ADAC overall score 1.6: How the test was conducted
For the 2025 test, 13 rear bike carriers for two bikes were purchased anonymously. Six different types of bikes – including e-bikes – were mounted on each carrier. The evaluation was divided into three categories:
- Handling (40%): e.g. operating instructions, mounting on the car, loading, access to the boot (tilt function), ease of repair, folding mechanism.
- Quality (40%): material, workmanship, weight, anti-theft device.
- Safety (20%): safety instructions, behaviour during emergency braking and evasive manoeuvres, threshold test at 30 km/h.
In practical tests, all carriers were tested with maximum loads during driving tests, including emergency braking and dynamic manoeuvres.
