I have a 2023 Kona EV and want to put a 1 1/4 inch hitch on to accommodate a Thule bike rack. Has anyone put a hitch on a Kona EV? If so - any feedback on types, configuration etc… The concern raised by one rack dealer was the proximity of the battery to where the hitch would be mounted.
Any concerns should be covered in this well documented thread. https://www.insideevsforum.com/community/index.php?threads/installing-a-trailer-hitch.5084/
I just installed a 2" trailer hitch on my 2021 DrawTite DT52GR Install is doable solo but would be a lot easier with a second person. Mods to the bumper trim and bumper splash shield are required but are simple and easy.
