Question:
2026 Hyundai Santa Fe XRT that can tow up to 4500 lbs. What all do I need in the way of hitch and 7 pin wiring harness and will the Curt Echo work with this. The class III hitches only seem to go up to 4,000 lbs. Do you have a Class IV that will work? TIA

Expert Reply:
Hey Robert, for your 2026 Hyundai Santa Fe XRT the highest capacity hitch we offer is the Curt part # C37RV which is rated for towing up to 4,000 lb. Then to add a 7-way you would need the Curt # C48RV which would then allow you to use the Curt Echo Mobile part # C51180. The 7-way is still listed as a pre-order harness so it's not quite ready to order at the moment but it will be soon. Do you already have the vehicle or do you have it on order?
