Trunk Mount Bike Rack Recommendations for a 2009 Volkswagen Passat Wagon

Question:

I would like to know if there is a 2-bike rack that can work on 2009 VW Passat Wagon without a hitch, that attaches to back hatch not roof rack . Im hoping to find something that is within $200 if possible does that exist?

Yes, we do have trunk, or rear hatch, mount bike racks for the 2009 Volkswagen Passat Wagon. I have included a link to the 2-bike racks listed as a fit.

A popular option is the Thule Passage # TH910XT. I have included a link to a video review and a link to the instructions for you. If you will be carrying any bikes that do not have a top frame bar that goes straight across, I recommend using the bike adapter bar # TH982XT. This will allow you to carry those bikes more level and provide better ground clearance. I have included a link to a video showing how the adapter works.
