When we installed Draw-Tite trailer hitch # 24966 on a 2017 Toyota Prius Prime we measured a distance of 7 inches from the center of the hitch pin hole back to the end of the rear bumper. I have linked a video showing the installation and that measurement for you.
The Thule bike rack you are looking at would need to have a clearance measurement (center of hitch pin hole to closest part of rack) that is greater than 7 inches in order for the rack to clear the rear of the vehicle.

The best hitch for your 2019 Toyota Prius Prime is going to be the EcoHitch Stealth Trailer Hitch Receiver item # 306-X7369. This hitch is custom fit and bolts directly to your Prius with included hardware. This hitch is the only one available that will match your Prius' 300 lbs tongue weight capacity and give you the strength you will need to carry two e-bikes and the bike rack. It is also the only available option we have that will work with the Swagman E-Spec Bike Rack for 2 Electric... view full answer...

The correct hub for a BT8 spindle will use L44643 inner and out bearings like what we find with the Trailer Idler Hub Assembly for 2,000-lb Axles # AKIHUB-440-2-1K. I double checked with this part to make sure it's accurate.

Your question references the The Thule UpRide but it has the part number for the Thule TopRide, so I addressed both bike roof racks in my answer. The Thule TopRide Roof Bike Rack for 1 Bike - Fork Mount, part # TH75JV and the Thule UpRide Roof Bike Rack - Wheel Mount - Clamp On or Channel Mount - Aluminum, part # TH599000, will both fit the factory roof rack on your 2019 Prius Prime.
The Thule TopRide is a fork mounted rack that works with standard quick release wheels and 15mm thru axles.... view full answer...
As long as the weight of the bike doesn't exceed the capacity of the bike rack and the combined weight of the rack and bike doesn't exceed the tongue weight capacity of the hitch, and the rack you use is compatible with a Class I hitch, you can absolutely carry an e-bike using either the Draw-Tite # 24966 or the Curt # C11473. If I had to choose between the two, I'd choose the US made Curt # C11473.
If you only need to carry 1 bike, the 35 lb RockyMounts Monorail # RKY10007 would be a... view full answer...
I contacted Draw-Tite about the trailer hitch receiver # 24966. They haven't had the chance to test it on a 2018 Toyota Prius Prime yet but they believe it'll carry over. This is only the second year of the current generation of the Prius Prime so it's unlikely Toyota has made enough changes to make the hitch not fit. Also, the Curt hitch for the 2017, part # C11473, is confirmed by Curt to fit the 2018 and it installs in the same fashion as the Draw-Tite.
So unfortunately I can't confirm... view full answer...
The only hitch with a 2 inch opening that fits your 2020 Toyota Prius Prime is the EcoHitch part # 306-X7369. Most hitch companies only offer 1-1/4 inch hitches for lighter duty vehicles like your Prius but EcoHitch makes all of their hitches 2 inch which is why they have a fit.
This will work great with your Kuat NV 2.0 part # NV22G. We don't recommend using this with a hitch extender since the hitch is lower capacity and the extenders/risers cut the capacity of the hitch by 50 percent. view full answer...
I do have a trailer hitch receiver that is a confirmed fit for your 2018 Toyota Prius Prime but Draw-Tite has yet to as of (April 2018) carry over the Draw-Tite Sportframe Trailer Hitch Receiver part # 24966 for the 2018 model year. Curt on the other hand has carried over the Curt Trailer Hitch Receiver part # C11473 as being a confirmed fit for your 2018 Prime. Although it is likely that the Draw-Tite hitch will fit the 2018 model year, this has not yet to be confirmed by the manufacturer.... view full answer...
While there are bike racks that will work for your 2021 Toyota Prius Prime with factory crossbars, the Thule Big Mouth is only a fit for square bars, and there isn't an adapter that will allow it to fit on factory bars. So while I realize this isn't the news you were looking for, the only option available to transport your bike on that rack is with a new bike rack.
There are a pair of options I recommend, and they have different price points so you can determine the right one for you:

