Features to know about

Bring More Capability to Your Vehicle: 2" Trailer Hitch Receiver for Everyday Use

With a 2,500 lbs maximum gross trailer weight and 250 lbs maximum tongue weight, this hitch is built for small trailers, cargo carriers, and bike racks. The 2" x 2" receiver opening is the standard size for most hitch-mounted accessories, so you can take your gear wherever you need without hunting for adapters. Whether it’s a weekend camping trip or hauling tools from the store, it’s ready to handle light-duty towing and everyday hauling jobs.

Simple DIY Installation: Bolt-On Design with No Welding Required

You don’t need a shop or specialty tools to get this hitch installed. It bolts directly to the frame using included mounting hardware—no drilling or welding needed. The precision, robotic welding means the holes line up cleanly with the frame, helping the hitch fit exactly as it should. Even if you’re working in a driveway with basic tools, you can get it mounted and ready for use in one session.

Built to Last in Tough Conditions: Fully Welded Steel with Gloss Black Powder Coat

The sturdy steel construction and glossy black powder coat give this hitch strength and corrosion resistance for years of use. A protective base coat sits under the finish to keep rust at bay, even when exposed to rain or road salt. The round-tube design adds a clean look under the bumper while keeping everything strong and secure for towing or rack use.

After a local muffler shop declined to attempt the installation, I tackled it myself. Dropping and reinstalling the dual muffler system was the hard part—installing the hitch receiver by myself went just as described in the instructions and needed only patience, dexterity, and a jack to lift and hold the receiver in place (I’ve worked on cars my whole life.). After a year, the receiver is holding up well with no signs of rust.

The install video is great! Follow the suggestions made there and you’re good to go. Definitely helpful if you can get the car on ramps/blocks for more clearance.

For the top carriage bolts, the key is to have ALL the bracket mounting bolts very loose—as in only a few threads engaged in the frame rail. This allows shifting the brackets and hitch side to side to give sufficient clearance for those tight top carriage bolts. If you don’t have everything very loose you won’t fit those top ones.

The trimming guide in the video is also spot on. Don’t cut all the way through that forward most rib. That’ll keep the trim in one piece now with the notch for the hitch.

The hitch is working great. The install video was AMAZINGLY helpful as well as the supplying the bolt feeder wire thingie. So much better than getting the one sheet installation instructions that dont help at all. Great product and great install video.

@PeteW Thanks for the awesome review Pete! I am happy to hear that the install went smoothly, that is always a great feeling. What do you mainly use the hitch for?

by: Oliver 01/27/2025 One Year Later

I got a friend to install it and he said it was straightforward. It's been solid for holding my Kuat bike rack. Was bent in a rear-end collision but insurance replaced it with the same hitch and I am happy with it.

Hi Oliver, I hope there weren't any injuries sustained from the rear-ending accident! I'm glad to hear insurance covered it. Do you have a favorite place you like to ride?

There is a small amount of rust on the hitch where the rack slides in but the hitch still holds strong and does what it should do.

by: Matt 12/14/2024 One Year Later

I've been using this receiver hitch for about a year. It's been great! Installation was as expected, I just followed their instructions plus looked at a couple more on YouTube and everything went as planned. I use it mostly for a hitch bike rack but I also occasionally pull my small bike+kayak trailer. My car has very low clearance so I had to add a hitch riser but that's about the car, not the hitch's fault. It's been flawless! Easy enough install and perfect functionality.

Hey Matt! Looks like plenty of adventures in the horizon are now unlocked with the hitch!

by: Csaba 01/27/2023

The installation went flowless. To make the installation easier, we lifted the car up and removed the large undercover, mudflap and even the rear tires.
My only complaint is that there was no hole for my previously bought U-shaped lockpin (for my 2020 Hyundai Tucson), so I had to drill a hole.

