Why Are Only 2 inch Hitches Made for 2025 Honda CR-V

Question:

Any particular reason there is no Class II hitch available for 2025 Honda CR-V Hybrids ? They arent rated for Class III weights anyway.

Hey Bruce, basically any time the hitch manufacturers can come up with a way to fit a 2 inch hitch on a smaller to medium size vehicle they tend to do so as they can be made to have higher towing capacities (even if the vehicle isn't rated for it) and most of the hitch accessories are made for 2 inch hitches so they tend to be the most popular.

That's pretty much what I figured. There are a lot more things made for 2" receivers than for 1 1/4" ones. Thank you, Mr. C, for the quick reply. I have dealt with etrailer for many years, and You Folks have always been THE BEST !
