Features to know about

Haul Light Loads with Confidence: Class I Strength and 1-1/4" Receiver

This hitch gives you solid everyday utility for light towing and accessory use. With a Class I rating, 2,000 lbs maximum gross trailer weight, and 200 lbs maximum tongue weight, it's built for smaller trailers, cargo carriers, and bike racks. The 1-1/4" x 1-1/4" receiver opening matches most light-duty mounts and racks designed for compact setups. Precision, robotic welding keeps everything tight and strong so you can count on it every time you tow.

Enjoy a Clean Look That Doesn’t Stick Out: Concealed Cross Tube Design

Once installed, only the receiver tube is visible. The cross tube hides behind the bumper for a cleaner appearance that blends in with the vehicle’s lines. The sturdy square-tube design keeps the hitch tucked up high, helping with ground clearance while giving a simple, factory-style finish that doesn’t distract from your vehicle’s look.

DIY Installation Made Simple: Bolt-On Fit with Included Hardware

This custom-fit hitch is designed specifically for your vehicle and lines up with existing attachment points, so there’s no welding or specialty tools required. It comes with a complete hardware kit and clear instructions to make the job straightforward in a driveway setup. Bolt it in place, torque it down properly, and it’s ready to work.

Built to Last Through Weather and Road Grime: Gloss Black Powder Coat Finish

The fully welded steel construction is protected by a gloss black powder coat layered over a base coating for superior rust resistance. The finish stands up well to road salt and moisture while keeping a clean appearance over time. It’s built to handle real use—whether you’re towing a small trailer, hauling gear for the weekend, or mounting up a bike rack for your next ride.

Perfect fit, set up and install were quite easy. Removing the bumper and putting all back together takes about 1hr 1/2 alone for one person. Happy with the product specifically for Toyota CH-R. Thanks for the new trailer hitch!



by:

Great hitch and was easy for me to install using the video.
I was offered faster shipping from etrailer on the other CHR compatible Curt C11567.
Etrailer could not tell me the difference so I talked to Curt. The C11490 is end welded - bar to the end plate. The C11567 is thru welded to the end plate so the end of the bar goes thru the end plate and the bar end is open to the elements. Not sure why etrailer technicians list the C11567 as a 5/10 install compared to a more complex 10/10 for the C11490. Curt indicated the install is the same.



by:

This hitch was not a quick install, but the etrailer instructions and video made it straight forward task that only took time. After the install the hitch was completely hidden and only the receiver could be seen. It was perfect for my bike rack on the back of the small Toyota CH-R. Thank you!!



by:

Perfect Fit, Thank You.
And Thank You
for the excellent installation instructions
and the video. As you can imagine it is a little scary taking
apart a brand new car to install a hitch so the instructions
and the video were invaluble. This is the 2nd or 3rd time I
bought from etrailer.com and No Regrets.

  • Is There A Way To Transport A Shoprider 6Runner 10 Powerchair With A 2019 Toyota C-HR XLE?
    Hi Chrystal! You are indeed going to want a hitch for towing a small trailer. The hitches we have available for your 2019 Toyota C-HR XLE are going to Class 1 options with the 1-1/4" receiver, so there aren't any cargo carriers that a big enough to accommodate the chair, unfortunately. I found the specs for the Shoprider 6Runner 10 Powerchair, thanks for giving me the model, and it looks like it weighs 176 pounds and is 24" wide by 40" long. The closest option we have to that is the Curt...

  • Does 2019 Toyota CH-R Have Towing Capacity for Hauling 414 lb Motorcycle
    Hey Gunil, so most likely you are fine but the long answer is that tongue weight is just the weight that vertically pushes down on the ball mount of your vehicle so it's typically only about 10-15 percent of the total weight of the trailer. So if your tongue weight capacity is 200 lbs that would mean that the total weight of the trailer you could tow would be around 2,000 lb. Since your bike only weighs 414 lb that leaves you with around 1,600 lb of trailer weight left over. Do you know...

