Trunk Mounted Bike Rack for 2011 Nissan Versa Hatchback with Spoiler

Question:

Hi, I am looking for a trunk mounted bike rack that would be a great fit for my 2011 Nissan Versa Hatchback. It does have a spoiler on it and I have been hearing different things on the internet when it comes to getting a trunk mounted bike rack for this specification. Ive been looking at the Thule Passage 2 Bike Carrier based on another users question on this site. Hers was a 2013 Nissan Versa with a spoiler, but there was no mention of it being a hatchback or not. I thought Id ask you guys to make sure I get one that fits my specifications.

The trunk rack that would work best on your 2011 Nissan Versa hatchback is the Yakima FullBack # Y02634 bike rack which is designed to work with most vehicles with spoilers and is confirmed to fit your Versa hatchback.

However, since your vehicle has a soft bumper, I would recommend going with a hitch and hitch mounted bike rack since this combination will not contact the vehicle at all.

For a hitch you will want the Curt Class 1 Hitch # C11348. For a bike rack the most popular one we offer is the Swagman XTC-2 bike rack part # S64670. Check out the review video I attached.
