- EcoHitch Stealth Trailer for 2019 Volkswagen e-Golf that Has Both Hitch Size Lower Assemblies
- I spoke with my contacts at EcoHitch and we came up with a solution that will work great for what you are wanting. If you order the EcoHitch # 306-X7375 you'd have a 2 inch hitch for your 2019 Volkswagen e-Golf and if you order the part # EH54FR you'd have the lower 1-1/4 inch hitch opening from the # 306-X7376 and you'd have ability to use either hitch opening assembly based on your application.

- I did see online where someone said they installed the Curt hitch # C11412 on a 2017 Volkswagen e-Golf and it worked great although Curt does not officially list it as a fit. I would assume it would fit and work great though.

- The 11355 was discontinued some years ago, likely due to the e-Golf no longer being made, and there is not a hitch that fits your 2015 Volkswagen e-Golf. You can still carry a bike with this car, but you'll need a trunk-mounted bike rack. The best option for that is from Yakima:
- Yakima FullBack 2 Bike Rack # Y02634
The FullBack # Y02634 is great for a number of reasons, starting with its strong anti-sway cradles and ratcheting straps which secure your bikes at three different points....
view full answer... - Will Using An Adapter Sleeve Reduce My Tongue Weight Capacity
- No, using a reducer sleeve like the # RKY84MR will not reduce your tongue weight capacity. The reduction of weight capacity only applies to an extension. With extensions you are bringing the center of weight farther from the hitch, which exaggerates the downward force on the hitch. You do not have to worry about that with an adapter sleeve, since the center of weight is not being moved.

- With a roof rack installed on your 2019 Volkswagen e-Golf like the Thule square bar rack part numbers # TH712400, # TH710501, and # TH145010 you can carry a kayak and paddleboard but you'd need to have a j-style kayak carrier installed on the rack like with the # e98878 which would give you the room to carry the paddleboard like with the carrier # TH846000 you mentioned. The j-style carriers hold the kayaks up and out from the bars to free up more space.
view full answer... - Best Trailer Hitch Receiver and Bike Rack For Carrying 2 E-Bikes With 2018-2019 VW e-Golf
- For a 2018-2019 Volkswagen e-Golf I recommend the EcoHitch Stealth Trailer Hitch Receiver # 306-X7375. We do not show any receiver hitches confirmed to fit the 2016, 2017 and 2020 model years for the e-Golf. The EcoHitch has a removable receiver that will hide your receiver when not in use. The receiver is rated for up to 300lbs of tongue weight but be sure to not exceed any limits given by VW for your vehicle.
For a bike rack I recommend the Thule EasyFold XT Bike Rack # TH903202. This...
view full answer... - Trailer Hitch Fit for 2019 Volkswagen e-Golf
- There are a pair of trailer hitches that fit your 2019 Volkswagen e-Golf that you can install which will allow you to grab your bikes, throw them on the rack and go.
The hitches that fit are the EcoHitch Stealth Trailer Hitch Receiver - 1-1/4" # 306-X7376 and the EcoHitch Stealth Trailer Hitch Receiver - 2" # 306-X7375.
Of these two options I very highly recommend going with the latter option that has a 2" receiver because a larger receiver means more options for bike racks if you are...

- I have a great bike solution for your 2019 Volkswagen e-Golf but none of the trunk mounted racks are confirmed to fit your vehicle. Instead we have a hitch mounted bike rack solution which will give you a much more secure attachment compared to a trunk mount and also doesn't touch any painted surfaces of the vehicle. You'll need to install a hitch like with the Draw Tite part # 24979 and then you'll be able to carry a rack like the Thule Camber 2 bike rack part # TH9058. This is a lighter...
view full answer... - Can Kuat NV 2.0 be Used in EcoHitch of 2019 Volkswagen e-Golf
- The 2 inch EcoHitch part # 306-X7375 that fits your 2019 Volkswagen e-Golf is a very stout hitch like you noticed and would easily carry 2 e-bikes with a Kuat NV 2.0 part # NV22G. On vehicles without stated tongue weight capacities the best we can advise is to use good judgment and definitely stay under the weight capacity of the hitch and you'd be fine. We have not yet had the chance to use this hitch or rack on a e-Golf like yours.

- While you can carry a trio of bikes on your 2015 Volkswagen e-Golf convertible, there is no way to use a trunk-mounted bike rack on the vehicle, so to carry three bikes you will need to add a trailer hitch receiver and 3-bike rack.
For the hitch receiver, there are two options from EcoHitch, with the only difference being the receiver size; one with a 1-1/4" receiver # 306-X7310, or my recommended option, the 2" receiver EcoHitch Hidden Trailer Hitch Receiver # 306-X7309.

- The EcoHitch # 306-X7375 that you referenced weighs 35 lbs total. It's up to you what you'd want to do with the bumper beam. You could recycle it, hold onto it for when you go to sell the vehicle, put it in a corner of your garage and let it collect dust for years like what I do with everything...
I attached an install video for this hitch for you to check out as well.

- I have a recommendation as I do not see any aftermarket manufacturers who created a receiver for your 2016 Volkswagen e-Golf. You should be able to take your VW to a local fabrication shop to have a receiver created. We have the Weld-On Receiver # E17 they can use to fabricate for you a 2" receiver opening for carrying hitch mounted accessories.
The ZCI Circuit Protected Vehicle Wiring Harness # 119250KIT will allow you to add a 4-way flat wiring connection without having to splice into...
