Expert Reply:

The best trailer hitch for your 2021 Toyota Highlander XSE is going to be the etrailer Trailer Hitch item # e75ZR. This hitch is custom fit and bolts to your Highlander with included hardware. I have linked an installation video below.

If your Highlander did not come with the factory towing package and you need a wiring harness. I recommend the T-One Vehicle Wiring Harness with 4-Pole Flat Trailer Connector item # TK99FR. This custom-fit T-One connector plugs into your vehicle's wiring harness, which is located behind the trim panel near the driver's side rear seat belt bracket.

To round out your towing setup I recommend the Curt Towing Starter Kit for 2" Hitches item # C45534. This towing kit will provide you with a 2" ball and a fixed ball mount with a 3/4" rise and 2" drop. It also includes a hitch pin and clip, hitch receiver lock with keys, hitch cover, and a storage case.
