Question:

I am getting a brand new 2024 Honda CR-V. I would like to add a hitch but I don't want it to stick out much. Is there one available and do you have any pictures?

Expert Reply:

Congrats on the new SUV. For your 2024 Honda CR-V, I recommend the Curt Trailer Hitch item # C13397. This hitch is custom fit and bolts to your CR-V with included hardware. I really like this hitch because the crosstube mounts behind your rear bumper completely concealing everything except for the 2" receiver.

I have attached a couple of pictures below that will show you what the receiver looks like compared to your rear bumper.

The Curt Trailer Hitch item # C13397 is a class III hitch with a 2" receiver. It has a 3,500 lbs towing capacity, and a 525 lbs maximum tongue weight. It is not rated to be used with weight distribution systems.

If you are planning on towing you will also need a wiring harness item # C59236 and a ball mount kit item # C45534.

I also recommend using the No-Drill Mount Bracket item # 18136 and the item # C42CR to secure the 4-way connector to your hitch. This will put it in an easy to reach spot and prevent the risk of it falling onto the road.
