Expert Answers about Toyota Prius c


  • Hub Size and Axle Weight Rating to Fit Bearings 25580 and LM67048
  • Based on the bearing sizes # 25580 and # LM67048, there are two possible hubs that will fit. The first has a wheel bolt pattern of 6 on 5-1/2 and fits axles rated for 5,200 lbs to 6,000 lbs. This hub can be purchased with the standard hub assembly # 8-213-5UC1 or the E-Z Lube axle hub assembly # 8-213-5UC1-EZ. Your bearing combination indicates that your axle capacity is 5,200 lbs. The other hub option has a bolt pattern of 6 on 6 and fits axles rated for 6,000 lbs. This hub can be...

  • Will the Yakima RocketBox Pro 14 Fit a 2014 Toyota Prius C
  • I spoke with my contact at Yakima and we were able to determine that each foot can travel 8 inches on the Yakima RocketBox Pro 14, # Y07192. It can fit crossbar spreads of 24 to 40 inches. Crossbar spread is measured from the center of one bar to the center of the other bar. If your Prius does not already have a roof rack the most economical option for a nice quality is the Rhino-Rack roof rack using bars # RRVA106B-2, legs # RRRLKVA, and custom clamp kit # DK351.

  • Can Longer Rhino-Rack Crossbars Be Fitted on a 2018 Toyota Prius c
  • It looks like the Rhino-Rack crossbars that fit your 2018 Toyota Prius c have the 42" length. Sometimes you can use slightly larger or smaller Rhino-Rack crossbars but since you're wanting to use 54" crossbars that are 12" longer than what fits your vehicle we'll need to find you a different system. and for that I recommend Yakima JetStream system as it's the only roof rack system that doesn't have restrictions on upgrading the crossbars. Here are the parts you need: 50" JetStream Crossbars...

  • Recommended Trailer Hitch Receiver and Vehicle Wiring Harness For a 2013 Toyota Prius C?
  • I recommend the EcoHitch Hidden Trailer Hitch Receiver # 306-X7194 for your 2013 Toyota Prius C. The Curt # C11276 you found will not fit your particular Prius C. The EcoHitch has the larger 2" receiver allowing for a much larger selection of hitch mounted accessories. It is best to install the Curt T-Connector Vehicle Wiring Harness # C56275 when you install the receiver. This will give you a 4-way flat connector. This is the most common connector used on small trailers you might tow....

  • We have a confirmed fit for your Toyota Prius C in the Draw-Tite Sportframe Trailer Hitch Receiver # 24971 or the Curt # C11484. These hitches are confirmed to fit model years 2012-2017. If you need a ball mount, I recommend the Sportframe Drawbar 2-1/8" Rise or 2-3/4" Drop 2000 lb Kit # 3593 along with a ball mount like # 19256 for a 1-7/8 inch ball or # 19258 for a 2 inch ball.

  • Will Thule Passage Trunk Rack Fit 2013 Toyota Prius c
  • We checked with Thule and the Passage trunk rack part # TH910XT that you referenced is a confirmed fit. With this trunk rack, and all trunk racks in general, you can't open the rear door when the bike rack is installed. Reason is the the struts that hold the rear door open are can't handle the weight of the rack and the clips for the rack will most likely prevent the door from opening without it binding up. If you plan on carrying any womens or alternative framed bikes without horizontal...

  • 2014 Toyota Prius c Compatibility with the Kuat Transfer V2 3-Bike Rack
  • As long as you have a 2" hitch receiver on your 2014 Toyota Prius c, like the EcoHitch # 306-X7194, you'll be just fine using the Kuat Transfer V2 Bike Rack for 3 Bikes # KU24FR. The other hitches for your Prius c are rated for a Class I application so I would only stick with this in the 3-bike configuration and avoid using the add-on to convert this into the 4-bike carrier. Attached are review videos for both the EcoHitch and the Transfer V2 bike rack.

  • Trunk and Hitch Bike Carrier Options for 2013 Toyota Prius C
  • The Thule OutWay 2 trunk-mount rack # TH45JV is a solidly-built quality unit whose sturdy construction results in about a 19-lb weight. On smaller and lighter vehicles like your Prius C the sheet metal may not be strong enough to handle this weight along with the weight of your loaded bikes. This is why this carrier is not recommended for your car. We do offer other trunk racks whose lighter weight makes them a better choice. The link provided will let you select the version of the Prius...

  • Recommended Ball Mounts Compatible with 2" EcoHitch Hidden Receiver # 306-X7194 On a 2015 Prius c
  • The EcoHitch Hidden Trailer Hitch Receiver # 306-X7194 for your 2015 Toyota Prius c has a 2" receiver that we measured to have a hitch height of 11-1/2". With this you can use either a fixed ball mount like the Curt # C45100 that has a 6" rise which would fit on a trailer with a hitch height near 15-1/2". You will need either a 1-7/8" # C40002 or 2" # 40038 ball. If you intend to pull different trailers that can have different hitch heights an Adjustable Ball Mount # BWTS10038B will allow...

  • Toyota Prius C 2015 Yakima SkyBox Compatibility
  • In order for the Yakima SkyBox NX 16 Roof Cargo Box - 16 cu ft - Black Carbonite, part # Y95AV, to fit your 2015 Toyota Prius 5 you need 47" of space between the front bars and the edge of your rear hatch. If you have this distance, you will be able to open the rear hatch without it hitting the rear of the roof top cargo box. In order to measure this distance, you have to install your Rhino roof rack. The rack consists of; Rhino-Rack Vortex Aero Crossbars - Aluminum - Silver - 41" Long...

  • Will Thule WingBars Work With Rhino Rack Or Yakima Towers?
  • I am sorry to say that the Thule Wingbars are not compatible with Rhino Rack and Yakima towers. Roof rack manufacturers make their parts to only be compatible with their product line, so if you have Thule bars, you will need to use Thule towers and fit kit as well. I see that you were looking at parts for a 2016 Toyota Prius C. Unfortunately, we do not offer a Thule fit kit for your vehicle at this time. So your best bet would be to go with a full Yakima or Rhino Rack setup. Personally,...

  • Will the Saris Solo Bike Carrier Work WIth An All City Space Horse Bike And A 2015 Toyota Prius C?
  • Yes, since your All City Space Horse bike only weighs 25-lbs, and the Saris Solo Bike Carrier # SA102 has a maximum carrying capacity of 35-lbs, you will be well within the limit and it'll work great for you! This rack also has soft rubber, anti-sway cradles to prevent any bike-to-car contact, is made in the USA, and will easily store in your trunk or garage due to it's compact size.

  • What are my Options for Bike Racks for a 2017 Toyota Prius C?
  • For your 2017 Toyota Prius C, a hitch mounted rack requires installing a trailer hitch onto your vehicle, but adds flexibility to your vehicle's abilities to haul loads in addition to conveniently carrying your bikes.

  • Can Thule Passage Trunk Bike Rack Be Used With Lightweight Electric Bike On Prius?
  • Trunk bike racks are not typically recommended for electric bikes due to weight capacity issues, however, it seems as though you may be able to reduce the weight of your ebike down to the 35lb capacity of the Thule Passage Trunk Bike Rack for 2 Bikes # TH910XT. If you are able to reduce the weight down to 35lbs then you will also need to use an adapter bar like # RRRBCA021 since it is a step through bike. I attached demonstration videos for you to check out.
