If you are looking for a e-bike rack that will handle more than 2 bikes look no further as there is none that will match this. It is really beefy. I literally stepped on it and jumped up and down on it and it took it like a champ. Took 3-65lbs e-bikes + a regular bike on a 80 km trip and it did not wobble and made no squeaking sound. The 4 hooks that secures the bikes to the post are all lockable (some reviewers say only 2 are lockable). Installation is not as easy like a Hollywood Rack but you should take that as a positive as it won't be stolen that easily. I already been approached by few people asking where I got it as they have not seen a bike rack that can carry more than 2 e-bikes before. I would strongly suggest putting reflective tapes on the rack bars or attach a trailer light when you are carrying more than 2 bikes as the vehicle rear lights will be blocked by all bikes. I also think the company should put reflective tape along the cross bars to add visibility during night time. Overall it is the best e-bike rack one can buy. No need for the fancy ratcheting vertical post as this is better and won't get stuck. One tip is to not put those screws on the vertical posts so that you can remove the hooks when you are not using the the rack. This way you won't worry about the hooks exposed to the elements too much and will surely extend the life of the foam and lock on the hooks. It will also be faster to remove and install the bikes without the hooks on the posts. I would also suggest installing a anti-wobble contraption on the receiver for extra security. If you have 3-4 e-bikes on this thing and want to tilt it, you either forget about doing it or you need 2 people to do such a maneuver as this thing with load is VERY HEAVY.
