Features to know about

Carry More Gear for Everyday Adventures: 4,000 lbs GTW and 600 lbs TW

This Class III hitch is built to handle real work and weekend fun. With a 4,000-lb gross trailer weight rating and a 600-lb tongue weight limit, it’s ready for multi-bike racks, cargo platforms, small campers, or boat trailers. The 2" receiver opening gives you the most common size for towing accessories, so you can hook up what you already own without fussing with adapters.

Built to Last Through the Elements: Matte Black Powder Coat Finish

The matte black carbide finish gives this hitch a rugged look while protecting it from corrosion, road debris, and weather. The fourth layer of powder coating adds extra defense against rust and helps hide dirt and scuffs better than a glossy surface. It stays looking sharp even after miles of towing and outdoor use.

Make Installation Simple: Bolt-On Design Using Factory Mounting Points

No drilling or welding here—this hitch bolts directly to existing frame attachment points for an easy install. The included hardware kit and clear instructions make it a solid choice for DIY setups in your driveway. The square-tube design keeps things sturdy while fitting cleanly against the underside for a tight, factory-style appearance.

Ready for Racks, Carriers, and Trailers: Standard 2" Receiver

Whether you’re hauling bikes to the trailhead, adding a cargo basket for road trips, or connecting a utility trailer, this hitch’s 2" x 2" receiver fits most towing gear out there. Its sturdy build and reinforced design keep your setup stable mile after mile so you can load up with confidence.

Perfect fit for my wife’s 2023 Kia Sorento. Was pretty easy to install. Kinda heavy so extra hand would help when installing the bolts but other then that super happy with this purchase. Built out of some great quality steel. 100% recommend

  • Trailer Hitch and Wiring Recommendation for 2025 Hyundai Santa Fe
    Hey Eric, I am not seeing any other messages from you so I wonder if there was maybe a typo in your email address. But anyway for a hitch the etrailer part # e24ZV would be a great option for your 2025 Hyundai Santa Fe. Then for trailer wiring the Curt # C29ZV would work great too. I attached links below with current pricing as well.

  • Recommended Hitch for a 2025 Hyundai Santa Fe Hybrid?

It has a 600 lbs tongue weight, I really like the Curt Hitch item # C37RV because the main crosstube mounts behind the rear bumper leaving only the 2" receiver and safety chain loops...

  • What is Difference Between Curt, etrailer, and TowSmart Hitch for 2026 Hyundai Santa Fe
    He Jason, all three of the hitches for the 2026 Hyundai Santa Fe that we offer are really solid options. We have the Curt # C37RV, the etrailer # e24ZV, and the # TowSmart part # TS44ZR. Overall the designs are incredibly similar so they are all going to work just as well as the other. So if it was me making this decision I would go with whichever is priced best at the time. Looks like the Curt wins currently. Will you be doing some towing?
