Expert Answers about Chevrolet Volt


  • Will the Thule OutWay Trunk Mount Bike Rack Fit a 2014 Chevy Volt
  • The Thule OutWay # TH45JV is a fit for your 2014 Chevy Volt. There is a next to zero chance of the rack breaking the rear window on the vehicle. Most of the weight is on the lower leg and top cables which should not be hooked to the glass. Dents are possible on any vehicle unless that vehicle has a metal bumper. I own the older 3-bike version of this rack, which was heavier, especially when loaded, and I have not had any problems with dents. If you will be carrying any bikes that do not...

  • Can Curt Stabilization Strap 18050 Be Attached To 2018 Chevy Volt In A Way That Does Not Damage Car?
  • Absolutely! We have reached out to Curt about this in the past and the Curt Stabilization Strap # 18050 can be wrapped around the bike rack and then attached to the safety chain loops. This will allow you to secure your bike rack to the Curt Trailer Hitch Receiver # C11436 you were looking at for your 2018 Chevrolet Volt. I included videos of the products mentioned for you to take a look at.

  • 2019 Subaru Crosstrek Plug-In Hybrid Compatibility with Kuat Transfer 3 Bike Rack
  • For your 2019 Subaru Crosstrek Plug-In Hybrid, if you use the Draw-Tite # 76209 as your trailer hitch you will be able to use the Kuat Transfer 3 Bike # KU24FR. The measurement from the center of the hitch pin hole on the hitch is 3 inches back from the bumper and the Kuat Transfer will be 4 inches. This will give you clearance so they will absolutely be compatible and complimentary to each other. This rack is easy to use and the design allows for the easiest loading of that third bike...

  • Will the Large Thule Motion XT Rooftop Cargo Box Fit a 2017 Chevy Volt
  • The Thule Motion XT Rooftop Cargo Box part # TH629706 is a bit large for a 2017 Chevrolet Volt. It would fit but you might not be able to open the hatch fully with the box installed. Instead, I recommend the Thule Pulse Medium Rooftop Cargo Box part # TH614 which will be the perfect size and it will allow you to open up the hatch as we have tested this ourselves.

  • Will the Thule the Gateway Bike Rack part # TH88VR fit a 2013 Chevy Volt
  • We haven't had the chance to install a trunk mounted bike rack on a 2013 Chevy Volt so we don't have any install pics or viceos, but according to Thule this is confirmed to fit your vehicle. The following fit tips are recommended: Place top clips in the gap at the front edge of the top of the trunk, hatch or door. Place lower clips in the bottom edge of trunk or hatch. Lower arm of carrier should be positioned on upper tier of bumper. If you plan on carrying any women's or alternative...

  • Can I Use the Thule Rapid Traverse Feet # TH480R On My 2013 Chevy Volt with a Bare Roof?
  • I have a great roof rack solution for you. Unfortunately, I confirmed with Thule that they currently do not have any customized roof rack components or setups that work with your 2013 Chevy Volt (with or without the Thule Rapid Traverse Feet # TH480R). However, with that being said, Inno makes a great system that fits your bare roof. For that system, you need the following components: - Inno Square Crossbars - Steel - Black - 50" Long # INB127 - Inno Feet for Square Crossbars - Naked...

  • Fitment of the Thule Pulse Medium Cargo Box # TH614 on a 2014 Chevy Volt with Vortex Aero Crossbars
  • From your photo, it looks like you have Rhino-Rack Vortex Aero crossbars like the # RRVA126B-2. With these crossbars, the Thule Pulse Medium Cargo Box # TH614 is definitely compatible on your 2014 Chevy Volt. Also, with your 27" crossbar spread, that spread is compatible with the Pulse as well. With both of these confirmations, you are good to go!

  • Fit of Thule OutWay # TH45JV on Opel Ampera
  • According to our friends at Thule, theirOutWay Trunk Mounted Bike Rack # TH45JV and TH56BV will indeed fit a 2011-12 Chevy Volt. It will work with a vehicle that has a stock spoiler. Does this mean the OutWay will fit your Opel Ampera? I took a look at the rear end of the Ampera and it appears that it is almost exactly like the Volt. The OutWay should be able to handle an electric bike as long as the weight capacity of the rack is not exceeded. The 2 bike version of the Raceway # TH45JV...

  • Can a Trailer Hitch Receiver Be Welded Onto Impact Structure Behind Rear Bumper For 2017 Chevy Volt?
  • The impact structure behind the rear bumper fascia of your 2017 Chevrolet Volt is not structurally strong enough to support a receiver. This is why instead of replacing the impact structure the available Curt # C11436, Draw-Tite # 24947 and EcoHitch # 306-X7338 mount behind the structure. The impact structure is also designed to help absorb impact in a collision while the receiver is designed to support the weight when towing or carrying additional weight. I do feel the EcoHitch is the...

  • Recommended Bike Rack for Step-Thru Electric Bike on 2013 Chevy Volt
  • None of the trunk-mounted bike racks that fit your 2013 Chevy Volt will allow you to open the trunk with the rack on. Each would also require you to use an adapter bar - which attaches to the rack - for a bike with a step-thru frame. Additionally, trunk-mounted racks are not a good option for electric bikes because they do not have the weight capacity necessary to support an electric bike. That said, there is a way for you to avoid using an adapter bar and have access to your Volt's trunk,...

  • Recommended Trunk Mounted Bike Rack to Fit a Variety of Vehicles
  • I recommend using the Yakima FullBack 3 # Y02633, which will fit on all 3 vehicles. The FullBack has adjustable arms to help keep the bikes level during travel and comes with integrated locks to allow you to secure the bikes to the rack and the rack to your vehicle. The FullBack uses an interlocking HUB that lets you adjust the base to fit the shape of your trunk or hatch, so it's go the flexibility you need in a high quality Yakima bike rack. I've linked a short review video of this...

  • What is the Best Trunk Mount Bike Rack for a 2012 Chevrolet Volt
  • The best trunk mount bike rack for a 2012 Chevrolet Volt is the Thule OutWay bike racks because they provide features and conveniences that their competition doesn't offer all in one package. The OutWay comes in a 2 bike version, # TH45JV, and a 3 bike version, # TH56BV. As far as fit is concerned, all of the trunk mount bike rack options that fit your Volt will mount in almost the same fashion. What sets the Raceway Pro apart is that is uses 2 retractable coated metal cables rather than...

  • Recommended Trailer Hitch Receiver for a 2017 Chevy Volt to Carry the Swagman Titan 2 Bike Rack
  • The trailer hitch receiver that you will want to install on your 2017 Chevrolet Volt is the Curt Trailer Hitch Receiver # C11436. This is a Class I, 1-1/4 inch hitch receiver that has a tongue weight rating of 200 lbs. You will want to check the weight rating of your Volt to see how much weight it can carry as that will most likely be the deciding factor. Since this hitch receiver requires that the bumper be removed for installation, I recommend looking into having a shop install it, but...
