How To Transport A Heavy Fat Tire Ebike

Hello

I recently purchased a heavy Fat tire e-bike. Even without the batteries it weighs about 80lbs.
How would you guys transport this ebike.

I was thinking of taking the front tire off and putting it in sideways but lifting it in and out sideways without scratching the car could be challenging. and I would have to make sure to always remember put in the spacer in the brakes. (I am forgetful)

However I imagine finding and installing a trailer hitch would be expensive and a pain.
Also finding a matching bike rack for a fat tire ebike would also be hard.
But getting the bike off and on this would be a lot easier.

Or is there any other methods I may not have considered.

Thanks for your input.

Take a buddy & a rope... Tie the front of the bike to your bumper... get you buddy to ride & steer the bike... Oh wait, how far are you going...

I saw a dirt bike towed behind a car down the freeway before. Back tire was on the ground, front tire was up on a platform hanging off the hitch iirc. Looked weird af but when all you have is a car. I'm not sure how the smafety police would like that setup though. That might be a little hard on hub motor though compared to a dirtbike freewheeling?