  • Best Trailer Hitch for 2019 Toyota CH-R To Carry Bike Rack
    The best trailer hitch for your 2019 Toyota CH-R to carry a bike rack is, hands-down, the Curt Trailer Hitch # C11490 because it gives your bike rack the most ground clearance. When we test fit the Curt hitch and (now discontinued) Draw-Tite Trailer Hitch 24962 on a Toyota CH-R, we found that the Curt hitch offered about 3/4" more in ground clearance, and you can see the difference in how both hitches fit in the accompanying photo. While 3/4" may not seem like much, it can mean the difference...

  • Comparing Curt Hitches C11567 and C11490 for a 2019 Toyota C-HR
    The Curt Trailer Hitch Receiver part # C11567 and part # C11490 which are both fits for a 2019 Toyota C-HR are the same for intents and purposes. I recommend going with whichever is more cost effective at the time. The former hitch however is compatible with a Toyota Corolla as well but that is it as far as differences go.

  • Installation of Trailer Hitch on 2018 Toyota C-HR
    When installing the Curt # C11490 trailer hitch, underbody panels must be temporarily removed, as does fascia, although it does get reinstalled, as you can see in the instructions for the Curt hitch that I added. The modification that does need to be done is to the tabs on the end of the bumper beam, which need to be flattened down to ensure they are flush, which you can see in the cutout of the instructions.

  • Recommended Trailer Hitch Receiver and Towing Components for 2018 Toyota C-HR
    For your 2018 Toyota C-HR, I recommend the Curt Trailer Hitch Receiver - Custom Fit - Class I - 1-1/4" # C11490 along with the T-One Vehicle Wiring Harness with 4-Pole Flat Trailer Connector # 118756 and the ball mount # C45521. I like the clean look of this hitch. The recommended parts above will give you a towing system when you add a hitch ball like # A-80 for 1-7/8 inch diameter or # A-82 for a 2 inch diameter along with a pin and clip # F-4.

  • Parts Needed to Tow Small Trailer with Motorcycle with 2018 Toyota C-HR
    Your vehicle's owner's manual is always going to be the best source to find towing capacity, but from what I could find in my own research the towing capacity is going to be roughly 1300-lbs. Based off that, you would be able to tow a small trailer with a motorcycle. For a hitch I recommend using the Curt # C11490 because the concealed design it going to help give you a bit more ground clearance, which will be especially helpful for a smaller couple like the C-HR. For a complete towing...

  • What is Difference Between Curt Hitches that Fit 2021 Toyota C-HR
    For your 2021 Toyota C-HR the two hitches are basically the same which is very interesting but the difference between them is very subtle which allows the # C11490 to fit all models of the 2018 to 2021 Toyota C-HR whereas the # C11567 happens to also fit the 2019 through 2021 Toyota Corolla hatchbacks as well as the C-HR models. So honestly Curt probably should have just the one part number but they have both.

  • Recommended Trailer Hitch Receiver For 2018 Toyota CH-R
    For this vehicle, I recommend the Draw-Tite Sportframe Trailer Hitch Receiver - Custom Fit - Class I - 1-1/4" # 24962 which installs at the same location as the Curt hitch # C11490 which is a fit for this vehicle. This hitch install requires the removal of the bumper/fascia to install the hitch prior to reinstalling the bumper/fascia. I have attached an install video for you. To carry an unsupported load like a bike rack or hitch cargo carrier Curt hitch requiring a stability strap...

  • Finding Someone to Install 2020 Toyota C-HR
    For your 2020 Toyota C-HR both the Curt hitch # C11490 and the # C11567 are a confirmed fit and are essentially the same thing. To find an installer in your area the best solution would be to check with local mechanics to you with a good reputation and allow them to install the hitch.

  • Trailer Hitch & Hitch Mount Bike Rack
    Your 2019 Toyota C-HR is only compatible with Class I hitch receivers. This will limit you to carrying just two bikes. The hitch receiver that I recommend is the one you attached to your question, the Curt Trailer Hitch Receiver - Custom Fit - Class I - 1-1/4", part # C11490. I like this hitch receiver because once it is installed you can only see the receiver opening. This hitch receiver has a maximum tongue weight of 200 lbs and a maximum gross trailer weight of 2,000 lbs. If you are...
