Features to know about

Carry Your Bikes or Gear Without the Hassle: 2" Class III Receiver

This hitch gives you a 2" x 2" receiver opening that’s ready for the gear you already use. It works great for bike racks, cargo carriers, or small trailers rated up to 3,500 lbs gross trailer weight and 350 lbs tongue weight. When used with weight distribution, it’s rated for 4,000 lbs GTW and 400 lbs TW. Whether you’re loading up for a weekend ride or hauling a small camper, it’s built to handle everyday towing jobs with strength and stability.

Get a Rugged Look That Lasts: Matte Black Powder Coat Finish

The matte black powder coat over a protective base coat doesn’t just look good—it helps fight rust and corrosion while hiding dirt and scuffs better than glossy finishes. The round-tube design gives it a clean, factory-style appearance that blends in under the bumper. You won’t have to worry about chips from road debris or fading over time—the finish is made to stay tough through years of use.

No complaints, still working fine.



by:

Great fit, easy install, there's a little rust showing up after a year, but otherwise it's been excellent.



by:

I’ve seen many reviews how the box was literally destroyed when delivered and so was mine. Not sure of the solution of packaging it different but the product was fine and all the hardware was with it. Happy with the purchase.



by:

45 minutes and I was driving down the road. Fit the car perfectly.thanks Jack !!!



by:

Great product, installed easily with two people. Shipping was a day later than promised which caused vacation delay.



by:

looks good



by:

Fits perfect and did not take long to install. Their installation videos really helped.



by:

I would have given 5-stars, but the driver side mounting flange did not line up with the vehicle mounting holes. I had to bend it about 3/8"-1/2" in toward the vehicle center. Once I did that, it fit perfectly. The installation was very straightforward.



by:

Amazing fit, wonderful quality. Shipped free and paid a reasonable price for hitch. They had two videos for the Toyota venza installation, AWD and FWD. so helpful, 100% recommend. Shipping was as well fast.



by:

I have to say that I was a little skeptical, but I needed a way to pull a trailer with my 2014 Venza. I bit the bullet and ordered the custom hitch and Boy was I surprised! The instructions were great! I had all the tools I needed and I installed it in 1 hr & 10 min. Couldn’t be happier!



by:

Ordered on March 8th — received March 12th— installed on 2010 Venza March 14, 2024.
We live in central Washington State and we received this really solid hitch receiver much quicker than anticipated.
A very helpful pleasant lady at E-Trailer answered our
question's, took our order and sent the receiver right away.
We’ll use the receiver for our bikes.
Great service, very solid “ #e22AR “ and easy to install :-)

I installed this hitch on my 2012 Toyota Venza. The fit was perfect and it was extremely easy to install.

Terrific! No regrets. I wish that I would have done it sooner.



by:

Shipper mis handled, box split and seems 2 plates missing. All bolts were taped to hitch so ok. Fit was great to vehicle factory flanges in frame rail.



by:

Used this to move from Kansas to California. It held several hundred pounds for months with no issue. I'm still using it today for smaller hauls. Great product!



by:

This is my sixth hitch from etrailer. Just like all the others, it arrived on time and in good shape.



by:

Easy to install and all the necessary parts were included!



by:

Perfect fit.



by:

Easy install, exact fit



by:

Perfect fit for my 2014 Venza :)



by:

Fits perfectly. Solid design. Comes with all needed hardware and information for installation. The trickiest part was removing the stickers that cover up the pre existing welded nuts on the car’s frame.



by:

Very easy install with the videos provided on etrailers website. Overall im very happy with this purchase and would definitely buy for my other vehicles.

Perfect fit! Easy installation

  • 2016 Toyota Venza Trailer Hitch Recommendation for Carrying Bike Rack
    To carry your Thule Hitching Post Pro Bike Rack # TH934XTR I recommend installing the etrailer Trailer Hitch Receiver # e22AR on your 2016 Toyota Venza because it has a durable, yet sleek looking, matte black finish. All of the other hitches for your vehicle use a glossy black powder coat which initially has more of a shine to it but it won't hold up to damage from road debris as well as the matte black coating will.

  • 2016 Toyota Venza Bike Rack and Trailer Hitch Recommendations for 4 Bikes
    I recommend installing the etrailer Trailer Hitch Receiver # e22AR 2016 Toyota Venza so we can get you set up with a hitch mounted bike rack. Then for a bike rack I really like the Thule Apex Swing XT # TH9027XT because it allows you to swing the rack out of the way so you get full hatch access without having to remove any of the bikes. The swinging feature is really simple to use as well which is another reason I like this rack. A lot of the racks that have the swinging feature are a...
