2021 Jeep Renegade

Originally I was looking to put a hitch on my 2021 jeep renegade sport for a hitch mount bike rack, after seeing that I would either have to remove seam sealer and drill holes in my rear subframe (this is not a good option living in the rust belt), or remove my entire back bumper off and cut holes in it for the factory style hitch, and still have a rack that is illegal and blocks my license plate/brake lights turn signals I decided to look at different options. A roof rack is a little too high to lift a bike on comfortably. This thule outway platform 2 takes about 10 minutes to install correctly, and is solid and holds the bike securely, and the rack locks to the vehicle, and also the bikes lock to the rack no extra purchases required (comes with 2 keys and plastic spoiler supports). I have driven 80mph over potholes and bumps, also on extreme hills and has held securely.

Great product. Packaging came damaged but product looked ok.

Ordered for a 2024 Honda Accord Hybrid and it fits perfectly. Carrier feels solid and was easy to put together and mount on vehicle.



by:

The rack is great just what I was looking for.
The only issue I see is the straps are plastic so after using them for a little bit they broke. I had to order replacements. Let’s see how much time they last!



by:

Great bike rack. The cable and hook system is extremely strong and tight and being bike to open the trunk with the rack attached (but without bike) is a godsend for packing. Assembly is somewhat difficult due to Thule’s IKEA-style picture instructions. Watching the video is essential. Once assembled, however, attaching and locking the rack in place is pretty simple. Be sure to wash and dry hooks, bumpers, and car surfaces to avoid scratches!



by:

Best bike rack ever



by:

The rear hatch mounted rack fit my X3 just as your website indicated - the technician who described how this rack would fit. I'm impressed with how well it is designed to be stable and to not impact the plastic spoiler above the rear window.

  • Trunk and Hitch Mounted Bike Rack Options for a 2012 Kia Optima
    The Thule OutWay bike racks, # TH45JV, # TH56BV, and # TH65JV are excellent bike racks with many great features, but they are a little pricey. Another bike rack that you may be interested in from Thule is the Archway 3 Bike Carrier, # TH9010XT. This bike rack uses 4 rubber pads that rest on your vehicle to prevent scratching or damage to your vehicle. This bike rack will fit on your 2012 Kia Optima and gives extra room underneath to accommodate for a factory spoiler. You may also want...

  • Trunk Mount Hanging Rack or Platform Rack For 2011 Honda Accord
    I can help you find a bike rack for your 2011 Honda Accord. With either a trunk mounted hanging rack or trunk mounted platform rack most of the weight is on the trunk because that's where the bike rack attaches. However, the racks do come with support straps that attach to the top of the vehicle as well so that helps with support. To carry 3 bikes on the Honda Accord Couple or Sedan, I recommend Thule Passage 3 Bike Carrier part # TH911XT because the weight capacity is 105 lbs compared...

  • How To Carry Bikes On a 2014 BMW X1
    I do have an option for you to carry bikes on your 2014 BMW X1 but they do not offer a trailer hitch for models with the panoramic sunroof. I cannot recommend that you modify one to work for you either. Therefore, your best option is to just use a trunk mounted bike rack for which I recommend the Thule OutWay Trunk Bike Rack # TH45JV This is highly popular and easy to install. It has many great features. Check out the video that I have included for you to see if you might be interested.

  • Thule OutWay 2-Bike Trunk Rack Recommendation for 2015 Toyota Rav4
    I checked with Thule and basically the only trunk mounted bike rack they don't fit for your 2015 Toyota RAV4 is the platform OutWay that you referenced. The hanging style OutWay part # TH45JV does fit and would work well. I prefer recommending this style as it doesn't weigh as much as the platform rack and doesn't have the same reputation for denting vehicles like the early versions of the platform style rack. If you plan on carrying any women's or alternative framed bikes without horizontal...

  • Fit of Thule 993005 OutWay Pro Platform Trunk Bike Rack on 2001 Audi A4 Quattro Wagon
    According to Thule, their OutWay Pro 993005 trunk mounted platform bike rack which we offer as part # TH65JV is indeed compatible with a 2001 Audi A4 Wagon. This rack works great, if you've ever used a trunk mount bike rack before, you'll be astounded by how easy the rack is to install, the ratcheting cables eliminate all the fumbling adjusting and and colorful language caused by the typical strap-style racks. The rack features locks that secure the rack to the vehicle and the bikes to...

  • Trunk Mounted Bike Rack that Fits 2016 Kia Sorento
    We have trunk mounted bike solutions that do fit your 2016 Kia Sorento but Thule does not list any of their bike racks as a fit for your vehicle. Instead the Yakima Fullback part # Y02634 is a fit and a really great option. It's very easy to install, lighterweight, and comes with locks for the bikes and for the rack to the bike.

  • Will the Saris Bones Hold a Step Through Bike Without Needing an Adapter Bar?
    Thats a nice looking bike! Unfortunately there aren't any trunk mount bike racks with dual arms like the Saris Bones 2 Bike Carrier part # SA805BL with out an adapter bar like the Malone Bike Adapter Bar part # MPG2165. I wouldn't be too put off by it. It will take about ten seconds to install it. There is the Thule OutWay 2-Bike Platform Rack part # TH65JV which will work out perfectly for your situation and allow you to get your bike where you want it without an adapter bar. I've included...

  • Is There an Adapter for the Thule OutWay 2 to Fit my 2019 BMW X3
    There are available trunk mount racks available for your 2019 BMW X3 but The Thule OutWay 2 part # TH65JV is not confirmed to fit by Thule. There is no available adapter. The Yakima FullBack 2 Bike Rack part # Y02634 is a good option if you do not have a carbon framed bike and the SeaSucker Komodo Trunk Bike Rack part # 298-BK1910-BK is a great option for carbon bikes.

