Question:
Hello, is there a significant difference in the process to install the hitch on the 2021 audi q7 v. the video of the 2020? Also, I dont see the difference in the 2 hitches available for this model, other than price. What separates them?

Expert Reply:
Let's start real quickly with your question about installation, and no matter which hitch you choose, the install will be the exact same for all trim models of your 2021 Audi Q5. As for the hitches, here are a couple that fit a 2021 Audi Q5:
- etrailer Trailer Hitch Receiver # e94CR
- EcoHitch Hidden Trailer Hitch Receiver # 306-X7397
These hitches are indeed quite similar, including how they install, as well as their 5,000 lb towing/750 lb tongue weight capacities. What separates the hitches is the fact that the EcoHitch is made from an alloy of recycled metals compared to the steel construction of the etrailer hitch
Other than that the only difference is the price, as you noted, so unless the recycled aspect of the EcoHitch is something that is important to you, as it certainly is for some people, I recommend going with the least expensive option to save yourself some cash.
