Question:

Good morning, I have a 2021 Toyota Highlander Platinum. I want to add a tow hitch to the vehicle, but I am not sure what will fit. I know that based on the trim levels, there are different options, but I want to make sure the one that I purchase will be a bolt on option for the Platinum package. Can you please send me some options? Thank you. David H

Thanks for reaching out, David. For your 2021 Toyota Highlander Platinum I recommend the etrailer Class 3 Hitch # e75ZR. This hitch will fit all models of the 2021 Highlander including the Platinum model.

We also have the Curt # C45CR hitch for the 2021 Highlander Platinum and the EcoHitch # EH35VR. I still prefer the etrailer # e75ZR hitch over these options because the crosstube will be concealed behind the bumper, and because it is so much more affordable. I have linked an install video for you below.

Hey David, how did the etrailer hitch work out on your Highlander Platinum? Did the hidden crosstube design give you the clean look you wanted? Your feedback could help others choosing between these hitch options.
