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:

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!

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.

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.

  • Best Trunk Mounted Bike Rack to fit a 2015 Ford Focus ST Hatchback
    Yes, the Thule Raceway part # TH45JV has been confirmed as a fit for your 2015 Ford Focus ST 5 door hatchback so it would be a great option. This is the nicest trunk rack on the market so it would be a great choice. 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...

  • How to Prevent Hooks from Detaching from Vehicle on the Thule Raceway Trunk Mount Bike Rack
    It is not a common occurrence for this to happen. I own the 3 bike version, The raceway # TH9002PRO, and have not had this issue. What I have found is that after you ensure the hooks are seated (give them a tug) tighten the knobs down to put tension on the cables. I tighten them until I can no longer turn them by hand. Next I bring up the arms and give the rack a shake. This should move the car as well indicating a secure fit. I then check the tightness on the knobs again. After I put...

  • Will Thule OutWay Platform Trunk Mount Bike Rack Dent the Bumper on a 2001 Subaru Legacy
    The Thule OutWay platform trunk mount bike rack # TH65JV, is best suited for vehicles that have a metal bumper which will be resistant to deformation. Vehicles with fiberglass bumpers will most likely experience some deforming due to the weight of the rack combined with the weight of a bike or bikes loaded on it. I recommend the much lighter OutWay 2, # TH45JV. With this rack and one bike loaded on it, you are much less likely to experience any bumper deformation. Make sure the bike rack...

  • Thule Trunk Bike Rack Recommendation for a 2012 BMW 5 Series
    I checked with Thule and the Thule OutWay 2 Bike Carrier # TH45JV will work on your 2012 BMW 528i. As long as you do not exceed the weight capacity of the rack or over tighten the rack you should not have any trunk lid damage. This rack is one of the best on the market and would be my first choice for a trunk mounted bike rack because of how easy it is to use, how lightweight it is and the fact that it uses rubber coated steel cables instead of straps that could be easily cut like other...

  • Will the Thule OutWay Trunk Mount Bike Rack Fit a 2013 Honda Accord 4-Door Sedan
    I checked with Thule and they do list the OutWay trunk mount bike rack # TH45JV as a fit for sedan models of the 2013 Honda Accord. If you will be carrying any bikes that do not have a top frame tube that goes straight across I recommend using an adapter bar # TH982XT to carry the bikes more level and provide better ground clearance. I have included a link to a video that shows how the adapter works.

  • Will the Thule OutWay 2 Fit a 2020 Toyota RAV4?
    Yes, I confirmed with Thule that the Thule OutWay Trunk Bike Rack for 2 Bikes - Adjustable Arms # TH45JV will fit your 2020 Toyota RAV4. If you want extra security so no one will steal the rack from your vehicle, I recommend the Thule Passive Security Strap # TH533. I went ahead and attached a video of how to install the security strap.

  • Trunk Mounted Bike Rack Recommendation for 2015 Lexus RX 350 and 2013 Mercedes S 550
    The Thule OutWay Trunk Mounted Bike Rack, # TH45JV, has been confirmed to fit the 2015 Lexus RX 350. This bike rack is very popular because it is loaded with features and installs quickly and easily. Now for the Mercedes. The Raceway is not listed as a fit for the 2013 S 550. For this vehicle you would want to go with a trunk mounted bike rack from Yakima like the HangOut 3, # Y02638. This bike rack offers a low-profile design and is also loaded with features. There are no trunk mounted...

  • Differences Between Thule OutWay # TH9001PRO and # TH9001XT Models
    Actually both of these models, the Thule # TH9001PRO and the # TH9001XT have been discontinued. The newest, upgraded version of the Raceway is the Thule OutWay # TH45JV. It took all of the great features of the Raceway and improved them even more. This rack is the absolute easiest bike to install using only 2 coated retractable cables instead of the 4-6 straps of older models. Take a look at the attached video to learn about all of its great features. I've linked you a product...

  • How to Load Alternative Frame Cannondale Bike on an Allen Sports Deluxe Bike Carrier
    I believe you are looking at the Allen Sports bike carriers which we do not carry. But I went to their website and found that they do not provide the information that you are looking for. I do know the type of bike frame you are talking about though and it is not likely going to fit the cradles of the Allen bike carrier properly. What you need is a bike adapter bar # 64005. On hanging style bike carriers, bikes with alternative frames would need an adapter bar to be able to fit on the...

