Expert Reply:

I was unable to find a trunk mount bike carrier that can guarantee it would not interfere with the spoiler on your Evoque. I do have another option. Since you do have a concern about the spoiler I recommend going with a trailer hitch and a hitch mounted bike rack. The trailer hitch for your Evoque is the Curt Trailer Hitch Receiver, part # C13128. This is a Class III hitch and it has a 2 inch receiver opening. Per Curt, any non-trailer accessories used with this hitch require tie down straps like part # 18050, or it will void the warranty. I have attached a link to an installation video for this hitch on an Evoque you can check out.

The bike carrier I recommend is the Thule Camber Bike Rack, part # TH9058. This carrier has a maximum weight capacity of 35 lbs per bike. The carrier weighs less than 30 lbs and tilts away from the vehicle to give you access to the Evoque's rear cargo area. For added security, you can use the Snug-Tite hitch lock, part # THSTL2 to help deter thieves.