It is excellent

by: Phil 12/31/2022

2022 Hyundai Ioniq 5

I really liked that this hitch could be installed on my Ioniq 5 without the painful process of removing the bumper and cutting a notch in that expensive piece. The installation went well even though the picture quality in the instructions was a bit poor. As suggested I removed a few extra bolts and lowered the rear underbody panel. Also I removed the small rear wheel mudflaps to give easier access to the mounting bolt area. I haven't cut the opening in the under-bumper filler trim yet as I need to call Curt for some clarification on where to make the cut. Instructions indicate cutting a rectangular hole but it appears the only viable way to reinstall that filler is to make a U cut. Otherwise, a fairly quick job! And the product itself is a high-quality substantial piece of kit.

After one year this has proven be a solid product and an exdellent design. As the reviews stated, its easy to take on and off of the car. Seems like solid construction, so hopefully I'll have the same opionion after a few years.

Note: in my experience the installation was not the big deal which the manufacturer and etrailer make it out to be. i.e., that one needs to choose an installer from their (very short) recommended list. I brought it around the corner to my regular mechanic. Piece of cake. Since I'm only using it for a bike wrack, I had it installed without the electric harness connection. But ultimately my mechanic could have done that, too. For a few extra bucks. So check with your mechanic before you fall into the black hole of U-Haul installers, et. al.

Excellent product, curtis has been the last 4 hitches I’ve purchased and All of them have been on the money with fit and finish. The paint lasts much longer than the U-Haul I used to get installed, and the installation has been done by me with minimal sweating and only a skinned knuckle. This one fits just right, all hardware accounted for, and gives me the freedom I need to attach things or tow with my Ioniq 5.

2023 Hyundai Ioniq 5

Great video available for install. Only took a few hours, including trimming the underbody trim piece. Looks good.

I wish the actual receiver was a tiny bit higher and aligned with the bottom of the bumper cover. It would give valuable clearance where every quarter inch counts when a rack is attached and you encounter ramped driveways and such.

by: Wren 02/26/2025 One Year Later

Installed on a 2023 Hyundai Ioniq. Drove from Ohio to Florida and back with two bikes on the rack, no issues. Good hitch.

by: Mark 01/20/2024 One Year Later

I really like this hitch that I bought for my 2022 Ioniq 5. I did the install myself without raising the car and I can tell you it was a very tight and tough install. Great hitch, but I recommend lifting the car and having a helper. e-Trailer had the hitch I needed and at a fair price.

by: Richard 10/16/2023

Will be using hitch for a bike rack on 2023 Hyundai Ioniq 5.
Hitch was great except for one thing. There are 3 mounting holes on each side of the hitch that connect it to the left & right mounting brackets. I was able to get the carriage bolts in the lower holes and the upper front holes with the fish wires, but there was no way I could get bolts in the upper rear holes. There is just not enough clearance, I tried loosening the mounting brackets but no go! I used other bolts I had from the outside and was able to get the nuts on from the inside. Maybe Curt should make all the carriage bolts mount from the outside and nuts from the inside! Other than that, I really like the hitch. Also the pictures on the instructions were too dark to see anything!

This is a very sturdy hitch, the second one that I have purchased.

This is my 3rd or 4th hitch from ETRAILER. They have a good variety of hitches and tow parts, great pricing and knowledgeable staff. Shipping was quick.

by: christopher 10/28/2024 One Year Later

Documentation was great. I installed this myself without lifting the car. Ionic 5. It wasn't easy that way but possible to keep it very simple. The Hitch is quite low so make sure whatever you are putting in it doesn't hang lower or even to far out straight. The Hitch is great otherwise.

by: Thomas 06/04/2025

2024 Hyundai Ioniq 5

Installed on Ioniq 5 like it was custom fit. Great instructions and all hardware was included. Needed to lift car using ramps to get access. Some bolts were a tight fit but doable by keeping all hitch bolts loose until all were installed.

by: Jason 11/21/2023 One Year Later

This hitch was installed by our dealer. There were no issues installing it on our Ioniq 5. So far the hitch is working fine and we haven't had any issues.

