4 Bike Rack Recommendation for a 2009 Kia Sportage
Question:
I need a 4 bike rack to fit my 2009 Kia Sportage
asked by: Rachel F
Expert Reply:
To carry 4 bikes at the rear of your 2009 Kia Sportage your best option would be to use a receiver hitch and a hitch mounted bike rack.
One of our most popular 4 bike racks is the Thule Hitching Post, # TH934XTR, which has anti-sway cradles to prevent damage to your bikes or the back of the vehicle and can be folded down away from the rear of the vehicle for access when out on a ride.
If you don't have a receiver hitch, the hitch I recommend for your vehicle is the Draw-Tite Class III Trailer Hitch, # 75561. This hitch will install easily with no drilling, and once installed you will have other options such as hitch mounted cargo carriers and towing with your Sportage.
