We have several 3-bike racks for your 2016 Toyota RAV4. If you have a trailer hitch, I recommend looking at the Thule Hitching Post Pro 4 Bike Rack, # TH934XTR. This is the most popular hitch mount bike rack among our RAV4 customers and using a 4-bike rack will give you plenty of room to load three bikes, especially if any of them have larger frames.

Another option is to use a trunk mount bike rack like the Thule OutWay 3-Bike Rack # TH56BV. I have attached a review video of this bike rack for you to check out.

If this was my choice, I would go with the hitch mounted option. A hitch mounted bike rack will keep the bikes and bike rack away from the vehicle to avoid any contact. If you are interested in this option, but don't have a trailer hitch, I recommend picking up our etrailer Class III Trailer Hitch, # e98864. This hitch comes with a great price tag and this really is the safest way to carry bikes.

I have attached a link to all of our 3-bike hitch mount bike racks for you to check out. I have also attached a link to all of the 3-bike trunk mount bike racks that will fit your RAV4.
