Fit of Thule TH903202 EasyFold Bike Rack w/ Ecohitch 306-X7192 on 2014 Toyota Prius V
The EcoHitch # 306-X7192 is a confirmed fit for your 2014 Toyota Prius V. When we installed the hitch on a 2016 Prius V, we found that the hitch was recessed under the vehicle so that the hitch pin hole in the receiver tube was 4 inches away from the furthest rearward point of the back bumper. Since the closest part of the bike rack to its hitch pin hole is 7 inches, you'll have plenty of clearance for the # TH903202 Thule EasyFold bike rack to fit perfectly. The hitch, rack and vehicle...

Which Hitch Will Fit a 2015 Toyota Prius Four
I was able to confirm with my contact over at Curt that the Curt # C11276 will fit on the 2015 Prius Four that you've got; it's really just a sub-model of the Prius and he was able to confirm through their internal fit guide that this hitch will fit this vehicle as well. For a ball mount you'll want to use the Curt Class II Drawbar - 2-5/8" Rise, 3-1/4" Drop - 7-1/4" Long - 3,500 lbs # C45521, which requires a hitch ball with a 3/4" diameter like the # 19258 (2" hitch ball) or # 19256 (1-7/8"...

Can I Use the 400XT Feet on a 2012 Prius V?
I have a solution for you. Unfortunately, even though the Thule Aero - Roof Rack Support Feet TH400XT feet are compatible with your 2012 Toyota Prius V, I confirmed with my contact at Thule that the fit kit 2124 and older-style crossbars LB50 that are needed for the Thule Aero - Roof Rack Support Feet # TH400XT on your vehicle are discontinued. The reason why the newer squarebars will not work with the Thule Aero Feet is because the older bars have channels in them that were designed to...

Will a Thule Roof Rack From a 2015 Honda Fit Work on a 2012 Toyota Prius V or What Roof Rack Will
Unfortunately, there is not a way to transfer that roof rack from a 2015 Honda Fit to a 2012 Toyota Prius V with a naked roof. I reached out to the manufacturer to verify this. That foot pack will not fit the Prius and there is not a foot pack compatible with both those crossbars and the Prius. If you are wanting a roof rack for your 2012 Toyota Prius V with naked roof, you will need to get a complete new roof rack. 2012 Toyota Prius v Roof Rack by Thule - Thule WingBar Evo Crossbars...

Large Cargo Carrier For 2012 Toyota Prius V
I checked with every rack manufacturer and there are zero roof racks that fit your 2012 Toyota Prius v with a moonroof, so in order to carry cargo, you'll need a trailer hitch receiver, cargo carrier, and cargo bag. For a large cargo carrier you'll need a 2" hitch, and the only option for that is one from EcoHitch, the EcoHitch Hidden Trailer Hitch Receiver # 306-X7192. This will allow you to use a 24" x 60" cargo carrier - the largest available - the Reese Cargo Carrier for 2" Hitches...

Recommend Ball Mount For Towing Light Trailer With 2014 Prius V With Draw-Tite Hitch 24967
We have not had a chance to install the Class I Draw-Tite Sportframe Trailer Hitch Receiver part # 24967 but we were able to install the Draw-Tite on a 2016. The ground clearance with the hitch installed on the 2016 was 12-1/4" which will most likely be the same on your 2014 Prius V give or take if there is a tire size variance. Please keep in mind the Class I hitch is only capable of towing 200 lbs tongue weight. You will need a ball mount with at least a 1-3/4" rise if you install the...

Recommended 4-Way to 5-Way Vehicle Connector Adapter

Towing Capacity of a 2012 Toyota Prius V
According to the owner's manual for your 2012 Toyota Prius V, "Toyota does not recommend towing a trailer with your vehicle. Toyota also does not recommend the installation of a tow hitch or the use of a tow hitch carrier for a wheelchair, scooter, bicycle, etc. Your vehicle is not designed for trailer towing or for the use of tow hitch mounted carriers." If you choose to do so anyway you will need a trailer hitch, wiring harness, and ball mount/hitch ball. For this, I recommend using...

There are quite a few different roof rack systems for your 2016 Toyota Prius v with a bare roof, and I included a link for all of the roof rack systems confirmed to fit your vehicle for you to take a look at.

Is The Hollywood Racks Destination 2 Bike Rack E-Bike Compatible?
The Hollywood Racks Destination # HLY94FR has a 35 pound per-bike weight limit. So, it isn't going to work with your e-bike. What you really need is a rack like the Swagman Current 2 # S64678. This bike rack is made for E-Bikes and has 60lbs PER BIKE! This is a massive difference compared to the Hollywood Racks Destination. The Swagman rack will bevery happy hauling an E-Bike.

Will the EcoHitch # 306-X7192 and Swagman E-Spec # S94FR Work on a 2012 Toyota Prius V
Since the EcoHitch Hidden Trailer Hitch Receiver # 306-X7192 is a Class III hitch with a 2" receiver you most certainly can use it with the Swagman E-Spec # S94FR to carry your two 50 lb bikes. I attached a review video of the EcoHitch for you. EcoHitch set the difficulty for this installation at a 9 out of 10 so if you aren't very comfortable with working on vehicles then you would want to take it to your local shop to have them perform the installation. One thing that needs to be noted...

Will the Thule Passage 2 Trunk Mounted Bike Rack fit on a 2012 Prius V with Spoiler
As long as you do not exceed the weight capacity for the bike rack the spoiler of your 2012 Toyota Prius V should have no problem supporting the weight of your bikes when using the Thule Passage 2 # TH910XT. However, you should note that a lot of the weight of the carrier will be on the bottom feet of the carrier. It would not just be the spoiler bearing all of the weight of the rack and bikes. If you plan on carrying any womens or alternative framed bikes you may also be interested in...
