Will the Hollywood Racks Destination Bike Rack for 2 Bikes Work for an E-Bike on a 2021 Prius Prime?

Question:

Hi: I have one e-bike Aventon 500 and one regular bike. Would HLY94FR work with a 2021 Toyota Prius Prime. If we have two Aventon 500 bikes, will it work? Thanks for your help.

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 Bikes # HLY74FR has an 80 pound capacity per bike and has the same hitch compatibility as the Destination (1-1/4 inch class II and 2 inch hitches). I confirmed with Hollywood Racks that the Sport Rider SE will fit a 2021 Toyota Prius Prime if the end of the bumper measures less than 16 inches from the distance from center of hitch pin. In addition, the sport rider accommodates standard fat tires up to five inches.
