Trailer Hitch Recommendation for Carrying E-Bike with 2019 Lexus IS 350
Question:
I need a hitch for my 2019 Lexus IS 350 that I want to carry an e-bike rack with. Which hitch and rack should I get? My bike is heavy so something easy to load would be ideal.

For your 2019 Lexus IS 350 the hitch I recommend is the Curt part # C11389 as it is the easiest to install option we have and will do a great job carrying an e-bike rack for your heavier bike. I attached a picture of what the hitch will look like installed on a similar vehicle as well.
For a bike rack there's only one great option for carrying an e-bike in a lower capacity 1-1/4 inch hitch like the Curt I mentioned, but it's also the best option so it works out. The rack I recommend is the Thule EasyFold XT part # TH903202 as it is rated for the heavier weights of e-bikes, has ramps that pull out which make it very easy to load/unload, and also folds down for easy storage and carrying. Check out the review video I attached for more info as well.
