Trailer Hitch Receiver For Carrying an E-Bike Rack With a 2021 Toyota Venza  

Question:

Helpful Expert Reply:

I recommend the Draw-Tite Max-Frame Trailer Hitch Receiver # DT46MR for your 2021 Toyota Venza Hybrid. This receiver will fit all trim levels of your Venza. It has a 2" receiver tube that is capable of supporting up to 525lbs of tongue weight which is plenty for a bike rack with your E bike. When you do not have the bike rack placed into your receiver you will still be able to use the automatic lift gate by performing the kick action just to the side of the receiver tube.

I recommend the Thule T2 Pro XTR Bike Rack # TH83JV to haul your E bike. This rack is capable of holding 2 bikes up to 60lbs each. The rack has a built in lock for both bike posts with a matching lock on the base to secure it to your vehicle. When you do not need the rack it can be easily removed or folded up for storage on the Venza. It will tilt away when you have your bike loaded and need to access the rear lift gate on your Venza.

The Curt T-Connector Vehicle Wiring Harness # C57ER will allow you to add some Auxiliary Lights # C53201 onto your bike rack to ensure that drivers have a clear view of the lights as your bike may block them.
