A vehicle V comprises a bicycle fixing device (1A, figure 2) for fixing a bicycle 70 housed in the vehicle (e.g. inside a trunk). The bicycle fixing device comprises a rail 12 fixed on a vehicle floor 50 for mounting the bicycle thereon and an arm 20 for fixing the bicycle on the rail 12. The arm 20 is rotatable toward a door opening 60 to fix the bicycle such that the bicycle 70 is least partially located outside the vehicle through the door opening. Preferably, the rear seat (40) may be inclined or folded forward and comprises another rail 11 on its back face (41). Preferably, the floor panel 50 has a recessed portion (51, figure 5A) at which a front or rear bicycle portion is disposed. The recessed portion (51) may include an inclined surface (51c), wherein the arm 20 contacts the inclined surface when the arm straddles the door (e.g. rear boot door) opening 60. A maintenance bench 54 may be provided in a vicinity of the door opening 60 for a person to sit on. Second bicycle fixing device (1B, figure 2) comprising non-rotatable fixed arm 120 and a front wheel fixing device 32 are disclosed.
