Hey Chris, the CURT Class 3 Trailer Hitch # C37RV won't require any bumper modification, but the etrailer Class 3 Trailer Hitch will require some underbody panels/fascia to be trimmed for install.

Are either of the hitches available for the 2024 Santa Fe compatible with the hitch bumper cover available from Hyundai?

@Brian I didn't see any tech notes saying that it won't work, so yes it should work with the hitch bumper cover.

@Brian I don't have any control over that and I can't predict the future unfortunately, but I'd imagine we'll get one in sooner than later.

Bryce D, regarding your comment about e28AR 2024 Hyundai Santa Fe will require some underbody panels/fascia to be trimmed for install. Can you elaberate? I like the price of the e28AR over the C37RV.

@Jmac Jmac, it looks like that only applies to the Sorrento models, actually. The Sorrento models look like they have a plastic cover next to the spare tire which would need trimming after the hitch is installed, but your Santa Fe is not showing that it has that so you should be good.
