Compatibility of Thule T2 Bike Rack with 2016 Toyota Prius
Question:
Will the tow hitch have enough clearance space to fit Thule T2 bike rack?
asked by: Jimmy
Expert Reply:
For your 2016 Toyota Prius, I recommend the Draw-Tite Sportframe Trailer Hitch Receiver - Custom Fit - Class I - 1-1/4" # 24944. The distance from the hitch pin hole to outer most part of the bumper is about 3 inches. The Thule T2 Classic 2 Bike Platform Rack - 1-1/4" Hitches - Tilting # TH9045 when folded for storage will only give you about 1/2 inch of clearance. The Thule T2 Pro XTR # TH23JV is also compatible and will give you about 2 inches of clearance when folded, so it will be a better fit.
