Question:

I have a 2023 volvo xc60 with a volvo installed trailer hitch. I need an adaptor for it so I can use my Thule bike rack. I have heard that it is difficult to find an adaptor that fits. Can you help me?

It looks like the factory hitch for a 2023 Volvo XC60 is a class II 1-1/4". You can use the Trailer Hitch Receiver Adapter 1-1/4" to 2" Hitch item # e43YR to convert it to a 2" hitch.

Please be advised that using any adapter will reduce your hitches capacity by 50%. You will also want to verify with Thule that your bike rack is approved to be used with an adapter like this.
