Can Tongue Weight for Trailer Hitch on 2019 Mazda CX-3 Be Exceeded
Products Featured in This Question
Question:
Hi, I want to purchase this for my CX3 but understand that it can only hold up to 200lbs tongue weight. I have a dirt bike that is 218lbs dry weight and I have a motorcycle carrier picture attached that extends about 11 inches from the receiver hitch. Will this be okay for the car considering that no additional weight will be loaded up inside the car? Or will it be a problem to exceed the tongue capacity? Thank you very much!

Expert Reply:
We cannot recommend you exceed the 200 lb tongue weight of the hitch that fits your 2019 Mazda CX-3, the Draw-Tite Trailer Hitch Receiver # 24933.
It is not designed to have that much weight so there's no telling if the structure can be impacted. This is the only available capacity for your CX-3, so if you want to haul your dirt bike with this vehicle the best option really is a trailer.
To do that you will need the hitch, along with T-One Vehicle Wiring Harness # 118718, Draw-Tite Drawbar # 3593, and 1-7/8" Hitch Ball # 19256 or 2" Hitch Ball # 19258.
I've added links to some video reviews for you as well.
