Question:

Looking at towing parts for a 2025 Honda Odyssey. Do I need the wiring harness and the tow hitch? Is there only the one option?

asked by: Linden

Expert Reply:

Hey Linden. It entirely depends on what you're doing with your hitch. If you're planning on only hauling accessories like a cargo carrier or a bike rack you only need a hitch.

For your 2025 Honda Odyssey, I recommend our etrailer Hitch item # e98855. This is a class III hitch with a 2" receiver that has a 3,500 lbs towing capacity and a maximum tongue weight of 525 lbs. This hitch is custom fit and comes with all hardware necessary to complete the installation.

If you are planning on towing you will also need a wiring harness item # C56382 and a ball mount kit item # C45534.

What do you plan on using your hitch for?
