Recommended Trailer Hitch for a 2020 Toyota RAV4 Hybrid
Question:
I am thinking about putting a trailer hitch on our 2020 RAV4 to carry our bikes. What do you suggest?

Expert Reply:
The trailer hitch I recommend for a 2020 Toyota RAV4 Hybrid is the Curt Trailer Hitch Receiver part # C13416. The Curt Trailer Hitch Receiver is a direct bolt-on fit with absolutely no cutting or drilling required. The Curt Trailer Hitch Receiver also has a hidden design which means only the receiver tube is visible from outside the vehicle therefore you still retain the factory-like appearance. The best part of all is that the hitch is super easy to install taking most only thirty minutes or so as there is after all only four bolts total.
If you don't already have a bike rack, the Thule Hitching Post Pro part # TH934XTR is what I recommend as it will allow you to carry up to four bikes and it can be tilted back away from the vehicle to allow access to the rear hatch area.
I have attached an install photo and video for you as well on the trailer hitch.
