Question:

I have a 2020 Hyundai Tucson Sport. And Im looking for a towing receiver , was wondering if there is a difference between the standard Tucson and Tucson Sport as far as which receiver I should purchase.

The only Hyundai Tucson model that the trailer hitches won't fit is the Night Edition with the dual exhaust tips. As long as your 2020 Hyundai Tucson Sport isn't that edition then you're good to go!

Out of the available hitches it's always better to go with the larger 2" hitch receiver (for fitment with more accessories) which we have both the Draw-Tite # 75836 and the Curt # C13240. I personally like the Curt design more because the safety chain loops are parallel to the ground as opposed to the Draw-Tite and point down towards the ground and ultimately reduce ground clearance, but either one will get the job done.

Then for wiring I recommend the T-One # 118812 because it's the most reliable wiring kit that tees in behind your tail lights and then draws power directly from your battery.

Then to complete your towing setup you also need a ball mount kit. I recommend checking out Ball Mount Kit # 989900 because it includes two ball mounts, one with a 3/4” rise/2” drop and the other with a 2-3/4” rise/4” drop, a 1-7/8” hitch ball, a 2” hitch ball, and a pin and clip. You will want to refer to the attached ball mount article to ensure that this kit is correct for your towing application.
