When you need to pull a small trailer, carry bikes, or mount a cargo carrier, this Curt Class I hitch gives you the connection point you need. It has a 1-1/4" x 1-1/4" receiver opening, a maximum gross trailer weight of 2,000 lbs, and a maximum tongue weight of 200 lbs. That’s plenty for light-duty towing or hauling everyday gear. The sturdy square-tube design keeps things stable so your load tracks straight behind you.
You don’t need a shop lift or welding setup to get this hitch installed. The bolt-on design uses included hardware and fits directly to the frame with no welding required. All mounting hardware and instructions come in the box, so it’s ready for a straightforward DIY install in your own driveway.
Built from fully welded steel and finished with a gloss black powder coat over a protective base layer, this hitch stands up to rust and road grime. The tough finish helps it blend cleanly under the bumper while resisting chips from gravel and weather exposure.
Curt uses precision robotic welding to make sure each connection is consistent and strong. That tight manufacturing tolerance means the hitch lines up correctly and performs reliably under load. You get a solid connection you can count on for small trailers, bike racks, and light cargo carriers.

Ratings & Reviews
I waited a little to write this review.
I am a reasonably handy person and decided to tackle this myself. Just needed a jack, jack stands and a step bit for my drill. I didn't get hurt and my car didn't fall apart. I do recommend having someone else help you get the hitch up to the bolts... however it is possible to do by yourself with a little ingenuity.
I also think it is important to get a hitch stabilizer so your stuff isn't just bouncing around back there.
Works great. Would do again.
Straight forward, wish I didn't need to file 2 holes larger in the frame to fit the bolts but other than that, exactly what I expected, awkward to bolt up but not difficult at the end of the day
I've had this installed for a year now and it's been great! I installed it myself in under an hour by myself. If you can get a second set of hands to help you that would be better! Instructions were very detailed and the fit is perfect. I use my hitch for a bike rack and couldn't be happier.
Fast delivery, easy install within an h our.
Great video explaining the install process. Made the install go much smoother than I believe it would have been.
The product has been awesome in terms of use. The instructions were a little misleading however when installing. They make it seem like it should be super easy to file holes in your cars frame to secure the hitch itself. However it’s not that simple, we tried multiple different tools and methods to file down our frame and it took much longer than we expected. Product itself has been wonderful. My boyfriend and I installed it on our 2017 Subaru Impreza and traveled from Washington, down the coast, across to the east end of Texas, up to Montana and back around. We spent several months on this trip hauling our homemade travel trailer and our car had no problems safely towing our project.
Hitch arrived today as promised. There was a hole in the package but we inspected the merchandise and am 99½% sure there was no damage. That metal is pretty sturdy and there doesn't appear to be any problem. Looking forward to getting it installed on the car so we can start camping when the weather warms up.
Installation was spot-on thanks to your videos. Funny your system auto-sent this today - I just recommended you to my son who is looking for a new hitch. Thanks. You guys are great.

One-Year? No surprises, no problems! All is well - thanks
Great hitch. Install wasn't so bad. Still holding up like a stock hitch 1 year later.
The Curt Receiver was a perfect fit, and the instructions are spot-on. Delivery was quick, and an etrailer representative followed the progress of my purchase from shipping through to delivery. Great Service, Thanks!

Works like a Champ!
Quality materials (including mounting hardware) are used and quality welds hold it all together. Even the coats of black paint look durable. The overall construction and installation inspire confidence when towing. There was no mention in the included installation instructions that loosening the plastic bumper valence and muffler mounts was recommended to reduce the installation effort of the hitch under a 2017 Subaru Impreza.

The Curt Trailer is still bolted to my Subaru and still maintains its strong integrity while pulling a motorcycle trailer on an annual 800 mile trip to and from the Blue Ridge Mountains.
Bought on a Sunday, got word it'd SHIPPED on that same Sunday! Parcel arrived in fine fashion three days later, intact and undamaged... though the substantial double-walled cardboard box had taken some abuse in transit. No surprise that, these things are heavy and have hard corners. Supplied fasteners are nice shiny new GRADE 8 carriage bolts & flanged, toothed nuts for securing hitch to vehicle frame. Looking forward to getting on to actual installation details nicely outlined in the 'how-to' video on etrailer's website later today. This is my second hitch bought from etrailer, maybe my last ('cause I don't expect to be trading vehicles again anytime soon) but I recommend them highly for customer support, service and installation tips.

Solid enough after a years travels. Got light use no boating this year, just a bike carrier & just the one time.
Thank you Jay ( and Jessica too) for your help. We installed the hitch without issue. Very satisfied with your service, products and pricing. Have a great day!
product looks good, delivery not so much, no protective packaging provided inside box, in turn, it punctured two holes in the box and product got scuffed up. also the hardware was attached in a sloppy way which makes it difficult to get it off and start the job. a little attention to detail goes along way guys.
I’ve had my trailer hitch for a year now and it’s great. I had my mechanic install it, which went easy. I can bring my bikes anywhere now!
Outstanding customer service. Installed the hitch in about 2 hours with a couple of issues because I didn’t have an extension for my wrench otherwise would had been faster. Put my bike rack no issues
This hitch fit perfectly on my vehicle. All the parts necessary to install it were included with simple directions. The websites was easy to navigate and shipping updates were frequent and accurate.
Works great for my bike rack and my cargo holder. I get comments on it and highly recommend it to others. Whenever I get a new car that doesn’t have a hitch. It will be the first thing I buy.
I was very happy with my order and transaction with etrailer.com. I got exactly what i was looking for at a good price, but what I loved most was their fabulous customer service, particularly during this time dealing with businesses limited by the Coronavirus. I had a concern as to whether my order went through, but I received a very quick response, by phone, reassuring me it did. I received my item (a hitch for a bike rack for my Subaru Impreza) in just a couple of days and had my mechanic mount it today. Looks great! Very inconspicuous!
Great customer service fast shipping easy install took me about 40 mins
So far so good after install on a 2018 Subaru Impreza (5door). Only use has been for the 1Up bike rack. No issues, installation was a piece of cake.

absolutely no issues. I did have a shop install it so cant comment on the installation, but i forget its on my car unless actually using it for the bike rack, which i consider to be a good thing.
SEEMS STURDY --- NOW INSTALLED ON MY 2022 SUBARU IMPRESA WAGON.
HAD TO DRILL OUT HOLES AS EXPLAINED IN THE DIRECTIONS
Arrived super quickly and it was an easy install, got it on in a day with one trip to the hardware store. It’s sturdy and looks sleek on my Impreza

The hitch does look sleek, Sofya! I also have to mention that I love your bumper stickers. Me and a coworker were trying to decipher what the one in the middle says.
Came quickly and was pretty easy to install. I did it in about 40 minutes. The fish wire was very effective.
Perfect hitch for our 2018 Subaru Impreza sport. Not only was it easy to install, but it looks good, the price was on point, shipping took 2 days to arrive, and its literally the perfect hitch to haul a bike rack with. Oh, and the customer service was amazing. I actually can't believe how good their customer service has been throughout the process. I will definitely be recommending them to everyone from now on.

We have sold the car that the hitch was installed on. Might have to purchase a new one for the new car we bought.
