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:

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.



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:

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.



by:

Great product. Packaging came damaged but product looked ok.

  • Trunk Mounted 3 Bike Rack Recommendation for a 2006 Nissan Altima
    First, all of the trailer hitches for the 2006 Nissan Altima are Class I trailer hitches that can carry a maximum of 2 bikes. To carry 3 bikes, I recommend going with a trunk mount bike rack. The best rack and the easiest rack to install is the Thule OutWay, # TH56BV. It uses retractable cables that make installation and removal fast and simple. For the women's bikes, in order to carry them more level, you will need to use bike adapter bars on them, # TH982XT. I have included a link to...

  • Can the Thule OutWay 3 Bike Rack be Used on a 2010 Cadillac SRX
    Yes, I checked with Thule and the Thule OutWay 3 Bike Carrier # TH56BV can be used on your 2010 Cadillac SRX. If you plan on carrying women's or alternative framed bikes you may also be interested in purchasing a Thule Bike Adapter Bar # TH982XT. I attached a review video for this product as well.

  • Trunk Mount Bike Rack Recommendations for a 2006 Volvo XC90 and a 2011 GMC Acadia
    I have very good news. Both the 2011 GMC Acadia and the 2006 Volvo XC90 can accept many of the same trunk mounted bike racks. I have included a link to the trunk mounts that will fit each of the vehicles for you. If you are looking for a 3 bike rack, I recommend the Thule OutWay, # TH56BV. This is a top tier rack and I bet your wife will like the fact that it is not only light weight (under 19 pounds) but also how quickly and easily it installs. This rack uses only 2 retractable cables,...

  • Bike Rack Recommendations for Carrying a Single and Tandem Bikes on a 2008 Toyota Prius
    I checked with Thule and the Thule OutWay 3 Bike Carrier # TH56BV is confirmed to fit your 2008 Toyota Prius. The biggest limiting factor for whether or not you could carry your tandem bike plus your 2 other bikes will be the weight of your bikes and the length of your tandem bike. The weight limit for this rack is 99 pounds, which I believe you would pretty easily exceed with your tandem bike plus your other two bikes. What you could do is put your two bikes on the # TH56BV, and then...

  • 3-Bike Trunk Rack for 2015 Audi A3 5-Door Sportback
    The hatchback version of the 2015 Audi A3 is known as the Sportback e-tron, which is a plug-in hybrid. Very few of this particular model have been brought into the U.S. Most were sold in Europe. This could easily be why bike rack companies like Saris did not (or were not able to) test fit this car for a 3-bike trunk-mount rack. We also do NOT have the hatchback included in our own FitGuide. BUT (good news) Thule, who markets bike racks globally, does have a confirmed 3-bike rack fit for...

  • Thule OutWay 3 Trunk Bike Rack Compatibility With A 2013 Porsche Cayenne
    If you already have a 2" hitch receiver like the Draw-Tite Max-Frame Hitch # 75950 you have a lot of choices for bike racks, but if you are looking for a trunk rack then the Thule OutWay 3 # TH56BV will work. I do recommend not getting a trunk rack for your 2013 Porsche Cayenne just because it can cause damage to your paint. I stay away from trunk mounted racks as much as possible, but all my vehicles already have hitches on them. If you did decide to get the hitch, the Thule Helium # TH44VR...

  • Is the Thule OutWay Bike Carrier Compatible with a 2009 Subaru Impreza
    Yes, I checked with Thule and the Thule OutWay 2 Bike Carrier # TH56BV is a confirmed fit for your 2009 Subaru Outback Wagon. Check out the installation instructions and review video that I attached for this product for you to also. If you plan on carrying women's or alternative framed bikes you may also be interested in purchasing a Thule Women's and Alternative Frame Bike Adapter Bar # TH982XT.

