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.

  • 2013 Nissan Pathfinder Trunk Mount Bike Rack Recommendation
    If your 2013 Nissan Pathfinder is equipped with a rear spoiler, and from my research it most likely is, you might want to consider the Hollywood Rack Over the Top # HRF2. Currently we only have this bike rack in 2 bike configuration. This bike rack is one of our newest products and is specifically designed to be used on vehicles with a rear spoiler. The design of this trunk mounted bike rack reduces the stress that can be placed on the rear spoiler when using a trunk mount bike rack. The...

  • Trailer Hitch and Bike Carrier Recommendations for a 2010 Honda Odyssey
    The safest way to carry bikes is by using a trailer hitch and hitch mounted bike carrier. Trunk mount carriers only go up to 3 bikes, any more than that and it would put way too much stress on the attachment points on the vehicle. And the roof is probably not wide enough for all 4 bikes, let alone able to support the weight of 4 bikes. So the options are a combination of a trunk mount and roof mount set up or a trailer hitch and hitch mount bike carrier. I recommend the simplicity of a...

  • Do I Need To Use The Spoiler Support Straps For The Thule OutWay Trunk Bike Rack
    We do recommend always using the spoiler support strap for additional stability and safety. Loosening the strap can be done fairly quickly, even quicker once you get the hang of it. From the looks of the spoiler on the back of a 2023 Chevy Bolt EUV you will definitely want to use the spoiler support strap kit that comes with the Thule OutWay Trunk Bike Rack # TH56BV.

  • What Bike Rack Do You Recommend for My 2021 Kia Niro EV?
    I have a great bike rack solution for you. Unfortunately, we do not currently have a hitch that will fit your EV model of 2021 Kia Niro. However, a great alternative solution is a trunk rack. For that route, I recommend the Thule OutWay 2 # TH45JV or the Thule OutWay 3 # TH56BV. Both OutWay racks have a 33-pound per-bike weight capacity and comes with one-key system locks to deter the theft of your bikes from the rack as well as the rack from your vehicle. If you have bikes that have...

  • Recommended Bike Rack for 2013 Audi S4 Sedan
    The trunk-mount bike racks recommended for your 2013 Audi S4 Sedan can be seen on the linked page. These include both 2- and 3-bike carriers in both the hanging and platform styles. In general it is wise to use as lightweight a rack as possible in order to minimize the weight load on your trunk, but it is also true that the racks with the best construction and the most included features (like built-in locks) tend to weigh more. Better racks also tend to be easier to mount on the car. A...

  • Trailer Hitch for a 2009 Honda Accord Sedan and a Bike Rack
    For your 2009 Honda Accord sedan I recommend Curt trailer hitch # C11496. With the other hitch options there is an additional part you would need to be able to use a bike rack but not with this hitch. This and all of the hitches for your Accord are Class I hitches with 1-1/4 inch receivers. Class I trailer hitches are rated for a maximum of 2 bikes because it cannot handle additional weight that is further away from the receiver. I have linked the Class I compatible 2-bike racks for you....

  • Trunk Mount Bike Rack Recommendation for a 2004 Toyota Prius
    The Thule OutWay, # TH56BV will fit your 2004 Toyota Prius! It holds 3 bikes and has a 99 pound total capacity. It can lock the bikes to the rack and the rack can be locked to the vehicle. It uses only 2 retractable cables to attach to the vehicle so it installs much quicker and easier than any other trunk mount carrier I have used.

  • 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...

  • Is the Thule OutWay 2Bike or 3Bike the Better Choice for Mounting My Mountain and Hybrid Bikes
    I recommend the Thule OutWay -3 bike rack # TH56BV to easily mount your bikes on your 2013 Toyota Corolla. This rack allows you to carry up to 99 lbs. so you will not have to worry about carrying too close to the weight capacity. Also, mounting two bikes is easier on a bike rack which carries 3 bikes over a bike rack only designed for two. When mounting your bikes, always have the heavier bike mounted closer to the vehicle. In your case, the hybrid bike most likely weighs more and should...

  • Available 3-Bike Rack Options for 2010 Toyota Highlander
    Due to the fact that the support hooks would need to attach directly to the glass in the rear tailgate, none of our bike rack manufacturers recommend using a trunk mount rack on your vehicle. The glass lacks the strength to support the weight of the bikes and the carrier, and could shatter unexpectedly. This leaves a roof mount or a hitch mount option. If you have a bare roof, Rhino Rack the Vortex Aero Roof Rack that could be constructed using # RRVA137S-2 54 inch crossbars, the # RRRLKVA...

