Recommended Way to Carry E-Bikes with 2005 Toyota Prius
Question:
I have a 2005 Toyota Prius AND a 50 lbs electric bike. Can you recommend a trunk mount rack? Thank you.

Expert Reply:
We have a great way to carry 50 lb e-bikes with your 2005 Toyota Prius but none of the trunk mounted bike racks have the capacity for an e-bike as the highest capacity trunk racks are rated for 35 lbs per bike. So instead you'd want the Thule EasyFold XT # TH903202 which is a hitch mounted bike rack.
Then for your 2005 Prius you'd want the hitch # 24808 and you'd be set.
