patches, and an impressive 7-year warranty. 

Coverking’s most popular all-around car cover, the Moda Triguard, consists of three layers of UV treated polypropylene material for maximum breathability. Being waterproof, it repels moisture from the outside while allowing condensation stuck inside the cover to escape, which eliminates the risk of mold and mildew growth, or rust formation in the long term. Choose the best size for your vehicle for an easy snug fit. This cover best fits sedans from 13.1 to 22 feet long, which is everything from a Hyundai Accent to a 1970s Cadillac limo. The elastic bottom hem secures the cover to the car with a loving hug.  Non-scratch grommets along the bottom allow for additional tie-downs if necessary. 

It’s listed as being suitable for indoor or outdoor use, but is reported to only last up to a year outdoors depending on the conditions of your specific location. However, the purchase does include a one-year warranty that covers product failure or workmanship defects.

For the car lover that takes no chances, the CarCapsule is like storing your vehicle in a bubble, in the most literal sense. It keeps rodents out, and the system’s evaporative storage technology performs air changes up to 4 times an hour. That way, the temperature remains consistent, which eliminates condensation. 

The 16-foot long CarCapsule can fully inflate in as little as 6-minutes. However, we should note that it can be a challenge to line up the structure on top of the base mat without the help of a second person. The base mat is impervious to oil, gas and antifreeze and is mildew, abrasion and flame resistant. The surrounding reinforced PVC fabric is strong enough to protect against accidental damage from rolling or falling objects like lawn maintenance tools. This particular example is for indoor use only and works great for those who work on messy projects in the shop, but still use the space to store cars. The company offers different sizes to fit your needs, and you can also opt for their heavy-duty outdoor version, though it comes at a very steep price.

Available for sedans, hatchbacks, SUVs and trucks, the OxGord Signature car cover offers all-season protection against UV rays, rain, snow, bird droppings, pollutants, dust and debris. The high-density 210T material is firm and waterproof, yet still lightweight and allows for breathability. The cover’s soft inner lining prevents it from scratching the vehicle’s finish, and eight rim tie straps teamed with a central adjustable strap and an elastic hem keep the cover secure during windy days. Some buyers report, however, that the cover did not hold up to high winds in their area. 

It’s easy to find the front vs. the rear of the cover without searching for tags hidden under the lining because of the integrated mirror pockets. Some buyers reported odd fitment caused by the mirror pocket placement, but this complaint varies and likely has to do with measuring your car and choosing the proper fit. The cover’s exterior is equipped with reflective safety lines in case you have to park your car in a precarious spot overnight.
