Ordered for a 2024 Honda Accord Hybrid and it fits perfectly. Carrier feels solid and was easy to put together and mount on vehicle.

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.



by:

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!



by:

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.

Great product. Packaging came damaged but product looked ok.

  • What Are the New Features on the Thule Trunk Mounted OutWay 3 Bike Carrier # TH56BV
    The OutWay is the newest version of the Raceway. Thule improved the previous design of the OutWay 3 Bike Carrier # TH56BV by using a stronger material for construction, a higher quality locking mechanism, and developed a new retracting system for the ratcheting cables to come up with the OutWay Trunk Mounted 3-Bike Rack, # TH56BV. The OutWay is made in the USA and is one of our top selling bike racks.

  • Will the Thule OutWay 3 Fit on a 2005 Nissan Maxima and Carry 3 Bikes that Weigh 20 lbs Each
    Yes, the Thule OutWay 3 Bike Carrier, # TH56BV, will fit on the 2005 Nissan Maxima. This rack is tested for carrying up to 99 lbs on the back of vehicles, and will work great with your 3 road bikes weighing approximately 60 lbs., as long as the rack is properly installed. One tip that I can offer, is that you should position the heaviest of your bikes closest to the vehicle and the lightest bike out farthest. Always carry bikes as close to the vehicle as possible if carrying fewer than...

  • Trunk Mount Bike Carrier for 3 Bikes on a 2016 Toyota Camry
    There are several 3-bike trunk mount bike carriers that will fit your 2016 Toyota Camry. I have included a link to the options for you. If you are looking for the best then look no further than the Thule OutWay # TH56BV. I have an older version of this rack and it is by far the easiest trunk mount rack I have ever used. What makes it so easy are the 2 retractable cables it uses to attach to the vehicle rather than 6 straps like other carriers. The excess cable stores inside the carrier...

  • Do I Need To Use The Spoiler Support Straps For The Thule OutWay Trunk Bike Rack
    We do recommend always using the spoiler support strap for additional stability and safety. Loosening the strap can be done fairly quickly, even quicker once you get the hang of it. From the looks of the spoiler on the back of a 2023 Chevy Bolt EUV you will definitely want to use the spoiler support strap kit that comes with the Thule OutWay Trunk Bike Rack # TH56BV.

    You are correct that the Thule OutWay 3 Bike Carrier # TH56BV has been confirmed by Thule to fit a 2017 BMW X1. On occasion, manufacturers make changes to fit guides after their initial release, which was the case with this rack.

  • Does Thule OutWay Trunk Mounted Bike Rack # TH56BV Fit 2015 Audi A4
    The Thule OutWay Trunk Mounted Bike Rack part # TH9002PRO that you referenced is a confirmed fit for your 2015 Audi A4. The fit tips are: Place top clips in the gap at the front edge of the top of the trunk, hatch or door. Place lower clips in the bottom edge of trunk or hatch. Lower arm of carrier should be positioned on upper tier of bumper.

  • Cable Maintenance on my Thule OutWay Three Bike Rack
    While the Thule OutWay 3-Bike Rack part # TH56BV is one of the nicest bike racks on the market to mount to a trunk. With that said they do not recommend leaving the rack on during non use periods. I also understand this is not always followed. Check out the information I was able to find on care and maintenance below. 1. Remove your Thule rack and accessories when they are not in use and before entering automatic car washes. 2. Locks must be turned and moved periodically to ensure smooth operation....

  • What are the Folded Dimensions of the Thule OutWay 3 Trunk Mount Bike Rack
    I went down to our show room and grabbed a Thule OutWay 3 Bike Carrier # TH56BV2 to take some measurements. All measurements are approximate. When folded up it is 23-7/8 inches wide, 8 inches front to back (this can change depending on how far the arms are folded down), and 26-1/2 inches tall (this can also change depending how the arms are folded).

  • Trunk Mount Bike Carrier for 3 Bikes for a 2015 Toyota Camry
    I do recommend the Thule OutWay trunk mount bike rack # TH56BV for your 2015 Toyota Camry. I own an older generation of this rack and it is by far the easiest trunk mount carrier that I have ever used. The 2 cables it uses, instead of 6 straps, make it easier to install and the cables are more durable and store in the rack. The Raceway also includes an integrated cable lock to deter bike theft and the access to the retractable cables can be locked to deter theft of the rack. The arms...

  • Bike Rack Recommendation for 2009 Mercedes-Benz ML350 Without Trailer Hitch
    Since your 2009 Mercedes-Benz ML350 does not have a trailer hitch receiver installed your bike-carrying options will consist of either trunk-mount or roof-rack-mount types (that naturally require a roof rack be installed on the vehicle). Trunk-mount rack options for your ML350 will be the most cost-effective choice and the link provided will let you see all compatible 2- and 3-bike carriers. Please note that you cannot transport more than 3 bikes on the trunk of your vehicle. You can...

  • Where Should Lower Arm of Thule OutWay Trunk Rack # TH56BV be positioned on 2013 Kia Soul
    The lower arm of the Thule OutWay Trunk Rack part # TH56BV needs to basically be sitting on top of the bumper of your 2013 Kia Soul so that it provides vertical support for the rack. Right now its on the outside of the bumper and needs to be moved up higher till its on top of the bumper.

