Expert Reply:
If you are looking for the best hitch we currently have available for your 2021 Toyota Highlander Platinum Hybrid, you will want the Curt # C99FR. This is rated up to 5,000 pounds towing and 500 pounds of tongue weight, but you will need to check your owner's manual for your vehicle's capacities as it can vary.
With that said, the reason I say this is the best option is due to how it will install. Thee is no drilling required for the install, though there will be trimming or removal of underbody panel needed, but it will measure 16" from the ground to the top of the receiver opening, which means you have great ground clearance. One of the really big pluses with this hitch is that only the receiver opening and safety chain loops will be visible once the install is complete. This means it will be a much cleaner look than other options that have the crossbar exposed. The fact that it is American made is just another checkmark in the reasons I recommend it category.
