Question:

I own a 2019 Honda Civic hatchback and want to buy a hitch and bike rack for two Lectric XP3 bikes. Do you have any options that will work for this configuration? Thanks

Hey Ky. To add a hitch to your 2019 Honda Civic hatchback, I recommend our etrailer item # e46ZV. This is our highest capacity hitch for your car and is custom fit.

To transport your two Lectric XP 3.0 bikes, I recommend the Kuat NV 2.0 Base 2-Bike Platform Rack item # BA12B. This is our highest capacity class I hitch and it tops out at 60 lbs per bike. You will need to remove the batteries on both of your Xp 3.0's to get under the weight limit.

The Kuat NV 2.0 fits tires up to 3" wide. Due to the smaller 20" tires you have, you will need to install a couple of the Children's Bike Adapter for NV 2.0 Base Bike Racks item # 016-025-00-00.

Does your Honda Civic have center exhaust?

@Ky You're welcome! That's good because we do not have an option for the Civic's with the center exhaust. Let me know if you have any additional questions.
