Question:
Thank you for your reply and the useful information, I want to buy 2 hitches, one for the 2015 Prius Plugin and one for my wife's 2013 Prius (non-plugin). Would you recommend getting the same Curt C11276 for both cars, or the Draw-Tite for the 2013 Prius. I will be using the hitch for attaching a Kuat Sherpa bicycle rack.

Expert Reply:
We have one trailer hitch that is designed to work with the 2015 Toyota Prius Plug-In Hybrid. That trailer hitch is the Curt Hitch, part # C11276. This is a Class l hitch and it has a 1-1/4 inch receiver opening.
All non-trailer loads - bike racks, cargo carriers and so forth - should be supported with stabilizing straps, like part # 18050. Failure to properly support these loads will void your hitch warranty from Curt.
The Draw-Tite hitch, part # 60263 is designed to fit the Prius and Prius V models and will not work with the Plug-In Hybrid.
