How to Carry Bike With 2015 Volkswagen E-Golf

Question:

Hi I’m looking for a hitch to put on my 2015 VW EGolf to be able to carry a bike rack. Someone recommended the Curt C11355 but I don’t see it here. Is there a different model you’d recommend? Thanks!

The 11355 was discontinued some years ago, likely due to the e-Golf no longer being made, and there is not a hitch that fits your 2015 Volkswagen e-Golf. You can still carry a bike with this car, but you'll need a trunk-mounted bike rack. The best option for that is from Yakima:

- Yakima FullBack 2 Bike Rack # Y02634

The FullBack # Y02634 is great for a number of reasons, starting with its strong anti-sway cradles and ratcheting straps which secure your bikes at three different points. This is important because it means your bikes won't make any contact with each other or your VW. Another important factor which makes the FullBack the top option is its integrated security measures which keeps your bikes and the rack safely in your possession.

It comes with a cable lock which secures your bikes to the rack, as well as a steel-reinforced strap that stores inside your hatch to help keep the FullBack safely anchored to your e-Golf.
