Question:

Are there any 2" Draw-Tite trailer hitches with the hidden crossbeam like the Curt for a 19 Crosstrek?

Expert Reply:

The crosstube on the Draw-Tite # 76209 actually lines up with the trailer hitch receiver so is not hidden like the Curt # C13382. The only other 2 options for your 2019 Subaru Crosstrek that feature a hidden crosstube are the etrialer.com # e98912 which is like the Curt or the EcoHitch # 306-X7365 which has a unique design where the receiver can be removed for a completely OEM look.

I have attached some installation videos for the various trailer hitch options so you can get an idea of what the process entails. I recommend using the etrailer.com option because it has the same look as the Curt but it uses a matte black finish instead of the gloss black finish. The matte black finish helps keep it looking nice even if it gets scratched.

You didn't say what you were wanting to use the trailer hitch for but a lot of Crosstrek owners use them for a bike rack. If this is you then I highly recommend the Kuat NV 2.0 # NV22G because it is designed around avid bikers with the wheel mount carrying feature, the aluminum construction (for longevity), and the integrated locks and bike repair stand. I have attached a review video of this bike rack on a 2018 Crosstrek for you to check out.
