Expert Reply:
There are a few trailer hitch options for the 2017 Toyota Rav4. All the available systems are confirmed to fit the Hybrid models as well.
I recommend the Curt Class III Round Tube Receiver Hitch # C13149 because installation of this hitch does not require trimming or removal of your vehicle's underbody panel. This is a 2 inch receiver opening with a 525 lb tongue weight capacity that is custom fit for your RAV4 Hybrid, eliminating the need for drilling. Always check the tongue weight capacity of your vehicle as listed in the owner's manual, as this will likely be the limiting factor. I have included an installation video on a Toyota RAV4 for your review.
If you are looking to tow with your trailer hitch, I also recommend the Curt T-Connector Vehicle Wiring Harness # C56350. This harness is custom fit for your vehicle and will plug directly into existing wiring to provide the 4-way flat trailer connector needed to power your trailer's rear lights.
Lastly I have included a link to our ball mount selection and a helpful article about choosing the correct one for your towing setup.
