How Can I Carry my Two E-Bikes with my 2017 Infinity QX50

Question:

What is the best trunk mount bike rack for an Infinity 2017 QX50. We have 2 50lb step thru e-bjkes. Thank you for your help.

I have a solution for you but there are no trunk mounted bike racks that can accommodate bikes of that weight for your 2017 Infinity QX50. For most E-Bikes the best solution is in a hitch mounted rack. Some of these offer much higher capacity than the trunk mount options.

For instance one I really like is the Hollywood Racks Sport Rider SE Bike Rack for 2 Electric Bikes part # HLY74FR. This works with 2" hitches and can accommodate bike up to 80 lbs. each. With the frame hook design it will also work well with step through frames unless they are extremely low then using the Swagman Deluxe Bike Frame Adapter Bar part # 64005 will solve the issue.

Most Infinity QX50 models came from the factory with a hitch if yours did not we will have to explore a roof mounted option.
