  • Trunk-mounted rack lets you carry up to 2 bicycles on the back of your Hyundai Elantra
    • Arched body fits over many types of spoilers
  • HideAway anti-sway cradles with ratcheting straps hold bikes at 3 points

  • Distance between arms (outside cradle to outside cradle): 12"
  • Distance between bikes: 7"
  • Carrier weight: 13 lbs
  • Limited lifetime warranty


Note: This dual-arm rack reduces the need for a bike frame adapter bar (sold separately) to mount a children's, women's, or alternative frame bicycle. However, to mount certain bikes or to keep your bike level on the rack, a bike adapter bar may be required. Most step-through bikes, dual-suspension bikes, and small children's bikes will require a bike adapter bar.


Thule Gateway Pro

The Gateway Pro lets you carry 2 bikes on the back of your sedan, hatchback, or van. Adjustable legs with oversize pads fit the contour of your Hyundai Elantra. Adjustable arms with HideAway anti-sway cradles keep your bikes level during transport, and they fold down for parking in tight spaces. It installs easily with 6 straps with nylon-coated hooks and a FitDial system with Hyundai Elantra-specific settings. It includes a Thule One-Key System cable lock that secure your bikes to the rack, and you can fold it flat for storage in your trunk or garage.


HideAway Anti-Sway Cradles with Ratcheting Straps

Thule Gateway Pro anti sway cradles

The Gateway Pro has HideAway anti-sway cradles that secure each bike at 3 points - twice along the top tube and once along the seat post or downtube. This helps to keep your bikes from rocking back and forth and bumping into each other, or your Hyundai Elantra. The soft rubber cradles are set 7" apart on the arms, preventing your bikes from becoming tangled on the rack. You can remove the lower straps and fold the cradles up against the arms to make it easier to slide your bikes onto the rack.


Adjustable Dual Arms

Thule Gateway Pro anti sway cradles<br class=

The Gateway Pro has adjustable arms that provide excellent support for your bikes. The built-in levers allow the arms to be adjusted up and down. Just flip the lever up, rotate the arm to the desired position, then flip the lever down to lock the arm in place. This helps to keep your bikes level on the rack and provides increased ground clearance.


Thule Gateway Pro anti sway cradles<br class=

The levers also allow you to fold down the arms when the rack is not in use and to fold the rack flat for storage.


6-Strap Installation with Fit Dial System

Thule Gateway Pro anti sway cradles<br class=

The rack installs quickly and easily with 6 nylon straps that keep it anchored in place. The steel hooks on these extra-long straps have a nylon coating to prevent scratches on your Hyundai Elantra, and the straps tighten in place with easy-to-use, backpack-style cinches.


Thule Gateway Pro Fit Dial System

The FitDial system lets you easily adjust the rack to fit the shape of your trunk, and the long, arcing tubes are designed to fit over most factory spoilers. Simply press the Quick-Fit levers and rotate the base until the centers of the levers line up with the numbers on the dials. These Hyundai Elantra-specific numbers are specified in the instructions included with the rack.


Thule Gateway Pro anti sway cradles<br class=

Holders with hook-and-loop tabs are included to bind up the excess strap length when the rack is mounted so the straps don't flap in the wind. They also keep the straps nice and neat when the rack is folded in storage.


Thule Gateway Pro foam pads

Oversized foam pads on the Gateway Pro's upper and lower bases grip your trunk or rear hatch to keep the rack firmly in place during transport. The soft padding helps prevent scratches and scuff marks on your Hyundai Elantra.


Integrated Cable Lock

Thule Gateway Pro anti sway cradles <br class=

The rack includes an integrated cable lock to secure your bikes to the rack. It has a Thule One-Key System lock cylinder that can be swapped out if you own other Thule products and want to use the same key to lock them all. The cable lock extends from the tip of the left arm, threads around your bike's frames, and secures to the arm. It retracts back into the arm when not in use.


There is also an available locking strap (sold separately) that secures the rack to your Hyundai Elantra.

