A definite maybe.. It does depend on the width of the car. I have a 9-5 wagon and I "think" I could get 4 bikes on the roof... You would mount them facing opposite directions so the handlebars wouldn't hit. Go and see a specialist and take the bikes with you (if possible!) and let them try it out. A rear mounted version would work too and I have seen them with four holders. Just sticks a fair way out.
