What Hitch Receiver And Hitch Bike Rack Can I Install On My 2021 Hyundai Elantra

Question:

Can you please recommend a hitch receiver for my 2021 Hyundai Elantra? I am interested in carrying an ebike that weighs 50 lbs.

If your 2021 Hyundai Elantra is not a Hybrid or the N Line version, we have a solution for you. The Draw-Tite Sportframe Trailer Hitch Receiver - Custom Fit - Class I - 1-1/4", part # DT75MR, will fit your 2021 Hyundai Elantra. It is a Class I hitch receiver with a maximum tongue weight of 200 lbs and a maximum gross trailer weight of 2,000 lbs.

My hitch bike rack recommendation for your ebike is the Thule EasyFold XT Bike Rack for 2 Electric Bikes - 1-1/4" and 2" Hitches - Frame Mount, part # TH903202. This rack can carry bikes up to 65 lbs and is compatible with your 1-1/4" hitch receiver. The rack will clamp to the wheels of your ebike, making it fender friendly. It has an anti-rattle device to eliminate the movement between the hitch receiver and the hitch bike rack. You can lock this rack to your vehicle and lock the bike to the rack.

I have included product description links and a video review link below.