Everything went smooth. I received the exact product I needed in a timely manor.



by:

Not install yet but still really great!



by:

My daughter loves it. Easy to attach and gets job done



by:

Fits my 2015 Outback great and works as advertised. I feel like the build quality is good too



by:

It's great. And the #8 setting on the angle just happens to work on our other car also so switching between cars is easy.



by:

Swift and easy purchase! Reasonable cost for the product. Shipping was free. Delivery was prompt. I would highly recommend etrailer to friends, family, and colleagues.



by:

I did my research to make sure this 3 bike rack would fit my car. Unfortunately when it’s properly attached to my Honda Accord, the 3rd bikes petals rub up against my license plate and trunk therefore scratching my paint. Contacted etrailer and sent them pics. Very unhappy that they would suggest that I only use 2 bikes so it doesn’t damage my car. Defeats spending more $ on a 3 bike rack



by:

wish thernwere an easy way to lift the arms verically so pedestrians wouldnt put their eye out.

maybe you should include small bright flags to attach the ends of the arms!



by:

Got this present for a very special good boy last year and let me tell you he loves it! Easy to install, held the bikes easily. Two thumbs up! My only complaint was that it was hard to get through that chimney.



by:

Easy to install and uninstall! Holds our bikes well! Worked perfectly on my 2018 Subaru Outback.



by:

Had some trouble with the side hooks/straps coming loose. Eventually, I took the excess strap that goes through the tightening mechanism and tied them together to keep the straps tight. That seemed to work. I held 2 adult bikes and a youth bike well though. Easy to put up and take down.



by:

We are able to transport 3 adult bikes successfully with this. It took us a while to get everything just right the first time and to make sure the bikes don't touch, but it seems to work well for our purpose. Unfortunately, one of the straps was missing in the box. We only received 8 straps instead of the required 9 straps for tying down the bikes, and I called about that right away. Hope we will get the replacement strap shipped to us soon so we don't have to resort to using a zip tie.



by:

Still working great on my Hyundai Elantra sedan! It's used mostly to carry one bike, but have used it with three bikes with no problems. Easy to put on the car, and easy to store it in the car when not in use.



by:

The product is very well made and will meet the needs of our family. The product is a gift to our daughter and her husband and will they will welcome the use of it instead of piling the bikes in the cargo area.



by:

Excellent product...made in the USA. etrailer.com was great to deal with. The communication was excellent and shipping was prompt once they received the rack from the company. I would buy it again from etrailer.com.



by:

Outstanding bike rack that is sturdy and easy to mount and use. We go to the beach and go riding every weekend now and save a ton of money by bringing our own bikes. I like the fact that the rack has a locking feature.



by:

The Thule Gateway Pro 3 does fit our Kia Sedona 2010 as promised. Three adult mountain bikes fit on the rack, but tightly, with no extra space between.



by:

etrailer customer service is the BEST. I referred the site to two other friends.

The bike rack is a great product. Following the directions it was easy to strap on. The bikes are a lot sturdier than a cheaper brand I was using before.
My only issue is that the right strap keeps slipping off. I have tightened it but it still falls off. I noticed the right bottom clip is silver and not black like the other 5.



by:

I purchased this bike rack for my Nissan Pathfinder after not being able to find a rack for months due to COVID. When I saw it I jumped at the chance to get it because of the brand name and just the opportunity to use it. This rack is sturdy and reliable. I have had it for about a year and it has not let me down. Also, the staff at etrailer was really helpful to me since I'd never purchased a bike rack before, I was confident I was doing the right thing by going with them for the purchase.



by:

It is a good bike carrier but if I had it to do again I would bite the bullet and buy a trailer hitch for my Jetta and go with a hitch mount. I believe it is more secure.

  • What Setting Do I Use for the Thule Gateway Pro 2 on a 2017 BMW X1
    I can help you with that. On the Thule Gateway Pro 2 # TH88VR you'll want to use setting 9 on the dial to get the arms of the Gateway Pro 2 into the correct positioning for your 2017 BMW X1.

