Trailer Hitch for a 2016 Subaru Crosstrek for a Bike Rack
Updated 12/06/2016 | Published 12/05/2016
Question:
2016 Crosstrek. Looking for receiver point like one pictured for bike rack. No trailer use.
asked by: Tony R
Expert Reply:
Trailer hitches are designed to fit specific vehicles. You will need one that was designed to mount to your 2016 Subaru Crosstrek. Hitch # 13018 will not work because it is designed for certain Mercedes vehicles.
For hitches you have some options. You can use a Class I hitch, # DT24959. A Class I trailer hitch will be limited to 2 bikes at most and the bike rack will need to be Class I compatible. If you need to carry more than 2 bikes you can install a Class III hitch, # 76084, which has a 2 inch receiver. This is the route I would go because it will afford you more bike rack options.
If you do not already have a bike rack you can look through our extensive collection which I have linked for you.
