To add a hitch to your 2023 Subaru Outback, I recommend the etrailer item # e25TR. This hitch is custom fit and bolts to your Subaru with included hardware. This is a class III hitch with a 2" receiver. It has a 350 lbs maximum tongue weight so it'll work great with your Thule bike rack.

I really like the etrailer item # e25TR because the crosstube mounts behind your rear bumper. This leaves only the 2" receiver visible which helps with ground clearance.

I have linked an installation video below so you can see how to get this hitch set up.
