Question:
I have a 2021 Chevy Bolt EV with low ground clearance and a rear diffuser. Can the Crosstrack fit without hitting anything?

Expert Reply:
That’s a smart concern, Nia. The Crosstrack sits close to the vehicle and folds up compact when parked. On low–ride height vehicles, the 1-bike versions # HLY98RR (for 2" hitch) or # HLY68RR (for 1-1/4" and 2" hitch) are preferable because they hug the car tighter and minimize overhang compared with 2-bike models. On your 2021 Chevy Bolt EV, the hitch you installed measures about 12" off the ground. Luckily the Crosstrack doesn't drop down at all and stays level with the hitch. So it would sit level and about 25" back.
If you need 2 bikes, you can measure 36" back from your hitch and see if it will be an issue. If no issue there, check out the
2 bike 2" hitch # HLY38RR
2 bike 1-1/4" & 2" hitch # HLY48RR
