If you are looking for a great economic option for a platform carrier that can convert from a 4-bike rack to a 2-bike rack, I recommend the Curt 4 Bike Platform Rack - 2" Hitches - Frame Mount - Tilting # C18087. The Curt 4 has a 45 pound per-bike weight capacity and includes sliding wheel hoops that accommodate bikes of different lengths. In addition, the Curt 4 has integrated locks that secure your bikes to the rack.

If you need a hitch recommendation that is compatible with the Curt 4 for your 2020 Nissan Pathfinder, I recommend the etrailer Trailer Hitch Receiver - Custom Fit - Matte Black Finish - Class III - 2" # e98908. The etrailer hitch has a maximum tongue weight of 900 pounds, which is more than enough weight to accommodate up to 4 bikes on your Curt 4. In addition, the etrailer hitch comes with all hardware included for an easy bolt-on installation.
