Trunk Mounted Bike Rack Recommendation for 2022 Honda CR-V Hybrid Touring
Updated 08/04/2025 | Published 01/15/2024
Question:
Can you share what you reccomend for a 2022 Honda CRV Hybrid- Touring model. Would have loved a trailer hitch, but due to the hybrid version seems its not an option guessing a hybrid battery placement and safety issue. Looks like a hatch/trunk-mounted option would work but wanted to ask the pros. Thanks...great videos BTW!

Expert Reply:
Hey Antone, you are right the battery placement on the 2022 Honda CR-V is the reason the hitches do not fit so a trunk mounted bike rack solution would be your best bet. The one I recommend for your CR-V is the Saris Bones 2 part # SA805BL that you referenced. This is a nice, lightweight rack that's really easy to install and use so it would work well for you.

I just bought a saris bones 2 for my 2021 Honda CRV hybrid, but do I need hatch huggers?