  • Recommended Trunk Mount Bike Rack for 2001 Honda Accord Coupe with Spoiler
    Since you don't want a hitch I assume you aren't interested in a roof rack for the same reason so that leaves you with a trunk mount rack. A great trunk mount I like to recommend is the Saris Bones, part # SA805BL. This is a high quality, easy to install rack that's more affordable than some of the others. The arched design is great for spoilers and it's mostly made of plastic making it a lot less susceptible to rust and corrosion. It also has anti-sway cradles. The only thing I don't...

    Hey Steve, I just checked with Thule and the Passage 2 is not listed as a fit for your 2023 VW Tiguan so I don't have a fit dial number I can give you, we do have the similar Gateway Pro part # TH88VR that is a fit and would work great.

  • Recommended Trunk Mount Bike Rack for 2018 Hyundai Elantra GT Sport Hatchback
    For your 2018 Hyundai Elantra GT Sport Hatchback, I recommend the Thule Gateway Pro 2-Bike Rack # TH88VR. I checked with Thule and was able to confirm that this will fit and work great on your GT (hatchback) model Elantra. This is a really nice, 2-bike trunk rack that features long, arching body tubes designed specifically for vehicles like yours and Hold Fast cradles that will hold the bikes at 3 different points. The carrier can secure two bikes of up to 35 pounds each. I have attached...

  • Trunk Mounted Bike Rack Recommendation for 2015 Honda CR-V
    Hey Joe, so the Thule Gateway part # TH88VR is not a fit for your 2015 Honda CR-V but we do have a similar in price but much nicer trunk rack with the Yakima Fullback 3 part # Y02633 that is a fit. I really like the Fullback because it has the widest contact pad, locks for the rack and bikes, and because of it's very easy to use straps.

  • Bike Rack Solution for 2005 Volvo S60R w Body Kit
    Since you have an R model that has a body kit we can't guarantee any of the hitches we offer will fit without issue. It would appear they might fit but you'd have to cut up the body kit. Were you looking to carry a bike rack by chance? There are other options for that.

  • Will a Tour Easy Recumbent Bike Fit the Gateway Pro Bike Rack on a 2013 Ford C-Max
    Hey Francis, The Thule Gateway Pro 2 Bike Rack # TH88VR has a weight capacity of 35 lbs per bike and arms spaced apart by 12" so it will be able to handle your Tour Easy Recumbent. My only concern is the length of the bike and how much wind it will catch and how that will affect the swaying of the bike. Your best option for a bigger bike is to install the Curt Hitch # C12092 and use a bike rack like the Swagman XC-Extended Bike Rack # S64650-EXT which will secure both wheels and then...

  • Recommended Bike Carrier for 2015 Lexus RX 350
    The best way to transport bikes on your new 2015 Lexus RX 350 is to install a trailer hitch and use a hitch-mount rack. Hitch racks place the entire weight burden of the rack and bikes on the car's frame - it's strongest part - rather than on its thin sheet metal. The hatch hinge on your car is made to handle the weight of the hatch itself, but it is not really intended to also support a 70 to 100-lb load from bikes and their carrier. You can use 2-inch Class III hitch # C13143 from Curt,...

  • 2022 Hyundai Kona Trunk Mount Bike Rack Recommendation
    Hi K, thanks for reaching out! Thule actually doesn't list out any trunk rack fits for your 2022 Hyundai Kona, and while Thule doesn't post the reasons why racks don't fit, from my experience it has to do with where exactly the rack will place pressure on the vehicle. A great alternative to the Thule Gateway Pro 2 Bike Rack # TH88VR is the Yakima FullBack # Y02634. The FullBack is arguably my favorite rack we carry because of how sleek it looks and how easy it is to use. I've actually...

  • Recommended Trunk Mount Bike Rack to Carry 2 Bikes on 2018 BMW X5
    Comparing Yakima and Thule is really like comparing Nike and Adidas. When it comes to the Thule Gateway # TH88VR and the Yakima FullBack # Y02634. These are both great bike racks that include a cable lock integrated into the rack, so your bikes are secured to the rack at all times.