  • Mounting an FS Mountain Bike on Thule OutWay Bike Rack on 2012 Jeep Grand Cherokee
    The Thule OutWay 2 Bike Rack # TH45JV will accommodate varying bike frame designs, including your mountain bike, but it may require the use of an adapter bar like the # TH982XT in order to fit over the arms and ride level. According to customer feedback, the Thule adapter bar works much better than other adapter bars for mountain bikes with the Raceway bike rack. The OutWay 2 has a maximum weight capacity of 66 pounds so you may want to weigh your bikes to determine if they will prove...

  • 3 Bike Trunk Rack Recommendation for a 2008 Mazda 5
    For a 3 bike trunk mounted bike rack for your 2008 Mazda 5 I would recommend the Thule OutWay part # TH56BV for several reasons. But most importantly because you have small kid framed bikes and the arms of the rack are adjustable in width so they can accommodate kids 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 the 4-6 nylon straps like other racks. This makes installation...

  • Trunk Mounted Bike Rack Recommendation for a 2014 Toyota Prius with Glass Roof
    I spoke with my contact at Thule and she confirmed that the Thule OutWay 3-Bike Rack # TH56BV that you referenced will fit your 2014 Toyota Prius with a glass roof. The fit info that you referenced would be for roof racks as their roof racks do not work with the glass roof. I attached a review video for this rack for you to check out as well. 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...

  • 3-Bike Trunk-Mount Bike Rack Options for 2014 Dodge Journey Crossroad
    We have many options in trunk-mount 3-bike racks confirmed to fit on your 2014 Dodge Journey Crossroad edition. Since the Journey has a small spoiler at the rear hatch roofline I suggest the Hollywood Racks Over-the-Top 3 Bike Rack # HRF2-3 so long as you have raised rails or load bars on the roof. This rack's unique design avoids contact with the spoiler and it uses straps that connect to the roof rack or rails for extra support. If you do not have the roof structure to allow attachment...

  • Recommended Trunk Mounted 3 Bike Rack for 2011 Toyota Prius
    The Thule Gateway 3 bike model, part # TH78VR is a fit for your Prius. All of the racks you mentioned would contact the the rear window, but due to the fact that the vast majority of the weight would be borne by the bottom portion of the rack, this will not prove a problem. The straps would indeed be long enough to reach the top of the hatch. Although all the racks you mentioned would work, I sincerely believe you would like the OutWay, part # TH56BV best. Instead of the awkward straps...

    Yes, I checked with Yakima and the Quickback 3 that you referenced has been confirmed as a fit for your 2015 Subaru Crosstrek XV. We no longer carry this bike rack so I can't recommend it for you. The closest rack to the Quickback that we still carry is the Thule OutWay part # TH56BV. 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 the 4-6 nylon straps like other racks. This makes...

  • Trunk mount Bike Rack Recommendation for a 2013 Cadillac SRX
    There are trunk mount bike racks listed as a fit for the 2013 Cadillac SRX, see link. However, there is one thing that you will need to look at first. If the vehicle has the plastic trim piece (spoiler) at the top that would interfere with the hooks or cables then you cannot use a trunk mount bike rack. That spoiler is not rated to support the weight of a rack. If you determine you can use a trunk mount bike rack then I recommend going with the Thule OutWay, # TH56BV. I actually own this...

    The Thule OutWay 3 Bike Rack, # TH56BV, is confirmed to fit your 2005 Toyota Highlander and your 2004 Honda Accord. This bike rack comes with four ratcheting cables that attach to the top and bottom edges of the rear hatch and trunk on your vehicles. The cables on this bike rack we designed to last longer than the typical nylon straps that you find on most bike racks. Please note, if you have a spoiler on the top of the rear hatch on your Highlander, the cables should be routed under the...

  • Bike Rack Recommendation for 2012 Nissan Versa
    With a Class I hitch (which is all that is available for your 2012 Nissan Versa), you can carry 2 bikes due to the weight restrictions on a light hitch. The most bikes your '12 Versa hatchbacks can carry is 3, and that would be with a trunk-mounted bike rack. If you are looking for the best rack, the Thule OutWay # TH56BV is what you want. This is a 3-bike carrier with anti-sway cradles, pads to absorb road shock and no-sway cages to prevent your bikes from making contact with each other....

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.

  • Will the Thule Outway Trunk Mount Bike Rack Fit a 2009 BMW 535 and 2014 BMW 4-Series
    First, to answer the question about the different versions or generations of the OutWay, part # TH45JV is the newest and current. The old one was TH9001, the TH9001XT. and the TH9001PRO. If you order # TH45JV you will get the newest version. We actually do have the OutWay # TH45JV listed as a fit for the 2014 BMW 4-Series coupe. Provided the hard top convertible has the gap between the body and the trunk lid then the top straps can hook on. Top up or down would require test fitting it...

This rack is also available in a 3-bike version, # TH45JV. If you will be carrying any bikes that do not have a top frame tube that goes straight across (like a typical men's bike would) I recommend using a bike adapter bar, # 64005, to carry those bikes level on the rack.