  • Best Trunk Mounted Bike Rack Recommendation for 2015 Mazda 3 Sedan

The nicest rack we carry that has been confirmed as a fit for your vehicle is the Thule OutWay part # TH45JV. What makes this rack far superior to the others is the attachment system. It uses only 2 rubber coated straps to attach to the vehicle rather than 6 straps like other racks. This makes installation quick and easy. And it also uses the OnKey...

    To see the available trunk mounted bike racks for your Audi A6 Sedan, please click the provided link. Of the available choices, I can highly recommend the Thule OutWay, part # TH45JV. What makes the OutWay stand head and shoulders over the other options is the way that the rack attaches to the vehicle. Instead of using 6 straps that need to be adjusted each time the rack is installed or removed, the OutWay uses only 2 rubber-coated straps. This unique system allows the rack to be installed...

  • 2015 GMC Terrain Roof Rack Recommendation for Thule Hullavator
    For your 2015 GMC Terrain the roof rack I'd recommend for use with the Thule Hullavator part # TH898 is the Thule WingBar part numbers # TH711220 and # TH710401. This is a confirmed fit for your Terrain and will work really great with the Hullavator since Thule makes this too. The WingBars are aerodynamically shaped too which helps prevent wind noise. This configuration has been tested to work on your vehicle and with the Terrain so it will work really well overall.

  • Recommended Trunk-Mount Bike Rack for 2005 Toyota Camry
    We can help you with a suitable trunk-mount rack to transport your Electra Townie 7D bike that has fenders. Although we do not have any single-bike trunk carriers we do have compact lightweight 2-bike trunk racks that will work well for you. For a quality no-nonsense rack at a reasonable price I like the Thule Passage 2 rack # TH910XT. Since your Townie has a step-thru frame (no top frame tube) you'll also need an adapter bar # 64005 which will let the bike sit level when mounted on the...

  • Will the Thule OutWay Trunk Mount Bike Rack Fit a 2012 Volkswagen Beetle
    Provided that your 2012 Volkswagen Beetle is a hardtop, the Thule OutWay, # TH45JV, is listed as a fit. On a trunk mount bike rack, it is not the straps that determine how far the rack will be from the vehicle, it is the adjustable legs and arms. This bike rack has an easy to use dial system that you adjust to get the legs in the right place for any given vehicle. The best setting has already been determined by Thule and on your Beetle it is fit dial setting 7. You then adjust the arms...

The OutWay is the easiest to use trunk mount rack we offer. Its 2 rubber coated straps allow the rack to be installed or removed in a matter of moments.

  • Hitch With 2 Receiver For 2017 Prius V
    I have a solution for you that won't require the use of any type of hitch adapter, and that wouldn't be a great solution since using a hitch adapter would reduce the tongue weight capacity of your hitch by 50%; with a Class I hitch, that would really cause problems trying to fit a heavy carrier loaded with bikes and not be over capacity. I recommend using the EcoHitch # 306-X7192 . This hitch has a 2" receiver and a 525-lb tongue weight capacity to easily handle the weight of your bike...

  • Will the Thule OutWay 2 Bike Carrier # TH45JV Fit on a 2012 Jeep Liberty
    Yes, the Thule OutWay 2 Bike Carrier, # TH45JV, will fit on your 2012 Jeep Liberty. This bike rack uses 2 retractable straps at the top edge of the rear hatch to attach to the vehicle. If you plan on carrying any women's, children's or alternative frame bikes, I recommend looking into a bike adapter bar like part # TH982XT. Bikes with small or angled frames can be difficult to load on a bike rack and cause ground clearance issues. This adapter will allow you to mount your bikes easily...

These bike racks are very light weight and probably the easiest racks to install and remove that I have ever seen. The retractable cables make installation quick and easy. If you will be carrying women's, children's, or alternative frame bikes, I recommend using the Thule Adapter Bar, # TH982XT, in order to carry the bikes more level. I have included a link...

  • Bike Rack Recommendations for a 2015 Volkswagen Golf TDI
    For a trailer hitch for your 2015 Volkswagen Golf TDI you can use # C11412. You will need to make sure that your bike rack or cargo carrier is rated for use with a Class I trailer hitch. Also, with a bike rack, you are limited to 2 bikes maximum on a Class I hitch. For a bike rack, I recommend the Trailhead # S63360. Another option is to use a trunk mount carrier. The benefit of a trunk mount is that you will not have to install a hitch just for use with a bike rack. Trunk mount racks...
