There is no difference, Curt's part number is 11276. We add a C to that part number as we do for all of our Curt products.

This hitch would be an excellent choice for your 2013 Toyota Prius. I attached an install video for you to check out also.

All non-trailer loads - bike racks, cargo carriers and so forth - should be supported with stabilizing straps. Failure to properly support these loads will void your hitch warranty from Curt. For that you would want part # 18050.