  • Thule OutWay Compatibility with Carbon Frames
    Good catch! On a second look, this bike rack has a clamp on the frame meaning that the support is on the frame and not the wheels. The Thule Carbon Bike Frame Protector # TH984101 can be purchased separately to protect your frame from warping or cracking with this bike rack. The Thule Gateway Pro 2-Bike Rack - Trunk Mount - Adjustable Arms # TH88VR or 3 bike # TH78VR are still confirmed by Thule to be compatible with carbon frames due to their HideAway cradles.

  • Is there a Trunk Mount Bike Rack that Just Holds One Bike for a 2013 Nissan Rogue
    There is 1 trunk mount bike rack that holds a single bike and that fits your 2013 Nissan Rogue but it is a hanging style carrier; the Saris Solo, # SA102. You still might be able to use it though despite the design of your bike. You could use a bike adapter bar such as # 64005. I have linked a video showing how it works. For a platform style, trunk mount bike rack, we have the OutWay Platform # TH65JV but it holds up to 2 bikes (you can put 1 bike on if you want) and I would still need...

  • How to Install a Bike Rack on a 2022 Audi A3
    To carry a bike with your 2022 Audi A3 you'll need to have a hitch fabricated by a shop (since there are none custom made for your vehicle), or use trunk mounted rack since there currently (July 2023) are not roof rack options for your vehicle either. For a trunk mount rack I recommend the Thule OutWay which comes in 2 different styles: - Hanging Style 2-Bike # TH45JV OR 3-Bike # TH56BV - Platform Style # TH65JV This rack was designed for high-end vehicles both with how it attaches...

  • Trunk Mount Bike Rack Recommendation for a 2010 BMW 5-Series Sedan
    I checked with Thule and the OutWay platform style rack # TH65JV does technically fit your 2010 BMW 5-Series sedan. However I do not recommend this bike rack for your vehicle. This rack is heavy and when loaded, it is very heavy. Heavy enough to deform or otherwise damage the vehicle. I recommend going with the regular hanging style OutWay # TH45JV. This rack features the latest in cradle technology with road dampening padded cradles for better bike protection. The rack is lighter than...

  • Trunk Mounted Bike Rack Recommendation for a 2007 Ford Focus Sedan
    For your 2007 Ford Focus both of the Thule racks you referenced have been confirmed as a fit. Honestly I would strongly recommend you go with the hanging Outway part # TH45JV over the platform rack part # TH65JV. Most likely you would be fine with the platform rack, but I would hate to have the rack dent your vehicle if you hit a big bump or something similar. The previous generations of the platform OutWay had a reputation for denting bumpers so we try not to recommend them as much as...

I spoke to my contact at Thule and she informed me that the differences between the Thule OutWay Platform Bike Rack part # TH65JV and TH9003PRO include upgraded support arms for the tray assembly. The retractable cable assemblies now lock on both sides of the rack instead of just the one side. And finally the frame clamps have upgraded padding in them that uses their RDT padding (Road Dampening Technology). I have attached a video...

  • Best Way to Transport Expensive Bikes with a 2010 Honda Accord CrossTour
    We have hitches that are designed to fit your 2010 Honda Accord Crosstour. Hitch mounted bike racks are the way to go, especially for transporting expensive bikes for a long period of time. For a hitch you would want the Curt Hitch part # C11002 as this has been confirmed to fit your vehicle. For a top-of-the-line bike rack to use with this hitch I would recommend the Thule T2 Bike Rack part # TH9045. This rack is compatible with the hitch I referenced, can lock to your hitch and lock...

  • Trunk Mounted Bike Rack for 2005 BMW X3
    None of the hatch mount racks offered by Yakima or the Thule # TH910XT that you referenced, would be compatible with your X3, due to the configuration of the rear hatch. The top strap hooks would need to attach directly to the window glass or plastic trim, which do not have sufficient strength to support the combined weight of the bikes and the rack. The only trunk mount rack that is a confirmed fit for your BMW X3 is the Thule OutWay Platform Trunk Bike Rack for 2 Bikes - Adjustable...

If you plan on carrying any women's or alternative framed bikes without horizontal top tubes you may also be interested in purchasing a Swagman Easy-Out Women's and Alternative Frame Bike Adapter # 64005 to provide a horizontal top tube on your bikes to provide an attachment point.

  • Recommended Bike Rack For A Turbo Vado SL On A 2021 Kia Niro PHEV
    Hi James, Even with your e-bike weighing only 38lbs the compatible trunk-mounted bike racks for your 2021 Kia Niro PHEV unfortunately just aren't going to have enough capacity. Even though you'd only be using one of the spots on the rack the extra weight is going to wear on the rack and eventually break it and you'd be without a warranty. Instead you'll need a roof rack: Yakima JetStream Crossbars - Aluminum - Black - 50" Long - Qty 2 # Y00425 SightLine Towers for Yakima Crossbars - Flush...

  • Will Thule Passage Trunk Bike Rack Fit 2021 Honda Civic EX Hatchback
    The Thule Passage # TH910XT will only fit the 2021 Civic Sedan. If you want to stick with Thule you can use the OutWay # TH45JV or OutWay Platform # TH65JV. If you want an option at a lower price point you can use the Saris Bones EX # SAR83FR. These are the only trunk bike racks available for the hatchback model. If I were to choose one it would be the OutWay # TH45JV. I don't care for the high ride height of the bikes on the OutWay platform and don't think it is worth the additional cost....
