Expert Reply:
Curt Trailer Hitch, # C11200, is a confirmed fit for the 2013 Lexus CT200h. You will want to check the owner's manual for your specific vehicle before adding a trailer hitch and any accessories.
If you want a hitch bike rack, we have a few dozen class I-compatible racks to choose from, click the provided link to see them. To maintain the hitch warranty, Curt requires the use of a stabilization strap like part # 18050 on any non trailer load carried by the hitch.
The Thule Helium Aero 2 Bike Rack, part # TH9042PRO is a good choice. Its aluminum construction is lightweight which is an important consideration due to the low tongue weight capacity of the Class I receiver. A good lower cost option would be the Swagman Titan, part # S63400. The Titan is a bit heavier than the Helium, but has many of the same features like anti-sway cradles and an integrated locking cable.
If you prefer a platform-type rack, the Swagman XTC2, part # S64670 is a great choice. The XTC2 uses an angled shank to provide more ground clearance, which can be important on smaller vehicles.

If you intend to do some light towing you can use # C45572 for a Curt Class II Euro style drawbar with 2" Ball, or part # C45571 for a Curt Class II Euro style drawbar with 1-7/8" ball.
