Expert Answers about Volvo XC60


  • Roof Rack Recommendation for 2014 Volvo XC60 Without Factory Roof Rails
  • For your 2014 Volvo XC60 with naked roof, I recommend the Rhino-Rack Vortex Aero Roof Rack System. # RRVA126B-2 for the Vortex Aero Bars, # RRRLKVA the Rhino-Rack 2500 Series Legs, and # DK246 the custom-fit kit for the Volvo XC60. The Vortex Aero bar will provide for a quieter ride as well as a stylish low-profile look for your vehicle. I have attached an installation video of the Rhino-Rack Vortex Aero Rook Rack on a 2014 Volvo XC60 for you to review.

  • Trunk Mounted Bike Rack Compatible With 2016 Volvo XC60
  • We don't have any trunk mounted Thule bike rack fits for the 2016 Volvo XC60. I reached out to Thule and they said it is a spoiler issue. You are correct that the strap is basically the same for other models and even different companies, but Thule will not confirm the fit of the # TH65JV or the # TH45JV you mentioned. For a trunk mounted option that is a confirmed fit, I recommend the Yakima FullBack 2 Bike Rack - Trunk Mount - Adjustable Arms # Y02634. This rack has an adjustable interlocking...

  • Roof Rack Recommendation for 2017 Volvo XC60 to Carry Thule Hullavator
  • To install the Thule Hullavator part # TH898 on the roof of your 2017 Volvo XC60 will require a roof rack that has bars that hang past the feet of the rack at least 4 inches. For that Thule recommends the WingBar Evo Roof Rack part # TH711200, # TH710601, and # TH186015 which gives you a set of crossbars that are aerodynamically shaped which allows for minimal wind noise and also a very secure base for the Hullavator to install.

  • Hitch and Cargo Carrier for 2019 Volvo XC60 to Carry Rollator
  • We have hitch mounted cargo carriers that would work well for you like with the Reese part # PS10401-10402 which has a ramp built into it which you could use to help roll the rollator up onto it. Or if you prefer something without a ramp that is priced lower we also have the etrailer cargo carrier part # e98874 which is also lighter weight. You would need a hitch installed on your 2019 Volvo XC60 like the Curt part # C53HR which is a confirmed fit that is mostly hidden that has plenty...

  • Can Weight Distribution Be Used On a 2018 Volvo XC60
  • The 2018 Volvo XC60 cannot use a weight distribution system regardless of trailer hitch as the vehicle is not rated for this. These systems are typically excluded from unibody frames like that on the Volvo XC60. The best trailer hitch option available is the Stealth Hitches Hidden Trailer Hitch Receiver part # SH87FRT. This option, although expensive, is a complete kit that comes with everything you need and has a completely hidden install while not in use for a 100% factory appearance....

  • Can I Tow My Geo Pro 15TB Travel Trailer With My 2018 Volvo XC60
  • I can get you setup to tow your travel trailer with your 2018 Volvo XC60. The answer to your first question is no, you cannot use a hitch receiver adapter to tow. I did check your owner's manual and your vehicle is rated to tow up to 3,500 lbs with a brake controller. (3,280 lbs if you will be towing 1,000m or higher, above sea level.) As a result, you should not have any problems towing the Geo Pro 15TB travel trailer. In order to tow your travel trailer you will need a hitch and a ball...

  • Trailer Hitch and Invisible Brake Controller for 2019 Volvo XC60
  • The Stealth Hitch part # SH87FRT that you referenced would be a great option that includes trailer wiring that ties into the factory wiring of your 2019 Volvo XC60. Then for an invisible brake controller setup the Curt Echo In-Line part # C79DR would be perfect for you. This installs by plugging inline with the trailer wiring connector and once synced to your smart phone is ready to tow and doesn't put anything on your dash.

  • Quiet Roof Rack for a 2015 Volvo XC60 and Cargo Box
  • For your 2015 Volvo XC60 with the flush side rails you can use a Thule AeroBlade Edge roof rack, # TH7602-TH7603 with fit kit 4006. These are going to be the quietest bars and also produce less drag for a lower impact on gas mileage. The AeroBlade Ege bars are 3-1/8 inches wide and 1-1/8 inches tall so you can use those dimensions to determine if the cargo box hardware will fit around the bars. If the box hardware will not fit the above bar dimensions then you can go with a SquareBar...

  • Recommended Trailer Hitch To Carry Bike Rack With 2020 Volvo XC60 T8
  • To carry a hitch mounted bike rack with your 2020 Volvo XC60 T8 I recommend the Stealth Hitches Hidden Rack Receiver - Custom Fit - 2" # SH87FR. This hitch has a 600lb tongue weight rating which is plenty for a bike rack, and the receiver can be removed so when you are not needing to carry your bikes the hitch will be completely invisible. Keep in mind that this receiver is designed for hitch accessories like a cargo carrier or bike rack only, and cannot be used for a ball mount to tow...