Hitch works great and is very stable on the car… it is a bit low to the ground and will bump on steep driveways, but that’s the trade off with this design. I installed it myself on a Hyundai Ioniq 5 and it took a couple of hours start to finish

by: James 11/04/2024 One Year Later

Bought the hitch for my 2023 Hyundai IONIQ 5 and installed it myself. Have had it in service for about a year works great. Didn't have to remove bumper to install. Did have to cut part of one trim piece but it was easy. "2023 Hyundai IONIQ 5 hitch install" YouTube video shows how but I was able to install without removing wheels. Also a great YouTube video for installing wiring harness is "Ioniq 5 trailer wiring harness install the easy way! Don’t break that car" Good Luck!

Hitch Reducer for 2024 Hyundai Ioniq 5 to Use Thule Bike Rack
Hey Julie, since all of the hitches that fit your 2024 Hyundai Ioniq 5 are 2 inch in size like the Curt # C98DR what you would need is a hitch reducer to allow bike rack to be used like the Curt # C45770 and you'd be set. Normally the 2 inch hitch size is preferred since it has higher capacities and has the most accessories made for it which is why it's so popular.

Trailer Hitch For Hyundai Ioniq5 And Volkswagen ID4 - Is Bumper Trimming Required?
Hello Yutaka, thanks for reaching out. As far as the Hyundai Ioniq5 goes, all of the hitches will require trimming of the plastic underbody panel. There is not a hitch available for this vehicle that requires no trimming. For the Volkswagen ID4, all of the hitches will require trimming of the underbody panel and/or bumper fascia. For the ID4, the hitch also requires temporary removal of the bumper, and permanent removal of the impact structure. I do know that Volkswagen offers an OEM hitch...

Hello Peter, I am going to let you in on a little secret but you can't tell anyone.

Recommended Hitch for a 2024 Hyundai Ioniq 5
To add a hitch to your 2024 Hyundai Ioniq 5, I recommend the Curt item # C98DR. This hitch is custom fit and bolts to your Hyundai with included hardware. This is a class III hitch with a 2" receiver. It has a 2,500 lbs towing capacity and a 200 lbs maximum tongue weight. I really like the Curt hitch item # C98DR because the crosstube mounts behind your rear bumper cover leaving only the 2" receiver exposed. This not only looks better but it helps with ground clearance. If you are planning...

Does The Curt Trailer Hitch Receiver # C98DR for 2023 Hyundai Ioniq 5 Reduce Ground Clearance?
The Curt Trailer Hitch Receiver # C98DR for your 2023 Hyundai Ioniq 5 will not reduce your ground clearance since it sits higher than the axle components on your Hyundai. It will affect your departure angle due to hanging below the rear bumper. This may be noticible on driveways which have a steep angle from the street. I have included an image below sent in with a review showing how the receiver sits above the rear axle so you will not have to be concerned with ground clearance being lower....

How to Trim Underbody Panel When Installing Curt Hitch on 2022 Hyundai Ioniq 5
When finishing up the installation of your # C98DR you will completely remove the outlined section of the underbody panel. This will leave you with two separate panels to go on either side of the receiver. Make sure you measure 1-1/2" in from each of the mounting holes so you are still able to reattach the panels after trimming.

To carry 2 fat tire e-bikes with your 2022 Hyundai Ioniq 5 you need to install the Cust 2" Trailer Hitch Receiver # C98DR so you can use a platform style bike rack. For a bike rack I recommend using the Hollywood Racks Sport Rider SE Bike Rack for 2 Electric Bikes # HLY84FR which can handle 80 lb bikes with up to 5" wide tires. This uses arms that secure the bike in the middle of the frame so if you don't have a horizontal top tube you'll also need an Adapter Bar # HRBA-PRO for each bike. Attached...
