Does Hidden Hitch Fit 2018 Honda HR-V 2 Wheel Drive

Question

Question:

Hello, reading customer reviews worries me that this hitch will be fit my 2018 HRV 2 wheel drive. Please advise. Too few have been installed in any 2018 so want to make sure before I order it. Also, I am a woman almost 65 and expect to keep car, hitch and bike rack for 10 years. Which bike rack do you recommend for me. I am looking for platform2 bike- and would also like it to tilt so that I can easily access the back of 2018 HRV. Lastly, folks keep talking about having to cut plastic under car. has that been fixed for 2018 models.

The EcoHitch Hidden Trailer Hitch Receiver - Custom Fit - 2" # 306-X7322 is a confirmed fit for your 2018 Honda HR-V 2-wheel drive. I confirmed this with ecoHitch as well. To install this hitch, it requires that a small square be cut from the facia underneath the vehicle. You can see this at the 8:05 mark in the attached install video. It is very common to have to trim facia when installing hitches.

For a bike rack, I recommend the Thule EasyFold XT Bike Rack # TH903202. Check out the attached video, I think you will love it.
