Recommended Trailer Hitch for a 2020 Mazda 3 Hatchback for Bike Rack
Question:
I need a way to carry our bikes using my 2020 Mazda 3 hatchback. I want to use a hitch rack but don't want to do a bunch of mods for the hitch. What's your input?

Expert Reply:
The trailer hitch I recommend for a 2020 Mazda 3 Hatchback is the Curt Trailer Hitch Receiver part # C98BR. This hitch is a custom bolt-on fit with no major modifications required. The instillation process should only take around thirty minutes to an hour. There are also no special tools required either so you should be able to install this hitch yourself without issue.
If you will be using the trailer hitch for a bike rack, I recommend taking a look at the Saris Freedom 2 Bike Platform Rack part # SA4412B as it can accommodate bikes with all kinds of different frames and it is super lightweight at only 22.5 lbs so it's easy to take on and off the vehicle. In fact, this is actually the same bike rack in the photo.
