Expert Reply:
Draw Tite and Curt are two different companies who came up with different ways to attach their Class III hitches to your 2016 Mazda CX-5. The big difference being that the Draw Tite # 76138 attaches to the bottom of the frame rail whereas the Curt # C13315 attaches to the sides. These both fit the early and late model versions of the 2016 CX-5 as well.
