Thanks for the information Yan. The Curt Hitch item # C72RJ and the Curt Trailer Wiring Harness item # C59236 are exactly what you'll need for your 2026 Mazda CX-5.

The Curt Hitch item # C72RJ is a custom fit class III hitch with a 2" receiver. It has a 2,000 lbs towing capacity and a maximum tongue weight of 200 lbs. All hardware needed for installation is included.

The Curt Trailer Wiring Harness item # C59236 is a universal harness that splices directly into your CX-5's rear tail light harness. It'll provide you with a 4-way connector capable of operating your trailer or accessory's lighting functions.

I also recommend using the Mounting Bracket for 4-Pole Flat Trailer Connector item # C42CR and item # C83DR. These mounting brackets will allow you to attach the 4-way connector item # C59236 directly to the Curt item # C72RJ hitch's crosstube without drilling. It'll place the 4-way connector in a safe convenient spot.

What do you plan on using your new hitch for? Feel free to answer this and throw in any other questions you have, where it says Add Comment.
