Expert Answers about Honda HR-V


  • Will The EcoHitch Hidden Hitch Fit The Honda HR-V EX AWD?
  • I took a look at the EcoHitch Hidden Trailer Hitch Receiver # 306-X7322 for your 2022 Honda HR-V, and I confirmed through TorkLift that this hitch will fit your 2022 Honda HR-V just fine. This hitch has a maximum towing capacity of 2,000lbs, a maximum tongue weight capacity of 300lbs, has an easy bolt-on installation, and due to the hidden cross-tube design, you will get a clean "from the factory" look. As a rule of thumb, you're going to want to check your owners manual for your maximum...

  • Does Hidden Hitch Fit 2018 Honda HR-V 2 Wheel Drive
  • The EcoHitch Hidden Trailer Hitch Receiver - Custom Fit - 2" # 306-X7322 is a confirmed fit for your 2018 Honda HR-V 2-wheel drive. I confirmed this with ecoHitch as well. To install this hitch, it requires that a small square be cut from the facia underneath the vehicle. You can see this at the 8:05 mark in the attached install video. It is very common to have to trim facia when installing hitches. For a bike rack, I recommend the Thule EasyFold XT Bike Rack # TH903202. Check out...

  • Which Roof-Mounted Bike Rack Is Best For A Bike With A Front Fender?
  • A bike rack that uses a wheel-mount design, such as the Rhino-Rack Hybrid Roof Bike Rack - Wheel Mount - Clamp On - Aluminum # RRRBC050, is not ideal for bikes with fenders. This is because the hook that clamps around the front wheel would likely interfere with a fender and possibly cause damage. Instead, you will want to go with a frame-mount carrier such as the Thule ProRide XT Roof Bike Rack - Frame Mount - Clamp On or Channel Mount - Aluminum # TH598004. This carrier clamps around...

  • Roof Rack for 2016 Honda HR-V Compatibility with Car Top Cargo Roof Box
  • For your 2016 Honda HR-V with the flush mounted side rails, the Rhino Rack roof rack is no longer a confirmed fit from the manufacturer. For a confirmed fit I recommend the Inno Aero roof rack consisting of # INXB130-2, # INXS450, # INTR159. This roof rack is compatible with theTrunx Rooftop Cargo Carrier - 9 cu ft - Black # TRX44FR when you space your crossbars 22 inches on center. This combination will work well for you.

  • Recommended Roof Rack for a 2018 Honda HR-V EX-L
  • According to my research, the EX-L models of the 2018 Honda HR-V have flush side rails therefore I recommend using the Thule AeroBlade Edge Roof Rack part # TH7602B-TH7603B and part # THKIT4067 or the Thule WingBar Evo Roof Rack part # TH711220, part # TH460R, and part # THKIT4067. These systems both have aero shaped crossbars for the least amount of drag/noise and they install into fixed mounting points which makes for a clean look. The best one for you all depends on what you will be...

  • Hitch Recommendation for a Honda HR-V With Front Wheel Drive
  • For your 2021 Honda HR-V with front wheel drive, you will definitely want to go with the Curt # C11416.This is a great hitch for your HR-V. The Curt # C11416 technically does not need the stabilizing strap # 18050, but the installation instructions say that you must use it, so I would. It does give more support when a bike rack or cargo carrier is used. You could also go with an anti-rattle device like the Roadmaster Quiet Hitch # RM-061-125 as well. This will clamp the rack or carrier...

  • Will the Thule OutWay Trunk Mount Bike Rack Fit a 2016 Honda HR-V
  • I checked with Thule and I am happy to report that you can use the OutWay trunk mount bike rack # TH45JV on your 20016 Honda HR-V! I have included a link to a video review of this bike rack for you. If you will be carrying any bikes that do not have a top frame bar that goes straight across (like a typical men's bike would) then I recommend using bike adapter bar # 64005. This will allow you to carry those bikes more level and will provide better ground clearance. I have linked a video...

  • Can I Carry Deer On Back Of 2017 Honda HR-V During Hunting Season
  • All of the hitches available for the 2017 Honda HR-V like Curt Class I hitch part # C11416 have a 200 lb tongue weight capacity. Cargo carriers are considered all tongue weight on the hitch so you would not want to exceed the 200 lb tongue weight capacity of the Class I hitch available for your vehicle to avoid damaging the hitch or the vehicle's frame. You could use a 20x47 Reed Cargo Carrier for 1-1/4" Hitches part # 63155 to transport your prize. However it weights 44 pounds. Since...

  • 3 Bike Trunk Mounted Rack That Allows Rear Access for a 2017 Honda HRV EX
  • The Saris Bones 3, part # SA801BL is a confirmed fit for the 2017 Honda HRV, however, I can't recommend opening the rear hatch with the Saris Bones or any trunk rack installed. The weight of the rack can cause the hatch to either close without warning or fall off when the hatch is open, causing damage to the bikes, rack, or vehicle. If you decide to go with the Bones I recommend a 10 foot Cable Lock, part # e98891 to improve the security of the rack and a Swagman Frame Adapter, part...

  • Will 205/65-10 Trailer Tire Fit in Place of 205/50-10 Trailer Tire
  • It can, so long as you have the right amount of clearance from the top of your tire to your fender (approximately 3 inches). A 205/65-10 trailer tire measures 20.5" in diameter and a 205/50-10 trailer tire measures 18.1" in diameter so you'll need to account for the roughly 2-1/2" of size for the larger tire (though since only half of that is on top of the tire you'll only need an extra 1-1/4" of space on top of the tire). You'll want to verify this but unless your current tire is very...

  • Thule Roof Rack and Cargo Box Recommendation for 2017 Honda HR-V w// Bare Roof
  • We can get you the best cargo box to go with a Thule roof rack for your 2017 Honda HR-V.
