The Thule Apex XT 2 Bike Rack for 1-1/4" and 2" Hitches - Tilting # TH9024XT will absolutely work with a 2017 Honda Civic Sedan. If you don't have a hitch yet, I recommend the Curt Trailer Hitch Receiver - Custom Fit - Class I - 1-1/4" # C11604 which is an easy bolt-on installation. This is a very nice rack with an included cable lock that is compatible with a Class I hitch receiver.

This is a really well made and popular bike rack because of its size, the Hide Away anti-sway cradles, and the functionality of the upright mast. This carrier easily folds and tilts to make installation or storage easy when not in use. I recommend using the Swagman Deluxe Bike Frame Adapter Bar for Women's, Children's, and Alternative Frame Bikes # 64005 to increase ground clearance and allow you to carry the bikes level.
