Question:

Can I use the TowSmart hitch on my 2025 Honda CR-V EX-L to pull a small utility trailer for yard work?

Absolutely, Derek - the TowSmart # TS67ZR is a great match for your 2025 CR-V EX-L. It’s rated for 4,500 lbs towing and 675 lbs tongue weight, which is well above your Honda’s limit of 1,500 lbs for small trailers. That gives you a healthy safety margin while staying within what the vehicle can handle.

If you’ll be towing, you’ll also need the T-One Wiring Harness # 118741 for trailer lights and the Ball Mount Kit # 989891 to match your trailer’s coupler height and size.

What kind of trailer are you planning to pull - a small utility, cargo, or maybe a light camper?

Perfect, that’s exactly what I needed. I’m mostly hauling lumber and yard debris, so it sounds like this setup will work great. Thanks again!

@Derek You’re all set then! If you ever add a different trailer later on, feel free to swing back and I can double-check the wiring or ball height for you. Safe hauling!