  • Best Way to Carry 50 lb E-Bike with a 2016 Toyota Avalon
    The Thule Gateway 2-Bike Rack # TH88VR has cradles that can only accommodate up to 35 lb bikes, which is standard for a trunk mount rack so we need to get a hitch installed on your 2016 Toyota Avalon so you can use a hitch mount platform rack that can handle more weight. I recommend installing the Curt Class II Trailer Hitch # C12107 on your Avalon and then pairing this with the Saris SuperClamp EX Bike Rack for 2 Bikes # SA4025F. I really like the HighNoon FC because it can handle up...

  • Thule Passage vs. Thule Gateway Pro Trunk-Mount Bike Rack for 2011 Subaru Forester
    I checked with Thule and verified that both the Thule Passage # TH910XT and Thule Gateway Pro # TH88VR will fit your daughter's 2011 Subaru Forester. These are both solid options for a trunk-mounted bike rack but between the two I recommend the Thule Gateway Pro # TH88VR. The Gateway Pro has a more robust strap system to anchor the rack than the Passage, has cradles which are more cushioned and conforming to bikes, and has an integrated cable lock to secure the bike to the rack, which...

  • Best Trunk Mounted Bike Rack Recommendation for a 2006 Volvo S60
    I would go with the Saris Bone part # SA805BL over the Thule Gateway # TH88VR. The Bones weighs less, costs less, and contacts the vehicle in fewer places. Check out the review video I attached for more info. The nicest trunk rack we offer that has been confirmed to fit your vehicle is the Thule OutWay # TH45JV though. What makes this rack far superior to the others is the attachment system. It uses 2 rubber coated straps to attach to the vehicle rather than 6 nylon straps like other...

  • Can the Trunk Be Opened With the Thule Archway Installed On a 2015 Honda Civic
    The Thule Gateway Pro 2-Bike Rack part # TH88VR is a fit for a 2015 Honda Civic so that's great news. That said, you can't open the trunk with the rack installed or any trunk mount bike rack for that matter as the trunk struts are not rated to handle the extra weight of the rack and it could come loose and cause damage to either the rack or vehicle. If you find that you will need to get into the truck while carrying your bikes then your best option would be a hitch and hitch mounted bike...

Please note, if you don't already have a locking strap I do recommend one to prevent theft of the rack from the vehicle, you can use the Thule Passive Security Strap for Trunk Mounted Bike Carriers part # TH533 for this.

  • Trunk Mounted Bike Rack Recommendation for a 2008 Ford Taurus
    When a bike doesn't have a horizontal top tube there is an adapter that can be used that will attach to the bike that will provide an attachment point. The part # 64005 will attach at the seat post and at the steering stem and will provide an attachment point for a hanging bike rack. The Gateway Pro # TH88VR has been confirmed to fit your 2008 Ford Taurus so it would work great. I have attached a video for you to see all of its features.

    You have a choice between trunk-mount and hitch-mount 2-bike carriers for the back of your 2013 BMW 3-Series Sedan. The linked article will give you good background on the advantages of each type. A trunk-mount rack will often be more cost-effective than a hitch plus a hitch-mount rack. However, trunk racks place the weight burden of the rack and bikes on your car's sheet metal. Hitch racks place that burden on the vehicle's frame - its strongest part - and also allow you to use other...

    I have a solution for you. Unfortunately, Thule discontinued the Raceway Pro 2 Bike Rack, and I confirmed with Thule that the Gateway Pro 2 # TH88VR will not fit your 2014 Jeep Cherokee. With that being said, the Thule OutWay 2 # TH45JV is confirmed to fit your vehicle. I recommend this rack because it is a lightweight carrier (only 18.2 pounds) and includes a one-Key System locks and cable lock that deter theft of the rack and your bikes. In addition, the rack also has a lifetime warranty...