Any trusted mechanic should be able to install most hitches, but because the hitches available for the 2022 Prius Prime would require removing the rear bumper cover and fascia, I'd want to choose someone who's experienced in removing body panels without damaging them. For an install of this sort, I typically recommend a body shop, as they remove bumper covers all the time without incident.
If you installed a Class I hitch like the Curt # C11473, you could use an adapter like # HTAD for... view full answer...
Thanks so much for your order! It looks like you purchased the EcoHitch Stealth Trailer Hitch Receiver - Custom Fit - 2" # 306-X7369. With this particular hitch, we unfortunately do not have the measurements available for the distance of the center of the hitch pinhole to the outside face of the rear bumper of a 2017 model Toyota Prius Prime. With that being said, the Thule T2 Classic # TH9045 will most likely interfere with your rear bumper (when folded up). This is because the measurement... view full answer...
The Draw-Tite Sportframe Trailer Hitch Receiver part # 24966 is a confirmed fit for your 2017 Toyota Prius Prime and will work well for you. The Draw-Tite Sportframe is a Class I hitch with a 1-1/4" receiver tube opening. In order to keep dirt and debris from getting inside the receiver tube opening, I recommend using the Rubber Hitch Cover part # 22281 while not in use.

The only available 2" trailer hitch for a 2017 Toyota Prius Prime is the EcoHitch Stealth Trailer Hitch Receiver part # 306-X7369 which is a custom fit with no drilling required. This hitch also has a completely hidden design so you won't even know the hitch is installed with the receiver tube removed. view full answer...
The correct EcoHitch for your 2019 Prius Prime is the EcoHitch Stealth Trailer Hitch item # 306-X7369. This hitch is custom fit and bolts to your Prius with included hardware. It also has a 2" receiver.
The item # EH53VR hitch you were looking at fits the standard Toyota Prius not the prime model.

The Curt Trailer Hitch Receiver # C11473 is confirmed to fit your 2021 Toyota Prius Prime. I spoke with Curt and they verified that this hitch will fit the Prius Prime. They said to make sure the tabs on the end of the bumper beam assembly are flattened so they are flush as stated in the manual. I would recommend reviewing the installation instructions to ensure that everything else is correctly in place.

We do have one option for a trailer hitch that fits your 2018 Toyota Prius Prime that has a 2 inch receiver so you can use a 3-bike rack, which is from EcoHitch:
- EcoHitch Stealth Trailer Hitch Receiver # 306-X7369
This hitch fits your Prius Prime and is the only option with a 2 inch receiver; every other hitch is a Class I hitch with a 1-1/4 inch receiver and is only capable of carrying a 2-bike rack, so the EcoHitch is going to be perfect for your needs.
For a 3-bike rack, since... view full answer...
Yakima does not utilize the Q Clips and Towers for the 2016 Toyota Prius Prime.
Instead, they utilize the BaseClips, part # Y06169 and # Y06123, for the BaseLine Towers, part # Y28TR.
You can see a combination of these parts with some JetStream Crossbars, part # Y00425, at the link below. If you already have Yakima crossbars, then the is no worry as the BaseLine Towers are designed to work with Yakima's entire range of crossbars. view full answer...
When fitting the Draw-Tite Sportframe Trailer Hitch Receiver # 24966 on the 2017 Toyota Prius Prime, there is 12" inches from the ground to the top of the hitch and 7" from the center of the hitch pin hole to the rear most part of the back bumper.
The Kuat Sherpa # SH12G and # SH12P has a distance from the center of hitch pin hole to the closest part of carrier when folded up of 7-1/2". I agree that it will have an issue clearing the bumper when the rack is folded up. 1/2" is cutting... view full answer...
The Lippert Components High-Speed Power Stabilizer Jack - White Switch Kit - 30" Lift # LC369774 is a great option for your 2018 Grand Design Reflection 230RL as long as the mounting dimensions of 68-11/16" from center to center line up with your frame. The undermounted spare tire will need to be avoided by the center crossbar as well. If you need more height you can use the Lippert Components Electric RV Stabilizer Jack Double Spacer - Weld On - 2" # LC266030.
