Features to know about

Carry Bikes and Gear Safely: Class I 1-1/4" Receiver Built for Light-Duty Use

For bike racks, cargo trays, or small trailers, this hitch gives you the flexibility to bring your gear along without overloading your setup. Rated for 2,000 lbs maximum gross trailer weight and 200 lbs maximum tongue weight, it’s perfect for everyday towing or hauling lightweight accessories. A stabilizing strap (#18050) can be added for extra support when carrying bikes or other hitch-mounted gear, helping control sway and protect the frame and accessories.

Install It Yourself Without Hassle: Custom Fit and Bolt-On Design

This hitch is made for a precise fit so the bolt holes line up right where they should. There’s no welding required, and all the necessary installation hardware is included. The simple bolt-on setup works well for DIY installs in a driveway with basic tools. Once mounted, the receiver sits solid and ready for towing or carrying accessories.

Built to Last with Tough Steel Construction: Gloss Black Powder Coat Finish

The fully welded steel construction delivers dependable strength for light towing jobs. A gloss black powder coat over a protective base coat fights rust and corrosion even after years of use. The round-tube design adds a clean look that blends well with your vehicle’s rear end instead of standing out.

Ready for Accessories When You Need Them: Works with Ball Mounts and Cargo Carriers

Whether you’re towing a small trailer or hauling extra gear, this 1-1/4" x 1-1/4" receiver works with standard Class I ball mounts, bike racks, and cargo carriers. Drawbar, pin, and clip are sold separately so you can set it up exactly how you want it for each trip.

2011 Hyundai Elantra

I started with the Draw-Tite product for my 2011 Hyundai Touring, but it wouldn't fit. If you're wanting a hitch, the Curt is really your only option. I used a hydraulic jack to keep the hitch in place, while putting in the bolts and I didn't have any issues. There's only one thing that is an absolute necessity - before trying to install the bolts, you must clean them out with a round pipe brush and a WD-40 like spray. There is rust and other junk in the weld nuts, and cleaning them gets rid if this. I destroyed two brushes doing this work, as the bolts would not go in the nuts without the cleaning.

Great service from start to finish and a user friendly install to boot!
Thank you!

by: Jonathan Magee 09/27/2011

require any modifications to the vehicle. The hardest thing was getting it lined up with the holes in the frame. I would recommend having a one person to hold the hitch up while another puts the bolts in.

2014 Hyundai Elantra

Product fitted perfectly on 2014 Hyundai Elantra Touring hatchback. Installation was quick and easy.

Received the package in good order. UPS had set something down on it which crushed the cardboard but it did not damage the hitch. The welding looked GREAT and the black finish was perfect. I noticed the drain holes in the cross tube so that water inside the tube could get out. Good feature.
It took me about four hours to install; however, I do not have a fully equipped shop, just my household garage and hand tools and being 81 years old slows me down more than a little. I still have to get the bolts torqued to 48 lb-ft but I will have the Hyundai dealer do that for me. As other reviewers have noted, the most time was spent lining up the holes in the hitch to the weld-nuts on the Hyundai frame. I finally used chalk to make marks on the frame and on the hitch so that I had something to guide on - trying to see black holes on black steel and a black car frame is difficult. I made vertical and horizontal marks lined up with the center of the frame holes and also on the hitch with those holes. I used a rolling car jack to lift the hitch and hold it while I struggled with getting the bolts started. First lining up the holes with a soda straw helped. Oh, and I cleaned out the holes and pre-lubed with WD-40 as the instruction video suggested. Persistance paid off and I finally got all four bolts in and snugged down. I tightened them as far as the tools would allow but i know they have to be tightened again before towing anything.
I have requested technical support in purchasing the drawbar and ball. When that comes in, the bolts are properly torqued, and I get the wiring kit installed, I should be good to go.

sons car. It was an effortless job taking less than 30 minutes. A perfect fit. A heavy duty top quality item that will provide good service for years.
From ordering, to a 3 day delivery, to installation it was a pleasant experience. I highly recommend this product for its quality and e trailer for its first class service.

2010 Hyundai Elantra

This hitch cam came well packed and finished in a nice gloss black paint. All the hardware was there. It fit perfectly with no modifications necessary to my 2010 Elantra Touring. No need to drop exhaust. I installed it myself by lifting it in to position with a small floor jack. Two people might be nice if no jack.

by: Scott S 11/13/2011

be damaged in shipping. You do not need to drop the exhaust or do any customization work to install the hitch. The best thing to do is grab a friend to help you slip the hitch into place. It took 10 minutes to install this way. The hitch is solid and looks great.

by: Frank D. 09/18/2010

Like the most: The Curt hitch does not require the removal of anything to install.
Like the least: The bolts supplied do not have a self centering feature. They are put in from the side with no visibility to the mounting holes in the car frame. With no centering taper on the end of the bolts, things must align EXACTLY before the bolts will start. Nut you can't see the holes in the car frame and must do it by feel. That turned a 5 minute job into a half hour job real quick!

by: Sanka 03/04/2022 One Year Later

Installed on my Hyundai Elantra Touring. It needs a 2 inch to 1.25 converter since most bike racks are 2 inches, but held steady and lets me take both bikes on swooping turns in the mountains! I dont even know its there.

by: Alex 04/11/2022 One Year Later

Easy enough to install, still firmly attached after a year+

by: Andy W 09/03/2011

done. I did it by myself on my back and it only took about 10 minutes. Great product-thanks

by: John 01/27/2021

I am very happy with this company. Emily was most helpful and knowledgeable. Hitch came when expected and was perfect.
Thanks

Trailer Hitch for 2011 Hyundai Elantra Touring
After confirming with Curt they do have a hitch that specifically fits the touring model of the 2011 Hyundai Elantra. That is the Curt hitch part # C11471.

This is a 2 bike rack and has a tilting feature for easier trunk access.

Can the Curt Stabilization Strap be Used on a Platform Style Kuat Bike Carrier
The Kuat NV, # NV12G as an example, and the Sherpa, # SH12B as examples, are platform style carriers that hold the bikes at the wheels and would not be the best bike racks when using stabilization strap # 18050 with a Curt trailer hitch # C11471 on your 2009 Hyundai Elantra. Curt does not provide instructions on how you would attach the strap to this type of bike rack so you would basically need to attach it anywhere that you could.

Trailer Hitch for a 2010 Hyundai Elantra Sedan
We have a hitch for your 2010 Hyundai Elantra Sedan. It is the Draw-Tite Sportframe Hitch, part # 24795. In comparison to the Curt hitch for the 2010 Elantra, part # C11471, the Draw-Tite has an easier install, has a concealed cross tube, and is more highly-rated overall.

Function of Stabilizing Straps Recommended for Curt Trailer Hitch C11471
The strap referred to for the # C11471 trailer hitch, part # 18050, would be used as an extra stabilizer for the bike rack or accessory.

This # 18050 strap is recommended to prevent extra sway due to the low tongue weight capacity of the class I hitch, in order to maintain the hitch warranty and also to provide extra support to prevent damage...

Trailer Hitch and Bike Racks for a 2012 Hyundai Elantra Built in Korea
I spoke with my contact at Curt and he said the extra hole that needs to be drilled for Korean built 2012 Hyundai Elantras is for the sedan model only. If your 2012 Hyundai Elantra is touring 5 door model, then the extra hole does not apply and the Curt Hitch, part # C11471, will work for your vehicle with no drilling required. This hitch includes a draw bar, pin and clip, so you would just need a 1-7/8 inch hitch ball, # 19257, or a 2 inch hitch ball, #19258, and wiring harness, #118473,...
