Question:

I cant find dimensions listed for any of the three type III hitches available for my 2012 Tiguan. The Curt and Draw-Tite look nearly identical in photos although the Curt looks like it might be a tad shorter overall. Could you please tell me which of the three would give me the most ground clearance? I have a very steep driveway even the slightest variation in size would be helpful in making sure the hitch doesnt scrape on a regular basis. Thanks!

We currently only have 2 hitches available for your Tiquan. The Draw Tite is no long available. Of the two remaining Class III hitches available for your 2012 Volkswagen Tiguan, the Curt hitch # C13133 and the etrailer # e98906, they are both practically identical in design. They both sit 15-1/2" from the top of the receiver opening to the ground.
