Question:
Can you clarify whether Class 1 hitch will work with this rack or not on a 2006 Toyota Prius? Thanks!

Thank you so much for bringing this to my attention. In order to clarify, a 1-1/4 class I hitch (class I and II) will work with the Saris SuperClamp EX Bike Rack for 2 Bikes - 1-1/4" and 2" Hitches - Wheel Mount # SA4025F. In addition, the Saris SuperClamp EX will also work with 2-inch hitches (classes III, IV, and V).
If you need a hitch recommendation for your 2006 Toyota Prius, I recommend the Curt Trailer Hitch Receiver - Custom Fit - Class I - 1-1/4" # C11468. The Curt Hitch receiver comes with all hardware needed for a bolt-on installation. I went ahead and attached a video of the installation for assistance.
