Expert Reply:

The Curt # C11352 and Draw-Tite # 24796 require drilling in order to install on a 2013 Altima sedan.

If you're needing the hitch as an attachment point for a bike rack or other hitch mounted accessory, I'd recommend the Draw-Tite # 24796. If your owner's manual or Nissan says it's okay to tow with your Altima, you might also need the following:

A ball mount
Trailer wiring harness, part # 118470
2 inch trailer ball, part # 19258
1-7/8 inch trailer ball, part # 19256
Locking hitch pin, part # e98879

I've linked to the installation instructions and an install video for the hitches I recommended.

There are only Class I trailer hitches available for your Nissan Altima, most likely because the vehicle itself isn't rated to handle anything heavier than what a Class I hitch can support. If you have the sedan model the Curt # C11352 is your best option. It features a 200 pound tongue weight capacity.
