The best hitch for your 2023 Toyota Highlander XLE is the etrailer # e75ZR. This hitch has a 2" receiver with a max gross trailer weight of 5,000 lbs and tongue weight of 500 lbs. What sets it apart from others is the matte black powder coat finish. This gives it a nice rugged look and also helps to hide dirt and dings.

I have attached an installation video for your reference.
