Wiring harnesses that connect to the vehicle battery for power, like the Curt T-Connector # C56371 for your 2020 Toyota Prius Prime, are designed to protect your OEM vehicle wiring so they are built around using the battery to power the lights.
On a system like this you essentially won't have any power to your trailer lighting no matter how small the amount of draw. The parts that tee in behind your tail lights are basically like triggers that tell the converter box when to send the power.... view full answer...
I do recommend contacting Toyota to see if your 2018 Toyota Prius Prime can be towed on a dolly, though in regards to it being low-profile, there is a guideline by Demco with some measurements you will need to take to ensure it will work.
I have added a cut out from the linked instruction manual, and as you can see, there is a pretty simple formula that you'll use to determine proper clearance, and this is for both the Demco Kar Kaddy X Tow Dolly # DM9713093 and the Demco Kar Kaddy SS... view full answer...
For a trailer hitch receiver that fits your 2017 Toyota Prius Prime, I would go with the EcoHitch Stealth Trailer Hitch Receiver - Custom Fit - 2" # 306-X7369. This is a 2" receiver which can typically accommodate more accessories than a typical 1-1/4" receiver. Your Hollywood Racks Sport Rider Bike Rack for 1 Recumbent Delta or 1 Trike would fit this receiver without an issue.
The trailer hitch receiver offers a simple bolt-in installation process and requires no drilling. view full answer...
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.
I have attached a picture of this hitch installed on a customers 2021 Prius Prime... view full answer...
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...
The hitch lock that you need for the Kuat Beta - 1-1/4" # B202-114 is the Hitch Lock for Kuat Bike Racks - 1-1/4" Hitches # HL1. This is designed to work especially with the Beta's 1-1/4" shank. For protection of the bikes, I recommend using the etrailer Cable Lock # e98891 and looping it through your bikes and wrapping it around the rack. 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...
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.
If you can tell me what you will be using the trailer hitch for I would be glad to offer some additional recommendations... view full answer...
You will want to use the new hardware that came with your Curt Trailer Hitch Receiver # C11473. The included hardware does not require the OEM washers. Curt determined that the OEM bolts and washers were not long enough to engage all of the threads on the bumper, so they have included new flange bolts that won't require the washers. view full answer...
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 nice thing about the Kuat Sherpa 2 # SH12G is it has no center mast. So there will be less visual interference with your rear window. It will all come down to the bikes. The bikes are going to sit around 4 inches higher than your hitch receiver so you can get an idea of how much they will block your view if you hold your bike up 4 inches higher than your hitch receiver.
I've included a picture of the Sherpa with bikes loaded on a smaller suv to give you an idea. The bikes are rather... view full answer...
As of today 4/15/2024 Curt does not have a trailer hitch receiver for your 2024 Toyota Prius Prime. It does appear the EcoHitch # EH76QR is the only custom fit receiver available for your vehicle at this time.
If you are needing a 4-way you would need to use a Universal Harness # C59496 as there is no one with a custom fit harness yet. view full answer...
The frame cradles on the Thule Camber part # TH9058 do fit pretty tight to the arms of the rack but they are designed to be twisted and moved to best accommodate the bikes.
They are designed to fit tightly so that they don't move while your bike is loaded. view full answer...
We do offer a wide selection of roof bike racks that should work great with the Toyota crossbars on your 2017 Toyota Prius Prime. Based on my research, it looks like the Toyota bars for your vehicle are aero style design and you will just want to make sure that the bike rack you choose will fit over their dimensions and crossbar spread.
I recommend looking at the Rhino-Rack Hybrid Roof Bike Rack # RRRBC050. This is a wheel mount carrier that will let you transport one bike without having... view full answer...
While the EcoHitch part # 306-X7369 is a 2 inch hitch, it does have lower weight capacities more associated with 1-1/4 inch hitches of 2,000 lbs trailer and 300 lbs tongue weight, since this hitch is designed to fit a lower capacity tow vehicle, the Prius Prime, it has the lower towing capacity. The larger hitch size does give you more options for hitch accessories since 2 inch hitch accessories are the most popular. view full answer...
Starting with the trailer hitch, I recommend the Draw-Tite Class I Sport Frame Receiver Hitch # 24966. This Class I hitch is confirmed to fit your Prius Prime and features a 1-1/4 inch receiver opening and a 200 pound tongue weight capacity. I recommend this model over the Curt alternative that is also confirmed to fit your vehicle because unlike Curt, Draw-Tite does not require the use of additional stabilizing straps when using bike racks and cargo carriers. These straps can be a bit... 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...
The Hollywood Racks Destination Bike Rack for 2 Bikes # HLY94FR will fit a 2021 Toyota Prius Prime if the end of the bumper measures less than 9-1/4 inches from the distance from center of hitch pin.
As far as the weight, the Destination has a maximum per bike weight capacity of 35 pounds, so it is not a good option for you (since the Aventon 500 weighs 49 pounds).. If at least one Aventon 500 e-bike weighs more than 39 pounds, the Hollywood Racks Sport Rider SE Bike Rack for 2 Electric... view full answer...
You will want a roof rack mounted bike rack for your 2021 Prius Prime. The Yakima FrontLoader # Y02103 is a great option for you if you want something relatively quick and easy to use.
The FrontLoader # Y02103 is a wheel mount bike carrier which means it will carry your bike as is without having to take the wheels off. Some like this option so that they don't have to deal with storing their wheel separately in their trunk or back seats. I recommend the FrontLoader over the very similar... view full answer...
