Question:

What's the difference between the Class III hitches for my 2022 Rogue? Which one do you recommend? This will be just for a bike rack so I don't need the wiring or anything.

The Class III hitches we have for your 2022 Nissan Rogue include the Draw-Tite # DT85MR and the Curt # C24HR.

I recommend going with the Draw-Tite over the Curt because it sits about 1/2" higher off the ground and the center of the hitch pin hole to the edge of the bumper on your Rogue will be about 4-1/2" as opposed to 6-1/2" like we see from the Curt. This means you'll have better clearance when it comes to your bike rack.

If you don't already have a bike rack I highly recommend the Kuat NV 2.0 Base Bike # BA22B because it's really easy to use and it looks really sleek. The matte black finish does a great job at matching the black trim on your vehicle and then this rack features a foot pedal for tilting/folding the rack as opposed to a hand lever which means you'll have just one hand on the rack when you go to tilt it away.

An installation video of the hitch and a review video of the bike rack have been linked for you to check out.
