Ordered for a 2024 Honda Accord Hybrid and it fits perfectly. Carrier feels solid and was easy to put together and mount on vehicle.
by: BillGBW07/03/2022
Great bike rack. The cable and hook system is extremely strong and tight and being bike to open the trunk with the rack attached (but without bike) is a godsend for packing. Assembly is somewhat difficult due to Thule’s IKEA-style picture instructions. Watching the video is essential. Once assembled, however, attaching and locking the rack in place is pretty simple. Be sure to wash and dry hooks, bumpers, and car surfaces to avoid scratches!

The rear hatch mounted rack fit my X3 just as your website indicated - the technician who described how this rack would fit. I'm impressed with how well it is designed to be stable and to not impact the plastic spoiler above the rear window.

Originally I was looking to put a hitch on my 2021 jeep renegade sport for a hitch mount bike rack, after seeing that I would either have to remove seam sealer and drill holes in my rear subframe (this is not a good option living in the rust belt), or remove my entire back bumper off and cut holes in it for the factory style hitch, and still have a rack that is illegal and blocks my license plate/brake lights turn signals I decided to look at different options. A roof rack is a little too high to lift a bike on comfortably. This thule outway platform 2 takes about 10 minutes to install correctly, and is solid and holds the bike securely, and the rack locks to the vehicle, and also the bikes lock to the rack no extra purchases required (comes with 2 keys and plastic spoiler supports). I have driven 80mph over potholes and bumps, also on extreme hills and has held securely.

In order to carry bikes, you would need a trailer hitch and hitch mount bike rack. For a trailer hitch, I recommend Draw-Tite hitch # 75586.

To carry women's bikes or bikes with sharply angled top tubes or step-through frames, using a frame adapter like part # 64005 is recommended.

The cradles themselves are only rated for 33 lbs so I cannot recommend you exceed this. With that being said we do still have options for you even when pulling a trailer.

However I was able to find someone that is able to use the ThuleOutWay 2 # TH45JV , which is a trunk rack carrier, on the Nissan Juke with the NISMO package. Thule does not recommend this if you have a spoiler but I attached a picture of an older model of this carrier that...

This is the 3-bike version of the OutWay so if you are only wanting the 2-bike version you will want part # TH45JV instead. They both have a 33 lb per-bike weight capacity and closer arms to reduce the need for the adapter bar # TH982XT so it really just boils down to whether you think you'll need that 3rd bike option or not.

To install a trunk mount bike rack, you must have two straps hook to the top edge of your rear hatch. To do this, the straps must go over the spoiler. A plastic spoiler was not designed to support the weight of a bike rack and bikes and could deform or even break under the weight. If...

I went ahead and attached a screenshot from the instruction manual that shows all the components. The reason why the Thule One-Key System Lock Cylinders # TH450400 appear as an additional accessory is because other Thule accessories (crossbars, towers, roof racks, snow equipment racks, cargo boxes) have the option for using the cylinders as extra security measures.
