Hey Mike,

Yes, both the etrailer # e25AR and Curt # C89UR are compatible with hybrid models of the 2023 Toyota Venza and you would be able remove your 1.25" hitch in order to install one of these. Personally, I prefer the matte black finish of the # e25AR because it tends to blend in better with the fascia and doesn't highlight scratches or dings from the road.

If you plan on towing a small trailer or adding lights to a bike rack or cargo carrier then I recommend also picking up the Curt T-Connector Vehicle Wiring Harness with 4-Pole Flat Trailer Connector # C57ER.

Hey Mike, how did the swap from your 1.25-inch hitch to the 2-inch option on your Venza go? Your update could make it easier for others looking to upgrade their hybrid setup.
