Question:
All, I have a 2022 VW Taos, SEL, 4WD 4 Motion. I have seen online some hitches have fitment issues. You have 2 listed for my vehicle. Which one works? Thanks!

Glad you reached out about this Robert, we can confirm the correct fit.
So, there are two hitch options listed for the 2022 VW Taos, but for your SEL with 4Motion, I recommend going with the Curt hitch.
The Curt hitch is confirmed to fit all Taos models, including AWD, so you won’t run into the fitment issues. The Draw-Tite hitch has had some compatibility issues depending on drivetrain, which is where the confusion usually comes from.
The Curt hitch # C38JR is a bolt-on install, no drilling or welding required. This hitch is a Class 3, 2,000lb weight capacity with a 2" receiver.
Most get a etrailer Anti-Rattle Hitch Collar for 2" Hitch Receivers # e38fv, it will tighten to your accessory to stop any clunking and unwanted movement.
What will you use it for; bike rack, small utility trailer, or cargo carrier?
