I'd love to help pick out what you'd need to tow a trailer with your 2020 Toyota Highlander Hybrid! For a hitch the Curt part # C99FR is a confirmed fit and is also mostly hidden and has plenty of towing capacity. I attached an install video for this for you to check out as well.
For trailer wiring you'd want the 7-Way kit part # 22119 which is a custom fit and comes with everything needed to install easily. This will allow you to very easily install the Curt Echo Mobile part # C51180 which basically will just plug into the 7-way and once synced to your smart phone will be ready to tow without any wiring.
Then for a Yakima roof rack the JetStream kit part numbers # Y00426, # Y28TR, # Y06153, and # Y06132 is the best option as it's aero shaped for minimal wind noise and mileage loss and has channels on tops of the bars which makes for an easier install of T-slot style roof rack accessories.
