The IONIQ 5 is based on a new dedicated electric vehicle platform called the Electric-Global Modular Platform (E-GMP) which other full-electric Hyundai vehicles will be based on. Hyundai sibling brand KIA is also using this platform with the EV6 which shares similar specifications to the IONIQ 5.

Another question before you start looking is how are you planning to carry the bikes?
There are many factors to consider, and one of the most important things is the value of your bike. There is no point in risking a cheap bike car rack if your bike is worth a few thousand pounds!
Bikes vary so much in cost, style, size and weight all these need to be considered.
The main types of bike rack are roof-mounted, boot or trunk-mounted and towbar or hitch-mounted.
This is one of the best bike racks for cars currently in the UK.
The Thule ProrRide is a great choice and is ideal if your bike has mudguards, because rack wont interfere with them which is different to those bike racks that hold the bike by the wheels.
You do have to clamp directly onto the down tube bike, however the jaws have been designed to minimize the risk of damage.
This hauls one bike and requires a base bar system.
If you have a Thule or other base bar system or you have a vehicle that already has factory cross bars. The RockyMounts versatile TomaHawk upright bike rack is really ideal.
This bike rack is very versatile and it can haul all sort of bikes including kids bikes.
Loading a bike onto the rack is quite easy because RockyMounts roof racks include tabs so the wheel straps are kept out of the way.
Loading a bike is relatively easy since RockyMounts includes tabs to keep the rack’s wheel straps out of the way.
A disadvantage maybe that the lock on the base rack doesn’t rate as a top scorer.
Storage wise it folds down well.
Many e-bikes are just too heavy to lift onto a car roof or load into a hatchback. This clever – but very expensive – rack might be the answer to your problems if your car has a tow ball. Being low to the ground it’s a lot easier to lift e-bikes or heavy mountain bikes into place. They are held in position using adjustable and removable arms with clamps which click loudly when at the correct tension, so you won’t damage expensive frames. The whole assembly can be tilted out of the way of your rear tailgate at the press of a foot pedal, so you can still access the boot.
The cleverest feature of the XT 2 is its ability to fold up for easy storage in a garage or shed – there’s even a built-in carrying handle to make it easier to move around. Its big brother, the XT 3, even has a wheel so you don’t even need to lift it. The design includes built-in rear lights and a number plate holder.
Finally, we recommend the Menabo Carriers these are available in various sizes for carrying up to four bikes;

Following on from the success of the model S saloon and model X, the Model 3 shares those cars’ combination of clever battery technology, powerful electric motors and high-tech onboard systems. Outside, the Model 3 also shares its siblings styling, which easily flies under the radar – a stark contrast to the remarkably minimalist interior that’s all but bare except for a very large infotainment screen used to control pretty much everything in the vehicle. Many customer have the desire to carry bikes with the new Tesla and here we have the perfect solution. The Model S comes with a 750 kg towing capacity so any major towing is not an option, but for the purpose of carrying bikes the detachable towbar provides a safe and easy option. This towbar also provides a great nose weight of up to 91kgs giving plenty of scope to carry multiple bikes.

Bikes can be transported by car, van, or motorhome. We do this at Telford Towbars; we offer the best bike racks in the UK.
It is important as our customer that you understand the features and benefits of our specific bike racks to choose the best one for you.
If you are transporting bikes by car, there are a few options you can use either the rear bike carrier or you have the option of transporting bikes on the roof.
If you are using the rear of the car, you will need a towbar. The rear bike carrier is placed on the towbar and fixed to the ball head. At Telford Towbars, we will make sure that the rear bike rack has a lighting system and a license plate, making sure they are in full view for safety.
If you are transporting bikes on a roof, a roof-mounted bike rack is required, and it is more complex than the rear bike rack fitting. The type of bike rack you need will depend on how many bikes you want to transport and the type of vehicle you have. At Telford Towbars, we can advise you accordingly.
