Does Curt Trailer Hitch For 2021 Toyota Venza Have Clearance For Kuat NV 2.0 Bike Rack

Question:

Greetings, For the Curt C89UR for a 2021 Toyota Venza, we have a KUAT NV 2 bike rack. My question is will that hitch with that rack allow enough clearance for the rack out from the rear bumper. Thank you for your help

It sure does; the Kuat NV 2.0 Bike Rack (Gray) # NV22G and (Black) # NV22B measure 10-1/2 inches from the hitch pin hole to the closest part of the rack when folded down, and 7-1/2 inches from the hitch pin hole to the closest part of the rack when folded up.

As you can see from the accompanying photo, the measurement from the hitch pin hole to the edge of the bumper is 4-1/2 inches for the Curt hitch that fits your 2021 Toyota Venza, which is the following part number:

- Curt Trailer Hitch Receiver # C89UR

So the # C89UR will provide more than enough clearance to use the NV 2.0 to carry your bikes, or keep it in the hitch folded up when you aren't using it. The hitch has a 525 lb tongue weight capacity which is more than enough to support the NV 2.0 and two bikes, and it also has a hidden crosstube to help keep your Venza's aesthetic looking factory-like.
