Will EcoHitch for 2012 Toyota Prius Do Well To Carry 65 lb E-Bikes
Question:
Will this fit a 2012 Prius hatchback and hold 2 ebikes at 65lbs each?
asked by: Fred
Expert Reply:
The EcoHitch part # 306-X7178 that you referenced is a confirmed fit for your 2012 Toyota Prius and would work well to carry your two 65 lb e-bikes with an e-bike rack like the Thule EasyFold XT part # TH903202 which is the best choice for an e-bike rack. It has the capacity needed, fits the hitch you are interested in, can tilt down when needed, and also comes with a ramp setup to make loading and unloading bikes as easy as possible.
I attached an install video for the hitch as well as a review video for the bike rack as well.