  • 2022 Jeep Cherokee Fitment with Thule OutWay Trunk Bike Rack
    Yes, the Thule OutWay Trunk Bike Rack for 3 Bikes # TH56BV will fit your 2022 Jeep Cherokee L Limited. This is marketed as being able to open up your hatch without removing the rack itself which is true, but you do want to make sure you remove the bikes prior to opening the hatch. If any of your bikes has a kid's frame or lacks a horizontal top tube, like what you see with a typical men's bike, then be sure to pick up an adapter bar # TH982XT for it as well.

  • How To Mount the Thule OutWay 3-Bike Rack To A 2006 Dodge Caravan
    We have not yet had a chance to mount the Thule OutWay 3-Bike Rack - Trunk Mount - Adjustable Arms part # TH56BV on a 2005 Hyundai Santa Fe or a 2006 Dodge Caravan. However, to install the Thule OutWay 3 on a 2006 Dodge Caravan you would need to set the fit dial to 10 for the rack to fit properly. For the 2005 Hyundai Santa Fe the bike rack would be set to 9 to fit properly. It is normal for the Thule OutWay to rest on the rear glass window of hatchback vehicles. There is padding on the...

  • Trunk Mounted Bike Rack Recommendation for 2009 Mazda CX-7 and 2013 Toyota Sienna
    Between your two vehicles there actually are no trunk rack fits for both. The OutWay part # TH56BV does fit your 2009 Mazda CX-7 and would work well. The Sienna would need a Hollywood Racks Over the Top part # HRF2-3 which is a fit for vehicles like this with spoilers.

  • Best Way to Carry 3 Bikes with 2016 Kia Forte5
    I have a great solution for you to carry your three bikes but since the hitches for your 2016 Kia Forte5 are Class I there isn't a way to carry more than two bikes with them. So instead your best option is a trunk mounted bike rack that can carry up to 3 bikes and is confirmed as a fit for your vehicle. The best option is the Thule Raceway 3 bike rack part # TH56JV. What makes this rack far superior to the others is the attachment system. It uses only 2 retractable coated steel cables...

  • Recommended Trunk-Mounted Bike Carrier For 2005 Volkswagen Passat Wagon
    If you are looking for a 2-bike carrier for your 2005 Volkswagen Passat Wagon, I recommend the Thule Gateway 2 Bike Carrier, part # TH88VR. This carrier holds bike frames at 3 points to prevent sway and bike-to-bike contact, and uses 6 nylon straps to secure the carrier to your Passat. If you are looking for a 3-bike option, I recommend the Thule OutWay 3-Bike Rack # TH56BV. When trunk-mounted carriers are installed the rear windshield wiper cannot be used. If you are carrying bikes...

  • Will Thule Trunk Mount Bike Rack Fit a 2016 Nissan Versa Note
    It looks like there has been an update and the OutWay actually won't fit the 2016 Nissan Versa Note, but you could use the similar Gateway Pro # TH78VR from Thule as an alternative. Sometimes fits will change for newer vehicles or if the bike rack is newer as the manufacturer is able to get more and more vehicles in their system which is why we are seeing this change. Attached is a review video of the Gateway Pro for you to check out. Don't forget an Adapter Bar # TH982XT if any of your...

  • Best Way to Carry 3 Bikes with a 2008 Nissan Altima Sedan
    Hitch mounted bike racks are normally a better route than trunk mounted racks. They provide a much more secure attachment to the vehicle and they don't touch any painted surfaces. However since the hitches confirmed to fit your 2008 Nissan Altima Sedan are all Class I hitches that can only carry up to 2 bikes a trunk mounted bike rack would be your best option. The best 3 bike trunk rack confirmed to fit your vehicle is the Thule OutWay 3 Bike Carrier # TH56BV. What makes this rack far...

  • Bike Rack Recommendations for a 2006 Honda Odyssey
    The only 3 bike trunk mounted bike rack we carry that is confirmed to fit your 2006 Honda Odyssey is the Hollywood Racks Over the Top Trunk Rack part # HRF2-3. This is a great rack that shouldn't damage your vehicle as long as you stay under the capacity of the rack and install it properly. The most ideal solution though would be a hitch mounted bike rack since the rack wouldn't touch your vehicle at all. First you would need a hitch, for that I would recommend the Draw-Tite part # 75270....

