Expert Reply:

According to the manufacturer, the Curt trailer hitch # 13534 fits all models of the 2009 Toyota Highlander including hybrid models. But because it is a hybrid you will want to consult the owners manual to determine the towing capacities. I have included links to the installation instructions and a video showing a typical installation for you.

If you plan on doing some towing I recommend the etrailer ball mount kit # 989900. It comes with 2 ball mounts, 2 balls, a hitch pin with clip, and a storage bag. For trailer wiring use # 118449. I have linked instructions and a video for the wiring as well.