  • Trunk Mount Bike Rack Recommendation for a 2004 Toyota Prius
    The Thule OutWay, # TH56BV will fit your 2004 Toyota Prius! It holds 3 bikes and has a 99 pound total capacity. It can lock the bikes to the rack and the rack can be locked to the vehicle. It uses only 2 retractable cables to attach to the vehicle so it installs much quicker and easier than any other trunk mount carrier I have used.

  • Trunk Mounted Bike Rack Recommendation for a Kia Sorento
    I checked with Thule and the Thule OutWay, # TH56BV, is recommended for use on most year models of the Kia Sorento, see instructions link. If you could send me the exact year of your vehicle I would be glad to check and let you know if your vehicle is included in the fit list. The OutWay rack is the one I would purchase if purchasing a trunk mounted rack. This rack is very easy to install and remove because it uses rubber coated cables and a fit dial system that makes installation a breeze.

  • Will Rhode Gear Ultra Shuttle 3 Bike Rack Fit 2010 Toyota Sienna Mini Van
    Rhode Gear was bought by Yakima some years back and their vehicle fit guide information ceased well before your 2010 Toyota Sienna was produced. I contacted Yakima and they are unable to confirm a fit. This does not necessarily mean that the rack won't work for you, only that Yakima cannot provide absolute certainty. You can test-fit the rack if you wish and determine if it fits to your satisfaction. Usually if a Yakima-brand rack fits your vehicle, then the Rhode Gear rack will too. For...

  • Trouble Installing Bottom Hooks on Thule OutWay Bike Rack on a 2013 Kia Soul
    The issue you are having is not uncommon and not unique to the Kia Soul or a specific year. You mentioned removing the hooks from the cables but that is not necessary. All you have to do is get the top hooks in place to support the rack. Then pull the bottom cables out enough and pull open the hatch a little, put the hooks in place, then shut the hatch like normal. I have to do this on my car and my wife's SUV. Works every time. The video thing is coincidence since I have personally installed...

  • Best 3 Bike Trunk Bike Rack Recommendation for a 2012 Toyota Corolla
    The Thule OutWay Bike Rack part # TH56BV that you referenced has been confirmed as a fit for your 2012 Toyota Corolla so I would recommend it for you. As long as you don't exceed the weight capacity for the rack (99 lbs) you could carry all three of your bikes. I attached a review video for this rack for you to check out as well.

  • What Retractable Three- or Four-Bike Rack is Recommended for a 2010 Ford Escape Hybrid?
    You mentioned that you do not have a hitch, but there is a very good retractable trunk-mounted rack option for your 2010 Ford Escape Hybrid. I recommend going with the Thule OutWay 3-Bike Rack, # TH56BV, which has anti-sway cradles that secure your bikes at three points, No-Sway cages which prevent the bikes from contacting each other or your Escape, and a weight capacity of 99 lbs. The OutWay also has 2 retractable cables to secure the rack to your car, with ratcheting knobs to adjust...

  • How To Mount the Thule OutWay 3-Bike Rack To A 2006 Dodge Caravan
    We have not yet had a chance to mount the Thule OutWay 3-Bike Rack - Trunk Mount - Adjustable Arms part # TH56BV on a 2005 Hyundai Santa Fe or a 2006 Dodge Caravan. However, to install the Thule OutWay 3 on a 2006 Dodge Caravan you would need to set the fit dial to 10 for the rack to fit properly. For the 2005 Hyundai Santa Fe the bike rack would be set to 9 to fit properly. It is normal for the Thule OutWay to rest on the rear glass window of hatchback vehicles. There is padding on the...

  • Will Rear Wiper on Jetta SportWagen Interfere with Thule OutWay 3 Bike Carrier
    The Thule installation notes for the OutWay 3 Bike Carrier, part # TH56BV, on the 2009-2010 VW Jetta Sportwagen indicate that the rear wiper cannot be used with this bike carrier installed. The upper mounting arm will rest on the rear hatch glass when this item is installed. Please see the attached photo showing how the carrier mounts on a hatchback type vehicle. Since this rack mounts securely to your vehicle with its steel cables it is likely that if turned on accidentally the rear wiper...

  • Is Thule OutWay 3-Bike Rack Suitable For 2016 Scion iM?
    You mentioned that our fit guide has the Thule OutWay 3-Bike Rack, # TH56BV, as a confirmed fit for your Mazda 5, but is not listed for your 2016 Scion iM. That basically means that we have not had an opportunity to fit that rack on a 2016 Scion iM like yours and I reached out to Thule and they have not fitted that rack on your vehicle either. It doesn't mean it will or won't fit, however, because your Scion is a hatch back with a small spoiler, there is a good chance that it won't fit....

I have an older version of this rack and it is by far the easiest trunk mount rack I have ever used. What makes it so easy are the 2 retractable cables it uses to attach to the vehicle rather than 6 straps like other carriers.

  • Troubleshooting Thule Bike Rack On 2019 Subaru Outback Wagon with Automatic Liftgate
    The issue you are experiencing is likely that the lift struts and motor aren't able to support the extra weight of the bike rack itself on the hatch. The motorized hatch is designed to retract when it experiences resistance like if it were to hit a garage door for instance when opening. In this case it is the safety feature that you are having issue with. You will have to use the manual lift function and may need to even support the hatch when opened.
