To add a hitch to your 2024 Toyota RAV4, I recommend the etrailer item # e23ZR. This hitch is custom fit and bolts to your Toyota with included hardware.

I really like the etrailer hitch item # e23ZR because it installs behind your rear bumper and the crossbar is completely hidden. This is a class III hitch with a 2" receiver. It has a 4,000 lbs towing capacity, and a 600 lbs maximum tongue weight.

For a wiring harness, you will want the Curt T-Connector Vehicle Wiring Harness item # C56434. This custom-fit T-connector plugs into your vehicle's wiring harness, which is in the rear cargo area. This will give you a 4-way connector capable of controlling your trailer or accessories lighting functions.

I have attached a couple of pictures below along with a couple of installation videos so you can see how to get these parts set up and what this hitch looks like when installed.

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.
