I have a great hitch for you!
It's the Draw-Tite Class I, part # 24956. This has a 1-1/4" receiver with a maximum towing capacity of 2000 pounds and a maximum tongue weight of 200 pounds. I've linked to a video installation of this hitch, and you will see in the video that it has a hitch pin hole recessed far enough to accommodate the Helium Pro.
The Helium Pro, part # TH9042PRO, fits a 1-1/4" receiver like the Draw-Tite by design. The piece used to adapt it to 2" receivers is a separate... view full answer...
As no manufacturer has a wiring kit that has been identified to work with your 2020 Chevrolet Bolt, the only product I would recommend for you is the ZCI Circuit Protected Vehicle Wiring Harness # 119250KIT. This product uses sensors to detect when power travels through the wiring in the harness on your Bolt. The wiring in current vehicles is much more delicate and the computers can interpret additional voltage draw as a fault and cause the vehicle to not operate properly so I do not recommend... view full answer...
I would be happy to help you. The EcoHitch Hidden Trailer Hitch Receiver - Custom Fit - 2" item # 306-X7359 is custom fit and bolts directly to your 2020 Chevrolet Bolt EV with included hardware. It does not require any drilling or welding. I have linked an installation video below. This hitch has a maximum gross trailer weight of 2,000 lbs and a maximum tongue weight of 300 lbs. You will want to verify with your owners manual what your Bolts towing capacity is.

There is indeed a trailer hitch receiver that fits your 2022 Chevy Bolt EV, with the best option being one from EcoHitch:
- EcoHitch Hidden Trailer Hitch Receiver # 306-X7359
This is the best option because it is the only hitch for this vehicle which has a 2 inch receiver, which allows you to carry any class of bike rack or cargo carrier; the other hitches that fit a '22 Bolt EV are 1-1/4 inch, Class I hitches, and those limit you to a Class I-compatible accessory.

The Thule EasyFold XT bike rack part # TH903202 that you referenced would easily fit in the EcoHitch 2 inch hitch part # 306-X7359 that fits your 2017 Chevy Bolt EV as the pin distance is right at 2-1/2 inches from face of hitch opening. view full answer...
For your 2017 Chevy Bolt you'll need to switch over to the Yakima roof rack system as Thule doesn't have a fit kit for your vehicle. I really like the Yakima JetStream crossbars since they have the aero-style design and a rubber strip in the top channel that you don't have to trim to install track-mount accessories. For your application you'll need the following parts:
50" JetStream Crossbars - # Y00425
BaseLine Towers - # Y28TR
BaseClips - # Y06123 and # Y06181
Lock Core Kit - # Y07204... view full answer...
It is unlikely that the hatch on your 2021 Chevrolet Bolt EV will be able to open with the Thule Helium Pro 2 Bike Rack - 1-1/4" and 2" Hitches - Tilting - Aluminum # TH9042PRO installed in the Draw-Tite # 24956 without tilting or removing the bike rack. This will be the same for any of the trailer hitch receivers for your vehicle.
The # TH9042PRO does tilt but requires the bikes to be removed from the rack, and does allow most rear hatches to open though we have not had a chance to try... view full answer...
Yes, the Draw-Tite Sportframe Trailer Hitch Receiver # DT47GR is a great option for carrying a bike rack with your 2023 Chevy Bolt EV - you just have to make sure the bike rack is rated for use on a Class I hitch receiver, and you don't load more than 2 on the rack. Class I receivers are weaker which is why those limitations are set in place by all of the hitch manufacturers.
If you don't already have a bike rack I recommend checking out the Kuat Transfer V2 Bike Rack # KU74FR because... view full answer...

This is a universal wiring harness that uses clamps and a power lead to your battery so as to avoid damaging any of your OEM wiring - which is perfect for newer vehicles that have a lot of sensors and chips on them.

The correct wiring harness for your 2022 Chevy Bolt EV will need to be a splice-in wiring kit as there no plug-in kits

For your EV the correct harness is part # 119250KIT. view full answer...
The EcoHitch Hidden Trailer Hitch Receiver # 306-X7359 provides a 2" receiver and is a confirmed fit for the 2017 Chevrolet Bolt EV. With a 2" receiver, you have a wider selection of bike carriers for your fendered ebike. This hitch is approved for a tongue weight of up to 300 lbs and it weighs about 30 lbs plus one bike at 45 lbs, you should be fine as far as the hitch capacity is concerned. I would also check the owners manual or a Chevy dealer first as well to confirm the vehicle... view full answer...
For your 2017 Chevrolet Bolt EV, I recommend the Thule Evo WingBar System which is composed of part # TH711420, part # TH480R, and part # THKIT1857. This system has aero crossbars which will work to reduce wind noise and drag. It also has t-slots which will allow for the use of most aftermarket t-slot accessories. view full answer...
We have a universal style of trailer wiring harness that is a fit for your 2017 Chevy Bolt EV that doesn't require any splicing.

Yes, the Custom Fit Kit # RR32SV is the fit kit you need for the Legs for the Rhino-Rack Aero Crossbars # RRRCL4 and the Rhino-Rack Vortex Aero Crossbars - Aluminum - Black - 46" Long # RRVA118B-2. All of these parts will fit your 2021 Chevy Bolt with flush factory rails. view full answer...
The Draw-Tite Sportframe Trailer Hitch Receiver part # 24956 for your 2017 Chevrolet Bolt EV does indeed have a 200 lb max tongue weight rating however, the hitch is almost always rated for more weight than the vehicle can handle. In addition to weight capacity, the maximum number of bikes that can be loaded on a Class I hitch is 2 and since they only make a Class I hitch for your vehicle, you will be limited to 2 bikes. The reason for the 2 bike maximum has more to do with leverage than... view full answer...
The trailer hitch options for a 2020 Chevrolet Bolt EV all require minor trimming of an underbody fascia panel. That said, this won't even be visible from outside the vehicle. The Curt Trailer Hitch Receiver part # C11457 however does require the least amount of trimming so this is what I recommend.

The hitch you purchased from us last year for your 2018 Chevrolet Bolt EV is the Draw-Tite Class I hitch # 24956. Class I hitches are a light-duty type that can handle the load of only 2-bikes, so most likely the rack you have is not a Class I-rated model but is instead a Class II and that is why it will not fit properly in the hitch.
In this hitch you must use a Class I-compatible rack of no more than 2-bike capacity like those shown on the linked page. The combined weight of the rack... view full answer...
The installed weight of the Draw-Tite is 25 lbs, while the EcoHitch weight is 32 lbs. Both of these hitches do fit your 2020 Chevy Bolt EV, but between the two the best option is the EcoHitch, which is the following part number:
- EcoHitch Hidden Trailer Hitch Receiver # 306-X7359
The reason the EcoHitch # 306-X7359 is the best for your Bolt EV is because it has a 2" receiver, compared to the 1-1/4" receiver of the Draw-Tite # 24956; the Draw-Tite is also a Class I hitch. Additionally,... view full answer...
As the only changes for the 2023 Chevrolet Bolt EV is a new paint color was added and the price changes from the 2022 model year there is no reason you will not be able to use the EcoHitch Hidden Trailer Hitch Receiver # 306-X7359 on your vehicle. This receiver uses a 2" opening and is rated for up to 300lbs of tongue weight and 2,000lbs trailer towing. Be sure to verify the limits from Chevrolet for your Bolt and do not exceed the lower of these 2 sets of numbers. view full answer...
