You can absolutely install a trailer hitch on your Hybrid model 2020 Toyota RAV4 and I specifically recommend the Draw-Tite # DT82QR. This Class III hitch is confirmed to fit your Hybrid, features the highest weight capacities available for this vehicle, and provides a really nice hidden-crosstube design where only the 2" receiver is visible (see attached images).

The custom mounting brackets on the hitch will line right up to existing holes in the RAV4 frame rails for a simple bolt-on (no-drill) installation. All the necessary hardware is included. I have attached a complete install video on the 2019 model RAV4 that you can use for reference. The process should be pretty much identical on your 2020 Hybrid model.

I'm not sure what you plan on using the hitch for, but I did also attached a couple links that will take you to our selection of hitch-mounted bike racks and cargo carriers that you can look through.
