Expert Answers about Lexus RX 450h


  • Single Bike Bike Rack For A 70lb Electric Bike
  • I recommend the Hollywood Racks Sport Rider SE Bike Rack for 2 Electric Bikes - 2" Hitches - Frame Mount Item # HLY84FR since we do not offer a single bike bike rack that will support that weight. This rack has a weight capacity of 80lbs per bike, has a tilt away feature, fold feature, and comes with a hitch lock to secure the bike rack to the receiver on the vehicle.

  • Recommended 2 Inch Hitch for a 2021 Lexus RX 450h
  • I have a solution for you but the Curt Trailer Hitch Receiver item # 13445 does not fit the 2021 Lexus RX 450h. The only hitch available for the 2021 RX 450h is the Curt Hitch Receiver item # C73DR. This hitch is custom fit and bolts directly to your RX 450h with included hardware. It does not require any drilling. If you are planning on towing you will also need a wiring harness item # 119250KIT and a ball mount kit item # C45534.

  • Rooftop Cargo Basket for 2013 Lexus RX 450h
  • I checked with Thule and they do not show direct cargo basket fits for factory bars on your 2013 Lexus RX 450h so an aftermarket square bar rack will be a good way to go to ensure a basket such as their Canyon # TH859XT will fit well on your car. I suggest the Curt Roof Rack # C181118 that will mount to your raised roof side rails with a 32-inch bar spread; this bar spacing is compatible with both the Canyon and Trail baskets. On thing to keep in mind is that your RX 450h has a finite...

  • Trailer Wiring Harness to Fit 2017 Lexus RX 450h
  • The Curt # 56083 is confirmed to fit the 2016 Lexus RX 450h but unfortunately not the 2017. For your 2017 you'll need Curt # C59236. This harness has a powered converter that connects to the battery to protect your vehicle's wiring. It installs using quick-splice connectors. I've attached an install video on a BMW that you can look at. The install process will be fairly similar even though it's a different vehicle. If you don't already have a trailer hitch, the Curt # C13282 is a...

  • Will This Curt Hitch Receiver Class III, Part # C13282, Fit My 2020 Lexus RX 450h
  • The Curt Trailer Hitch Receiver - Custom Fit - Class III - 2", part # C13282, is compatible with your 2020 Lexus RX 450H. I did some research and your vehicle has a maximum tongue weight of 400 lbs. This means your Yakima EXO system and the items you are carrying cannot exceed 400 lbs. If you install the Yakima EXO Swing Away 2 Bike Rack w/ Enclosed Cargo Carrier - 2" Hitches, part # Y34ZR, you can only carry an additional 234 lbs, since this system weighs 166 lbs. I have included a product...

  • Compatibility of Curt Wiring Harness 56083 on a 2016 Lexus RX 450h without the Tow Package
  • I can help you figure out if the Curt # 56083 will work for your 2016 Lexus RX 450h. If you do not have the tow package on your Lexus it is unlikely that you will have the plug for the wiring harness already run for you. I would definitely check, it will probably be towards the back of the rear bumper and may be under a panel, you can also call a local Lexus dealer and ask them if your car is equipped with the plug or not. If you do have the plug the # 56083 will work for you. If you...

  • Will Rola Swinging Enclosed Cargo Carrier 59109 Fit a 2010 Lexus RX 450h
  • It looks like the trailer hitches for the 2010 Lexus RX 45oh are nearly flush with the rear bumper meaning there is enough clearance for the Rola Swinging Enclosed Cargo Carrier for 2" Trailer Hitch # 59109. This carrier fits Class III or IV, 2-inch trailer hitches. All the hitches for your vehicle are 2-inch hitches so it is compatible in this regard as well. The carrier itself weighs about 110 pounds or so and has a 250-pound capacity. If loaded to the maximum capacity the combined weight...

  • Roof Rack Fit for 2019 Lexus RX 450h with Panoramic Roof
  • The Thule roof rack will fit your 2019 Lexus RX 450h with a panoramic roof although you are correct that Yakima does not have a roof rack which will fit. Thule only notes that you should not open, vent or retract the roof with the roof rack on. My recommendation is to use the Thule roof rack consisting of # TH711400 or black # TH711420, # TH710601, and # TH186044 along with # TH450400 locks. Additionally, your Whispbar WB-300 ski and snowboard rack will fit this roof rack; the Whispbar...

  • Fit of Hollywood Racks # HRF2 Over The Top Trunk Mounted Bike Rack on 2015 Volvo V60
  • The Hollywood Racks # HRF2 Over The Top Trunk Mounted Bike Rack is indeed compatible with your 2015 Volvo V60 with a spoiler. I've confirmed this with Hollywood Racks. If you'll be transporting women's bikes or bikes with sharply-angled top tubes, you might also consider a frame adapter bar like part # 64005. The bar spans the distance between the handlebar gooseneck and the seat post, which provides a secondary attachment point for the bike rack. This allows the bike to be carried level,...

  • Can the Prodigy RF Trailer Brake Controller be Used with a 2011 Lexus RX 450h Hybrid
  • The Prodigy RF brake controller # TK94FR requires the 12 volt circuit be active in order for it to work. If your 2011 Lexus RX 450h hybrid model also has a regular vehicle battery and not just the large hybrid battery system then what you can do is run a wire to the 12 volt circuit from the vehicle battery via a 40 amp circuit breaker # PK54540. For wire you can use # 12-1-1. Change the number in the quantity box to the total length of wire you think you will need in feet. I recommend...

  • Recommended Tire Chains for 255/55r20 Tires on 2017 Lexus RX 450h F-Sport
  • The best source for clarification on whether or not you should use chains on your 2017 Lexus RX 450h F-Sport is going to be the owner's manual. I was not able to locate a copy online but it's most likely that if you are able to use chains, you'll need Class S compatible chains. For those I recommend using the Konig Premium Self-Tensioning Snow Tire Chains - Diamond Pattern - D Link - K-Summit XXL - Size K67 # TH2004565767 because they're easy to put on and the low profile design ensures...

  • Hitch Compatibility & Recommendations For Lexus RX450H
  • We do carry a hitch that should be compatible with the 2021 Lexus RX450H, the Curt # C13282. This hitch is already confirmed to fit the RX450H from model years 2016-2020. While the Curt C13282 has not yet been confirmed by the manufacturer to fit 2021 models of the RX450H, there has been no considerable change by Lexus in the design of the vehicle's frame or the rear fascia, therefore it is likely that the holes of the hitch will still match up and it should fit. I spoke with a representative...

  • Fit of Kuat Sherpa 2.0 Bike Rack on 2015 Lexus RX450h
  • The answer to your question will depend on how far under the rear of the vehicle the hitch is recessed. You can determine this by measuring the distance between the center of the hitch pin hole and the furthest rearward point of the back bumper. The Kuat Sherpa 2.0 can be used on your vehicle as long as this distance isn't greater than 7-1/2 inches. When we installed all three of the available hitches on a RX450, we found that the receiver was recessed under the vehicle by 5 inches. This...
