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.

  • Will Full Sized and Kid Sized Bikes Fit on Thule OutWay Platform Trunk Bike Rack
    The Thule OutWay Platform Trunk Bike Rack for 2 Bikes # TH65JV has a clamping system to secure the bikes that is adjustable along that U-shaped tube. The best way to see if your bikes will both fit okay on this rack is to stand them up next to each other and see if there will be enough room for that longer arm to reach through or around your larger mountain bike to reach the frame of your smaller mountain bike. I went ahead and did a test fit of a standard mountain bike and smaller 20"...

  • Will the Thule Platform Bike Rack Fit on a 2002 Subaru Forester
    I checked the Thule fit guide an they do recommend the Thule OutWay, # TH65JV, for your 2002 Subaru Forester. I recently had a chance to install the OutWay on a vehicle and I really liked the adjustability of the rack. There is no need for an adapter bar for bikes with no horizontal cross tube and the wheel trays can be adjusted so that just about any two styles of bikes can be carried. The only drawback to this rack is that it is pretty heavy for a trunk mount option and some of our...

  • Will Thule OutWay Platform Rack Fit a 2022 Nissan Pathfinder
    I have a solution for you to carry 2 bikes with your 2022 Nissan Pathfinder but at this time (January 2022) Thule hasn't confirmed fitment of any trunk mount racks for your vehicle. They may list the OutWay # TH65JV as fitting in the future, but for now we will need to look at a different solution. For a trunk mount rack I recommend going with the Yakima FullBack # Y02634 which is a high quality bike rack that is easy to install as well as use. Another great thing about this rack is that...

  • Will the ThuleOutWay Platform Bike Rack # TH65JV Fit on a 2011 Mustang with Satellite Antenna
    The Thule OutWay Platform-Style 2 Bike Carrier, item # TH65JV, is recommended for your vehicle by the manufacturer, but my contact there said that they were not able to test vehicles with the satellite radio antenna, that you mentioned, on the trunk of the vehicle. You may experience issues with any of the truck mount racks that we carry, because of the antenna. Your best option would probably be to add a trailer hitch, like the Draw-Tite Sportframe Trailer Hitch, item # 24863, along...

  • Platform Trunk Rack Recommendation for a 2013 Hyundai Elantra GT
    For your 2013 Hyundai we do offer a trunk mounted platform bike rack that has been confirmed to fit. Check out the Thule OutWay 2-Bike Platform Rack # TH65JV. As far as trunk mounted bike racks go this is one of the nicest ones around. Check out the review video I attached for more info. I would strongly recommend you stay under the weight capacity for this rack (33 lbs per bike) and clean the rear of your vehicle every time you install the rack on it.

  • Bike Rack Recommendation for BMW 5-Series Carrying Cannondale Carbon Frame Road Bike
    A premium bicycle such as your Cannondale carbon frame road bike will indeed benefit from a bike rack that will not apply stress to its frame. A platform-type carrier that supports the bike at its wheels is one option and another is a wheel-mount type that suspends the bike from its wheels. The other consideration for choosing a bike rack is your vehicle. You want to choose a bike carrying option that will not stress or damage your vehicle. Bike racks vary considerably in their weight,...

  • Trunk Mount Platform Style Bike Rack for a 2017 Lexus ES 350
    It sounds like you are talking about a trunk mount, platform style bike rack. We do have some that will fit your 2017 Lexus ES 350. I recommend the Thule OutWay 2-Bike Platform Rack - Trunk Mount # TH65JV which is a confirmed fit for your vehicle. This rack attaches to the back of the vehicle using 2 straps. After the initial set up and installation all subsequent installs will get progressively easier and quicker as you become familiar with how the rack installs on your particular vehicle....

  • 2017 Volkswagen Jetta Trunk Mount Bike Rack Fitment
    I have some bike rack recommendations for your 2017 Volkswagen Jetta but unfortunately Thule doesn't list the OutWay Platform Trunk Bike Rack # TH65JV as a fit for your vehicle. If the goal is to carry your bikes with a trunk mount rack then my recommendation is the Yakima FullBack 2 Bike Rack # Y02634. This is one of the best trunk mount racks that we have due to how easy it is to install and use. This is a hanging style rack so if any of your bikes lacks a horizontal top tube you'll...

  • 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.

  • Trunk Mount Bike Rack Recommendation for a 2014 Jeep Grand Cherokee
    The platform version of the Thule OutWay # TH65JV, is not a fit for your 2014 Jeep Grand Cherokee but I do have an excellent recommendation for you. Since the Jeep Grand Cherokee has that spoiler piece at the top of the hatch I recommend the Hollywood Racks Over-the-Top Rack # HRF2. It has an additional upper arm piece that moves the top straps up and over the spoiler so no weight is put on it. I have linked a video showing how it works. It is also available in a 3-bike version # HRF2-3. If...

  • Recommended Trunk Mounted Bike Rack For 2013 BMW X1 Without The Panoramic Roof
    I reached out to my contact at Draw-Tite, and there is not a hitch compatible with your non-panoramic roof 2013 BMW X1. For you to carry bikes, I recommend using a trunk mounted bike carrier like the Thule OutWay 2-Bike Platform Rack - Trunk Mount - Adjustable Arms # TH65JV which is confirmed to fit your vehicle. This bike rack carries 2 bikes similar to the platform bike racks you see in hitch mounts. It has the locks to deter theft and has road dampening technology built into the bike...

