Recommended Trunk Mount 2-Bike Carrier For 2013 Toyota RAV4
Question:
Hello, I need a two bike over the trunk bike rack for a 2013 Rav 4, ideally less then 200. I know there are several thule racks including the passage, gateway and archway that would work for this car. I am very nervous about the plastic piece on the back of the car being able to support the bikes. Which rack do you think is hte best? I am open to Yakima or other brands as well.

We do offer several bike racks that are designed to fit your RAV4 that will hold 2 bikes that weigh up to 35-lbs each.
I recommend the Hollywood Racks Over-the-Top Bike Carrier for Vehicles w/ Spoilers, part # HRF2. The upper frame of this bike rack extends up and over the spoiler of your RAV4.
Another rack I recommend is the Yakima FullBack, part # Y02634. This 2-bike lightweight carrier weighs just 21 lbs and has a weight capacity of 35-lbs for each bike. It uses 4 straps with hooks and cam buckles to secure it to the back of your vehicle instead of 6 straps that so many bike racks use. The rack is easily installed by following the included fit guide for your vehicle. The Fullback comes with locks for both the rack and the bikes.
I have attached a product review video you can check out.
