How far a rack sits back from the vehicle depends partially on the vehicle itself. So I can't tell you that exact measurement. However, what I can tell you how far out the rack is from the hitch pin hole, and you can then measure from the hitch pin hole to the outermost point on your vehicle and you'll know how far the rack is from the rear.

The Kuat measures 33 inches from the hitch pin hole to the furthest point when folded down and 18-1/2 inches when folded up. Another notable thing that you may be interested in is the Kuat weighs 52 pounds but can carry up to 60 pound bikes.

I've linked a video of this rack for you. If you let me know the year, make, and model of your vehicle we may have a video with the rack installed.
