Hitch Recommendation to Carry E-Bike Rack for 2015 Subaru XV CrossTrek Hybrid
Question:
Thank you! The hitch you’re suggesting works with a. Hybrid? Subaru says there’s no option due to the location of the battery, does this work?

Expert Reply:
We do have hitches that fit your 2015 Subaru XV Crosstrek Hybrid which will allow you to use an e-bike rack like the Thule EasyFold XT part # TH903202 that you referenced which is also your best option.
The EasyFold is a really great option for E-bikes as it has more than enough weight capacity for the heavier bikes, has a ramp to make loading/unloading easy, and has frame clamps that can fit basically all frame styles.
For a hitch we have the etrailer.com hitch part # E98838 which is a really great option with plenty of weight capacity and installs really easily.
