Which Bike Rack Will Allow Rear Doors To Open On 2019 Nissan NV 2500?
Question:
I have a 2019 Nissan NV 2500 Cargo van. Will opening/closing my rear doors clear this rack when its in the tilted position?

I had someone pull the Softride Hang2 2-Bike Rack for 1-1/4" and 2" Hitches # SR27041 from our warehouse to get some measurements for you. When this bike rack is in the tilted back position, the upright arm measures about 26" from the hitch pin hole on the receiver. You can measure 26" back from your receiver's pin hole to verify if your doors extend out that for. If you have this clearance then there is still a chance that the swinging doors could interfere with the lower arm on the bike rack; we have not tested this on a Nissan NV 2500 so I can't confirm compatibility for sure.
I think a better option would be to use the RockyMounts BackStage Bike Rack for 2 Bikes - 2" Hitches # RKY10002. This is a very unique bike rack that has the ability to swing out to the side, thus giving access to the trunk on most vehicles. I attached a demonstration video for this bike rack along with a photo that shows a similar vehicle using this bike rack and the rear doors were able to open.
