Also try putting treats in the bag and praise like crazy if he goes and gets them. Treat him when he goes in the bag.

Otherwise, what about a car seat?
Thanks for the response! He hates the car seat. It's terrifying for him to look out the window. He prefers to cower in my lap which I don't allow for safety reasons. So he will shiver and shake on the seat next to me which I have to attach his harness to the seat belt otherwise he leaps back and forth onto my lap. He's so funny bc he will follow me and he wants to come with me but he's just too anxious once we are about 10 mins into a trip. My other older yorkie is the total opposite. He will lay right down in the back seat and is so calm in the car. I have even tried them together and the little one is still a wreck.
