Hey, Bo!

Good news, hitch part # BW97BR will absolutely work on your 2026 Honda CR-V, whether it’s a hybrid or non-hybrid model.

Right now, we don’t have an installation video for the hybrid version, only for the non-hybrid. However, I double-checked with B&W, and they don’t note any special steps for hybrid models. That means the installation process will be the same for both versions.

We have installed a hitch on a hybrid CR-V before, specifically the etrailer hitch part # e98848, and the process is very similar. I’ve linked that installation video for you so you can get a clear idea of what to expect.