  • Will The Thule OutWay # TH65JV Fit My 2017 Prius V?
    The Thule Outway # TH65JV is not confirmed to fit your 2017 Toyota Prius V. That is the only trunk mounted platform rack option available. That being said, we do have what you need to be able to get a platform style rack for your Prius. You will need a hitch receiver # 306-X7192 and a rack like the Hollywood Racks Destination # HLY94FR. Since it's a higher end bike, I don't like suggesting a hanging style rack, but if you are 100% set on not getting a hitch then you can get a trunk mounted...

  • Will Platform-Style Bike Carriers Fit a 2008 Mercedes C350
    I spoke with my contact at Thule and the OutWay Platform-Style 2 Bike Carrier, # TH65JV, has been confirmed to fit your 2008 Mercedes C350, however, there is a risk of the bumper cover becoming deformed with the use of this carrier. They strongly discourage using this rack because although it fits, it is heavy and better suited for vehicles with a metal bumper. Damage to the car from using this rack will not be covered under any warranty from Thule. Thule strongly suggests going with a...

  • Trunk Mount Bike Rack for Both a 2014 Buick Encore and 2014 Honda CR-V
    The Thule OutWay platform style trunk mount rack is listed as a fit for the 2014 Buick Encore but not the 2014 Honda CR-V. I would not recommend this rack for those vehicles though because it is very heavy when loaded and will damage the vehicles. For a trunk mount bike rack that will fit both vehicles you can use the Hollywood Racks Over-The-Top rack, # HRF2. I have included a link to a video review of this rack for you.

  • Recommendation for a Trunk Mounted 2-Bike Carrier for a 2013 Buick Enclave
    The most popular 2-bike rack being used on the 2013 Buick Enclave would be the Thule OutWay trunk bike rack, part # TH45JV. This rack has easy-to-use fit dials for tightening the attachment straps, and it includes a built-in cable lock for securing the bikes. Since the bikes would hang on the two arms of the bike rack, you would need an adapter bar, part # TH982XT, if you plan to carry women's bikes or other bikes with slanted or oddly-shaped top tubes. The adapter bar allows the bike to...

  • Recommended Trunk-Mount Bike Carrier For 2012 Chevrolet Malibu
    Getting a 3-bike carrier for 2 bikes is a great idea. Many customers do that for the very reason you mentioned. You place more room between the bikes and that is always a good thing. The Thule OutWay , part # TH56BV is a nice bike carrier with updated road dampening technology. The FitDial makes it very easy to mount the bike rack to your 2012 Chevrolet Malibu. This bike rack has 2 retractable steel cables to secure it to the vehicle versus other bike racks that use 6 nylon straps. The...

  • Recommendation of Trunk Bike Rack To Fit a 2006 Mini Cooper 3 Door Hatchback
    The Thule OutWay Platform-Style Bike Rack, part # TH65JV, you have referenced, will fit on your 2006 Mini Cooper, however, it is a heavy rack, about 94 lbs fully loaded, and can potentially damage your rear hatch if the bike rack is installed too tightly with a heavy load. Trunk mounted bike racks are not designed to damage your vehicle if they are installed correctly and used within capacity. For a trunk mounted bike rack, I recommend using the Thule OutWay 2 Bike Rack, part # TH45JV....

  • Trunk Mounted Bike Rack Recommendation for a 2012 Toyota Prius V
    I was able to find trunk mounted bike racks that are confirmed to fit your 2012 Toyota Prius V with a spoiler. Thule does not recommend any of their trunk mounted bike racks for your vehicle, but Hollywood Racks has one that will fit. The 3 bike rack that I would recommend you get is the Hollywood Racks Over the Top part # HRF2-3. If you plan on carrying any womens or alternative framed bikes without horizontal top tubes you may also be interested in purchasing a Yakima Tube Top Adapter...

  • Trunk Mounted Bike Rack for 2013 Buick LaCrosse
    According to Thule, their OutWay Platform Bike Rack, part # TH65JV is not a fit for your LaCrosse. Once the bikes are loaded on the rack, it would be heavy enough to damage the vehicle. However, Thule offers a 2 bike hanging version of the OutWay, part # TH45JV that is a fit for the 2013 Buick LaCrosse. This is the easiest rack to install and comes with locks for both the rack and the bikes. Any time a piece of equipment is in direct contact with the painted surface of a vehicle, the...

  • Do You Carry a Light Platform Bike Rack with A Threaded Hitch Pin that Wont Block the License Plate
    I have a solution for you. Every hitch rack will block the license plate to a certain extend with bikes loaded or when folded up. For a solution that does not involve a roof rack, I recommend the Yakima PlateMate License Plate Holder for Bike Racks # Y02713. With the PlateMate, you will be able to attach your license plates to your bikes during transport. However, if you are open to trunk racks, the Thule OutWay Platform Trunk Bike Rack for 2 Bikes # TH65JV is an option that is both lighter...

  • How does the ThuleOutWay Platform 2 Install on a 2014 Honda Insight
    In the installation instructions of the Thule OutWay Platform 2 Bike Rack, # TH65JV, the upper support strap will connect in the gap at the front edge at the top of the hatch door. The clip should not have any contact with the glass in your hatch back door. The strap may contact the glass, but the actual mounting point will be at a body joint on your vehicle. However, Thule does state that when the carrier is mounted to your Honda you will not be able to use the rear wiper blade.

  • Thule OutWay Platform or Hanging Bike Rack Recommendation for 2015 Toyota Camry
    I would recommend the Thule OutWay hanging rack part # TH45JV over the OutWay platform rack # TH65JV. The platform style OutWay is a bit heavier and in it's early versions had some issues with vehicles getting dented. They have since resolved that problem but still I tend to avoid recommending it. The # TH45JV though is by far the nicest option so I steer everyone towards it if they are considering it. What makes this rack far superior to the others is the attachment system. It uses...
