Trunk Mount Bike Rack for a 2016 Audi A3 eTron Sportback
Question:
Does the Thule Passage 2 bike rack work on this model? 2016 Audi A3 eTron sportback

Expert Reply:
The Thule Passage # TH910XT was a fit for the 2006 Audi A3 5-door Sportback but you will need a different bike rack for your 2016 Audi A3 eTron Sportback as Thule says none of their bike racks will fit.
For a similar bike rack I recommend the Yakima FullBack # Y02634. This has adjustable arms to give you the best fit and it installs with just 4 straps which makes for a quicker/easier installation. The integrated bike and rack locks are a great addition as well since they give you some peace of mind. Please note that if any of your bikes lacks a horizontal top tube you need to use the adapter bar # Y02531 to load the bike properly.
Attached is a picture that Yakima took of this rack on a 2016 - 2018 Audi A3 with the hatchback style trunk like what you have. The installation instructions are also linked for you to check out.
