Expert Reply:
There is not a 2 inch receiver available for a 2011 Impala. Only the 1-1/4 inch options like the Draw-Tite # 36407 and the Curt # C12252. Both of these hitches have a rated tongue weight of 300 lbs and towing capacity of 3500 lbs, so even with the smaller receiver, they can still handle some weight and are usable for light-duty towing.
If you will be using this hitch receiver for towing, I recommend the Class II Drawbar 3-1/8" Rise (Kit) # 36061 along with the 2 inch hitch ball like # 19258 or the 1-7/8 inch ball like # 19257.
If you need electrical for a trailer or lighted accessory, I recommend the T-One Vehicle Wiring Harness with 4-Pole Flat Trailer Connector # 118417. This connects to factory wiring found behind your passenger side tail light. I've attached a video to assist.
