Trailer Hitch for 2020 Toyota Prius for Carrying Heavier E-Bike Rack
Question:
I need a 2 trailer hitch for a 2020 Toyota Prius so that I can attach a Hollywood bike rack. All of the hitches for this car that you have are 1 1/2. Can you suggest what I could use, please? The bike rack that I want to use requres a 2 hitch - it carries two heavy electric bicycles up to 200 lbs. Thanks,

Expert Reply:
The 2 inch hitch size is typically only used on heavier duty vehicles like trucks and SUVs whereas the Prius might be the lightest duty vehicle out there which is why only Class I 1-1/4 inch hitches were made for it like the Draw Tite part # 24966. We do have Class I compatible E-bike racks though like the Thule EasyFold XT part # TH903202 which was made for the higher weights of the E-bikes and even comes with a ramp setup as well.
