Which trailer hitch for the 26 Toyota sienna has the most ground clearance?

Hey Richard, thanks for reaching out. We offer two trailer hitches for the 2026 Toyota Sienna, the etrailer # e56RR and the Curt # C22UR, and the ground clearance for these two hitches is exactly the same. Once the hitch is installed, the bottom edge of the receiver will be about 9" from the ground. This is a bit low as far as most hitches go, but it really shouldn't be problematic unless you are driving on some really steep inclines.
I used to have a 2013 Sienna with a hitch on it and the ground clearance was very similar to the 2026 model. I never had any issues with the hitch bottoming out. Even with a bike rack on there I never saw it rub or scrape the ground. Then again we are here in Missouri and MO isn't exactly known for its steep roads and hills.
All that said, between the two hitches, I recommend the etrailer # e56RR. It has a matte black powder coating, compared to the gloss coating on the Curt hitch. The matte black coating is better at resisting scuffs, chips and scratches, plug it blends better with the underside of the bumper which gives the hitch a more factory look.
What will you be using the hitch for?

I have the hitch on my 25 Toyota Sienna. It works great in all conditions on level ground. However my driveway is on an incline and it drags on the ground. It also drags anywhere there is an incline. If I had the money I would go for the hidden hitch which requires removing the rear of the car plastic. More work but I think it’s worth it.
