Recommended 2 Bike Platform Rack That Allows Rear Cargo Area Access With Bikes Loaded

Does this rack allow for rear hatch access on an SUV with bikes loaded? Thanks for your reply. Hollywood Racks Destination Bike Rack for 2 Bikes - 1-1/4 and 2 Hitches - Frame Mount Item # HLY94FR

I have another option for you but since the Hollywood Racks Destination Bike Rack for 2 Bikes - 1-1/4" and 2" Hitches - Frame Mount # HLY94FR does not tilt you would have to remove your bikes and fold down the mast to open the rear hatch on your SUV.
For a rack that does allow you to access the rear cargo area with bikes installed I recommend taking a look at the Thule EasyFold XT Bike Rack for 2 Electric Bikes - 1-1/4" and 2" Hitches - Frame Mount # TH903202 which will tilt away allowing the rear hatch to open on some SUVs, and has a weight capacity of 65 lbs per bike which is 30 lbs more than the # HLY94FR.
If you can tell me which Year/Make/Model you SUV is I would be happy to confirm if you will be able to open the rear hatch with the bikes loaded.
I included videos for each of the products mentioned for you to take a look at.