  • Distance From Center Of Hitch Pin Hole To Back Of Receiver of Draw-Tite Trailer Hitch 76116
  • I would be happy to help! I had our warehouse measure the Draw-Tite Trailer Hitch Receiver # 76116 you were looking at and it measures 4-7/8" from the center of the hitch pin hole to the back of the receiver as shown in the included diagram. For a hitch pin alignment collar you will need the either the 2" # e98942 or the 1-1/4" # e58ZR. I included videos of the products mentioned for you to take a look at.

  • Bike Rack Recommendation for Carrying E-Bike with Fenders
  • The RockyMounts SplitRail LS 2 Bike Platform Rack # RKY11404 that you referenced is a great bike rack but it's not ideal for a full fendered bike like your e-bike due to how it attaches to the bikes by grabbing the front tire which is where your fender would be. A much better option would be the Thule EasyFold XT part # TH903202 which uses a frame clamp instead that was designed for the often-times unique shape of e-bike frames. It also comes with a ramp that pulls out which makes loading...

  • Recommended Trailer Hitch for 2018 Volvo XC60
  • We sure do! For your 2018 Volvo XC60 I recommend the Stealth Hitch # SH87FR if you mainly intend to use it for a bike rack or a cargo carrier. If you intend to tow with your Volvo, then I recommend the # SH87FRT which is the same hitch, but also comes with everything that you need for towing a trailer. You will also want to verify the towing limits of your vehicle by checking your copy of the owner's manual. You will just need to follow whichever limit is lower, the vehicle's or the...

  • Recommended Trailer Hitch For Carrying A Bike Rack On A 2014 Volvo XC60
  • I can definitely recommend a hitch for your 2014 Volvo XC60, but it will be a Class III hitch as there are no Class II hitches offered for your vehicle. This is due to the size and ability of your vehicle to tow as a Class II hitch would end up being severely underrated. With that being said, a Class III hitch, like the Curt # 13268, will be great for carrying a bike rack or cargo carrier. This is rated up to 400 pounds of tongue weight, which will actually exceed that of your XC60, which...

  • Recommended Bike Rack to Carry 2 e-Bikes on 2019 Volvo XC60
  • We've got a great solution for you that would accommodate your 52 lb bike perfectly. The Yakima OnRamp, part # Y36FR would handle 2 e bikes weighing up to 66 lbs each. The rack includes an integrated ramp that makes loading heavier bikes easy. The rack can tilt rearward for easier cargo access, and holds the bikes by the seat post tube, so it works with alternative framed bikes and bikes with fenders. The rack also includes a cable lock to secure the bikes to the rack. A hitch lock is...

  • Hitch and Bike Rack Recommendation for 2013 Volvo XC60 for Carrying 2 Bikes
  • The benefits of a trunk mount are lower cost, no additional mount is needed, and they can store easier since they take up less space than many trailer hitch mount racks. Trunk mount bike racks are limited to 2 or 3 bike models, they carry the bikes closer to the vehicle than a hitch mount, and the rack must make constant contact with the vehicle. It is possible for the bike rack to scratch the vehicle paint if the rack and vehicle are dirty during installation. A hitch mounted rack is...

  • Recommended Cargo Bag for a 2017 Volvo XC60
  • For your 2017 Volvo XC60, I recommend taking a look at the Rightline Gear Sport 2 Rooftop Cargo Bag part # RL100S20. The Gear Sport 2 will be an excellent option for you as it does not require any crossbars or side rails for installation but will also work with them as well. The Gear Sport 2 offers up to 15 cu ft of storage space. I have attached a review video for you as well.

  • Easy to Load Hitch Trike Rack for TerraTrike Rover
  • The best option we have for a trike carrier for your 2017 Volvo XC60 is going to be the Hollywood Racks Sport Rider Trike Carrier # HR1000Z-R-TRKADP. Platform bike racks like this are the easiest to load and unload bikes with so this platform rack that was specifically designed for carrying trikes like yours would be your best option. If you wanted to add locks to the rack you'd then also need the # HRLHPTC and you'd be set. If you don't have a hitch you'll also want one like the Draw...

  • Is Curt Hitch C92WR same as 13484
  • Our Curt hitch part # C92WR is the same as their part number 13484. I am not sure where you saw this hitch as compatible with weight distribution but I checked just now and it is not. None of the hitches we offer for your 2021 Volvo XC60 are rated for us with WD.

  • Recommended Bike Rack for 2 Electra Townie Bikes on 2016 Volvo XC60 with 2 inch Trailer Hitch
  • To transport your 2 Electra Townie bikes with the 2 inch trailer hitch on your 2016 Volvo XC60, I recommend looking at the Kuat Transfer V2 Bike Platform Rack # KU74FR. This is a great, platform-style rack that will make for easy loading and unloading of your bikes. It can be tilted away from your vehicle, with the bikes still loaded, for easy rear cargo access. I like this particular style rack for your bikes because the Electra Townies have a unique top tube that sits very low, which...