  • 3-Bike Trunk Rack Recommendation for a 2016 Infiniti QX50
    We have trunk mounted racks that are confirmed as a fit for your 2016 Infiniti QX50, but the # HRF2-3 is not one of them. The nicest trunk rack for carrying 3 bikes that is a fit is the Thule OutWay part # TH58BV. What makes this rack far superior to the others is the attachment system. It uses only 2 retractable coated steel cables to attach to the vehicle rather than 4-6 nylon straps like other racks. This makes installation quick and easy and the cables also last longer. The cables...

  • Recommended Trunk-Mount Bike Rack For 2015 Toyota RAV4
    You are right that a trunk mount bike rack would be the best option. I called my contact at Thule and they told me the structure of the spoiler and glass on the rear hatch prevent a rear mounted carrier from being used and they do not have a carrier that will work for the Captiva. The bike rack I recommend for the RAV4 is the Thule OutWay # TH45JV. This bike rack uses 2 rubber coated straps instead of the 6 straps normally found on most trunk mount bike racks. For a 3-bike version...

  • 3 Bike Rack Compatible With 2005 Nissan Murano and 2009 Ford Fusion
    We do carry a bike rack that would work with both your 2005 Nissan Murano and your 2009 Ford Fusion and would allow you to carry 3 bikes. The Hollywood Racks # HRF2-3 Over the Top bike rack features a central support that means the weight of the racks won't be hanging from the spoiler at the top of the hatchback of your Murano and possibly damaging it. It's also compatible with your Fusion. I'll link you to a video showing how the Over the Top rack works. The 3 bike version of the Thule...

  • Recommended Rear Mounted Bike Rack for 2012 Volkswagen Golf Wagon Without a Trailer Hitch
    According to my research the Golf Wagon was a Canada released Volkswagen model between 2010-2014. The following rear mounted bike racks will be a fit for your 2012 Golf Wagon: # TH65JV # TH45JV # TH56BV All of the racks will include locks and allow you to lock your bike to the rack as well as the rack to the vehicle. If you happen to have an alternative framed bike like many women's bikes do then you will need the use of an adapter bar like # TH982XT for the bikes to mount properly. I...

  • Fit of Thule OutWay 3 Bike Trunk Mount Rack on 2015 Toyota Prius
    The Thule OutWay 3 bike trunk mount bike rack, part # TH56BV will indeed work great on your 2015 Prius. The Yakima QuickBack 3 has been discontinued. Of all the trunk mount racks we offer, I like the OutWay the best. Due to its 2 retractable cables, the rack is about a million times easier to install than other racks that use the strap and buckles to attach to the vehicle. No exaggeration. The rack can be installed in moments, and the retractable cables can be locked to secure the rack...

    I checked with Thule and they confirmed that the Thule OutWay 3 Bike Carrier # TH56BV that you referenced is confirmed to fit your 2004 Honda Civic EX. The only limit they put on this rack on your (and every vehicle) is that you should not exceed the 99 lb weight capacity of the rack. I attached an install video for this rack for you to check out also. If you plan on carrying any women's or alternative framed bikes without horizontal top tubes you may also be interested in purchasing...

  • Trunk Mount Bike Rack Options for 2015 Subaru Forester XT with Factory Spoiler
    We have not heard back from any of our customers about how the OutWay # TH56BV impacts the factory spoiler on their Subaru Forester. I recommend checking out the spoiler on your Forester to determine if it is a plastic spoiler or a metal spoiler that is integrated in the door. If the spoiler is metal and part of the door, the Thule OutWay # TH56BV will work well. A metal spoiler is stronger and can hold up better to the weight of the rack and your bikes.

What makes this rack far superior to the others is the attachment system. It uses only 2 retractable coated steel cables to attach to the vehicle rather than 6 nylon straps like other racks.
