Question:
Would this box fit a 2016 Range Rover HSE and specifically, would this box and cross beams accommodate the panoramic sunroof operation of this vehicle? Would this box be compatible with this vehicle if the sunroof operation is not a consideration? Same question for the Thule Vector Alpine Roof Cargo Box would this box be compatible with the 2016 Range Rover HSE if the sunroof operation is not a consideration? Just trying to decide the best box for this vehicle any other recommendation you can pass along would be greatly appreciated. Thanks,

The Thule Motion XT Rooftop Cargo Box part # TH6297T and Thule Vector Alpine Rooftop Cargo Box part # TH613500 will both fit a 2016 Land Rover Range Rover HSE and you will have no problems opening the rear hatch with either cargo box installed. In regards to a glass roof (panoramic/sun or moon) there should not be any direct interference or compatibility issues. However, it is a standard rule with all roof rack accessory manufactures to not open the roof with any sort of roof mounted accessory installed such as a cargo box due to the chance of interference as well as the associated wind noise.
That said, you really wouldn't want to open the glass roof with a cargo box installed anyhow but there will be no issues with the glass roof in general.
