Hi Barbara!

The Curt Trailer Hitch Receiver - Custom Fit - Class III - 2" # C33MJ will indeed fit your 2026 Mazda CX-50 Hybrid. It actually fits all version of CX-50 for this model year, so you are definitely good to go with it. Even with the PP, which I assume stands for Premium Package? If it's something else, just let me know.

There is a little bit of fascia trimming to get this hitch installed, but it will look like a factory hitch once finished. I included an image of a 26 CX-50 we installed this hitch on for you to check out as well.

What are you planning on using this hitch for?

Installed easily by myself on 2025 CX50 hybrid. Just need a little strength and some wood blocks to hold it in position while you bolt it on.

Great hitch. Fit exactly as advertised. I mounted the hitch by myself on the garage floor. Lots of leveling back and forth to get it up to the mounting holes but I did it! Of course it would have been easier up on a lift. I highly recommend this hitch but would appreciate better cardboard packaging.

We installed this hitch on our 2023 CX-50. Installation was fairly straightforward. I did have a friend assist, but have seen reviews of folks doing it by themselves. Fits great, looks great. I choose the Curt hitch as this is the second hitch we’ve purchased an the Curt hitch is a great product.

Hi Peter! The previous 2025 CX-50 hitch from Curt (the #C33MJ) fit both gas and hybrid models, so I would be willing to bet pretty good money that the new Curt Trailer Hitch Receiver - Custom Fit - Class III - 2" - Preorder #C96UB will as well.…

Hi Jake! The Curt Trailer Hitch Receiver - Custom Fit - Class III - 2" #C33MJ for your 2025 Mazda CX-50 uses M12-1.25 x 45mm hex bolts for the install. And only four of them, so it is a pretty easy install. You could use thread locker, but I…

Though I have not seen any issues with the etrailer hitch #e98907 not lining up properly for the install on a 2020 Nissan Murano, this actually does happen with hitches every now and then. Just as a side note before I get into that though, make sure…
