When you need extra space for bikes or cargo, the 2" x 2" receiver on this TowSmart hitch makes it easy to hook up what you need. It supports up to 300 lbs of tongue weight and 3,000 lbs of trailer weight, so you can carry a loaded cargo rack or tow a small trailer without worrying about stability. It’s a solid setup for bike racks, cargo carriers, or small utility loads that keep your trips simple and organized.
This hitch is made from fully welded, powder-coated steel that stands up to rust and corrosion. The round-tube design adds strength while keeping a clean look beneath the bumper. Whether you’re hauling gear for work or heading out on an adventure, it’s built to handle daily use and stay looking good over time.
You don’t need a shop lift or fancy tools to get this hitch mounted. It bolts right on using existing hardware—no drilling or welding required. The fit is straightforward and makes it possible to take on the install yourself, getting you ready to tow without spending all weekend doing it.
Road grime and weather can be tough on metal, but the glossy powder coat finish helps protect this hitch from rust and wear. That means season after season of reliable performance and a hitch that keeps working as strong as the day you put it on.

Perfect fit on my ID.4. 10min install with existing hardware.
Easy to install on my 2023 ID4 pro S no need for adapter so everything is way more solid!!!
I called and spoke to Josh who answered every question clearly. He helped me choosing the right item and the install took like ten minutes! thank you for the support!
Fits perfectly
Works great, easy to install.
Bolted right on. this didn't come with any instructions but I had a quick chat with sales who quickly got me the torque spec for the mounting bolts (86 ft-lbs if you need to know)
With some effort I removed the 1.25" receiver that was standard equipment for our car. The 2" receiver fit perfectly. Now we're ready to haul e-bikes.
10 minute install. Great addition for bike rack vs the 1 1/4”. Etrailer is awesome. Always shop here first when I can.
Perfect fit for the stock 2026 ID4 hitch. Swapped out the 1 1/4” hitch receiver with this 2” in about 5 min.
