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!

2021 BMW X3

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 bike rack ever

  • Fit of Thule Passage Trunk Mounted Bike Rack # TH910XT on 2001 Volkswagen Jetta
    The Thule Passage 2 Bike Rack you mentioned, part # TH910XT will indeed fit, and would work very well on your 2001 Volkswagen Jetta. If you will be using the rack frequently, and you will be installing and removing the rack often, you might want to also consider the Thule OutWay # TH45JV. The OutWay is a more expensive rack, but its innovative attachment system allows the rack to be installed or removed in seconds, as opposed to the rather clumsy buckle and strap arrangement used by other...

  • Recommended Trunk Mounted Bike Rack for 2010 Mercedes Benz C320
    The least expensive trunk mounted bike rack that will fit your 2010 Mercedes C320 is the Hollywood Racks Express, # HRE3. This rack is a very basic rack. It does not include anti-sway cradles and is not the best option for anything other than short trips. The best trunk mount rack we offer is the Thule OutWay, part # TH45JV. Instead of the 4-6 difficult to use straps and buckles that need to be adjusted each and every time the rack is installed or removed, the Raceway features 2 rubber...

  • Bike Rack Recommendations for a Mercedes C350 Coupe/BMW 3 Series Coupe
    I checked on the 2011 Mercedes C350 and there are no hitches available for the coupe models. The # C11030 that you referenced will work on the sedans but not the coupes. Since I do not know what year BMW 3 series you have I can not say for certain if a hitch is available. Email me back and I will let you know if there is one available. I checked and the Thule OutWay Bike Carrier # TH45JV will work on your C350 and every generation of BMW 3 Series coupes so I believe it would be a good...

  • 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....

  • Compatibility of Thule Passage Trunk Mount Bike Rack # TH910XT with 2008 Chevy Equinox
    The Thule Passage bike rack you referred to, part # TH910XT will indeed fit your 2008 Equinox. While the rack is in place, you will want to make sure NOT to use your rear wiper. If you will be using a rack very frequently, you might be interested in the Thule OutWay part # TH45JV. The OutWay uses 2 rubber coated straps that attach the rack to the vehicle, instead of the rather awkward 6 straps and buckles used by other racks. The rack also features locks to secure the rack and the bikes...

  • Availability of Receiver Hitch for 2012 Volkswagen Golf R
    I spoke with my contact at Draw-Tite, and was told that the Golf R model was not tested for hitch fits. My contact could neither confirm nor deny that the hitch would fit that vehicle. I spoke with Curt about their # C11000, and was told that it will not fit the R model. If you were wanting to use the hitch as a mount for a bike rack, Thule and Yakima both have bike racks that are a confirmed fit for the R model. To see the compatible models, click the provided link.

    If your 2011 Mercedes Benz C300 Sedan has a thin lip spoiler on the trunk lid you should have no problem installing a trunk mounted bike rack on your 2011 Mercedes Benz C300. For carrying two bikes I recommend you get a Thule OutWay 2 Bike Trunk Mounted Carrier # TH45JV. This rack is confirmed to fit your vehicle and is one of the best racks available due to how well it carries bikes and how easy it is to install and un-install.

    Per Thule The Thule OutWay Trunk Bike Rack # TH45JV is not confirmed to fit the 2011 Honda Element.

  • Trunk Mounted Bike Rack Recommendation for a 2011 BMW 335 xi Sedan
    The trunk mounted bike rack that I would recommend for your 2011 BMW 335 xi Sedan is the Thule OutWay 2 Bike Rack, # TH45JV. This is one of our most popular bike racks that uses 2 ratcheting cables to secure the bike rack to your trunk. The cables will provide a stronger connection than traditional straps and you will not have to worry about straps flying around in the wind. If you plan on carrying any women's, children's or alternative bike frames, then you may also want to pick up the...

  • Best Trunk Mounted Bike Rack Recommendation for 2015 Mazda 3 Sedan
    Since you normally can't install a hitch on a leased vehicle your best option would be a trunk mounted bike rack for your 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...

  • 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...

  • Best Trunk Mounted Bike Rack Recommendation for a 2001 Lexus RX 300
    I have an easy to use trunk mounted bike rack option for your 2001 Lexus RX 300, but no trunk rack is going to allow you to open the rear door with the rack installed. The Thule OutWay # TH45JV would be your best option. What makes this rack far superior to the others is the attachment system. It uses2 retractable coated straps to attach to the vehicle rather than 6 nylon straps like other racks. This makes installation quick and easy and the cables also last longer. The cables store...

  • Recommended Easy to Install Trunk Mounted Bike Rack for 2009 Acura TL
    Thule trunk mount bike racks are fully assembled, it doesn't get any easier than that to assemble! If you're wanting a rack that's unbelievably simple to install and remove, the Thule OutWay, part # TH45JV is the rack you'll want. Most bike racks attach to the vehicle using 6 straps and adjustment buckles. This arrangement is pretty clumsy and isn't very easy to use. However, the OutWay uses only 2 rubber coated straps to secure the rack. This allows the rack to be installed or removed...

    If you click the provided link, you can see he trunk mount racks that are a fit for your 2010 Honda Accord 4 Door Sedan. For frequent use, I'd recommend the Thule Passage, part # TH910XT. The Passage uses sturdy rubber cradles to secure the bikes to the rack and does feature anti sway cradles to keep the bikes still during transport.

  • Options for Carrying Two Bikes with 2003 Jeep Grand Cherokee
    There are two options for carrying bikes on the rear of your 2003 Grand Cherokee, a trunk mount and a hitch mounted option. The trunk mount would attach to the liftgate of the vehicle. Of the various trunk mounted options that are available for your Grand Cherokee (see link), I would recommend the Thule OutWay, part # TH45JV. While most trunk mounted bike racks use 6 straps that need to be adjusted each time the rack is installed or removed, the OutWay uses only 2 rubber coated straps...

  • 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...
