How to Carry 3 Bikes on 2020 Kia Soul with One Bike Weighing 45 lbs.
Question:
Greetings, I have two questions. Does this rack fit a 2020 Kia Soul? If yes, Can I carry 1 bike weighing 45, 1 35 pounds and another for 15 pounds or does each bike need to weigh less than 30 pounds? Thx,

The Malone Hanger # MPG2139 does fit your 2019 Kia Soul but it cannot be used to carry any bikes over 33 lbs because that is what the individual cradles are rated for. We actually don't have any trunk mount rack that can carry a bike over 37.5 lbs. Since you have a bike that weighs 45 lbs, you will need the class III hitch # DT25GR and a hitch mounted rack like the RockyMounts MonoRail Bike Rack for 3 Bikes - 2" Hitches - Wheel Mount
Item # RKY10004-10005. This bike rack has a 45 per bike limit and will hold your three bikes. It weighs 72 pounds. Once you add your bikes weighing a total of 95 pounds, you will be well under the 300 pound weight capacity of the # DT25GR.
If you don't mind loading all 3 bikes on the roof, you have another option. You can use the SeaSucker # 298-BB3008. This is a super strong suction-cup rack that also has a 45 pound per bike weight limit.
