Question:
I have a Mazda 3 hatchback and need a hitch for a 2 square tongue. Do you have a product that will work?

Expert Reply:
The trailer hitches made for your 2023 Mazda 3 Hatchback are Class I rated and come with a 1-1/4" receiver. The only way to use a 2" accessory with it is to use an adapter, but that will reduce the weight capacity by 50% which you don't want to do with a lower rated Class I hitch. Out of the available options I recommend going with the Curt:
- Curt Trailer Hitch Receiver # C98BR
I really like the Curt option because it has the reinforced collar that some accessories utilize.
If you're planning on using this for a bike rack then I recommend checking out the Kuat Beta # B202-114 because of how lightweight it is, it's easy to use, and it can be folded up for compact storage.
