Rugged, Matte Black Finish
The sturdy steel construction is protected with a matte black finish for added durability. This unique powder coating gives etrailer hitches a carbide-like appearance and a rugged look that sets them apart from traditional glossy hitches. In addition to being rust and corrosion resistant, the tough matte coating hides dirt, scuffs, and dings better than a glossy finish.

Our experienced and knowledgeable staff are available via both phone and email to address your questions and concerns for the lifetime of your hitch.

This fully welded trailer hitch receiver bolts onto your vehicle's frame with no welding required. Matte black, powder coated steel is durable and corrosion resistant and creates a rugged look.by: Steven 04/09/2023
The hitch fit perfectly. I have put about 2000 miles of using it since installation.
by: D. H.05/23/2024
Easy to install and much faster/cheaper than trying to find a shop to install. This is our second hitch purchase from trailer, would definitely recommend.
by: Michael 05/01/2024
I use this for my bike rack. Install wasn’t that hard and the hitch is well made.
by: Garrett 11/24/2022
e trailer has nailed it as always. Shipped quickly, fit my vehicle perfectly, installation instruction video is spot-on and super helpful. I installed this by myself in about 2 hours start to finish and I’m super happy with how it turned out. Can’t speak to the longevity of the product yet but the initial experience has been great.

The receiver has held up flawlessly. I’ve used it to haul bikes for long road trips and never given a second thought to the security of the receiver.

@Garrett Glad to hear your hitch is working well for you!
by: Timothy 05/14/2024
What a great hitch! It fit the car like a glove... no drilling, bending, prying, or pounding!! I believe the install was complete in about 1.5 hours.
The customer loves it.
by: John11/08/2023
Fitment was such that where it mounted next to spare wheel well made getting spare out very difficult because it squeezed the tire. End of hitch was so far beyond the bumper an extension had to be used to prevent bike carrier hitting bumper.
And it was sent to my old address even after updating the information by phone.
Worst experience I've had with these people, I used to purchase all of my hitches from etrailer.
by: Philip11/28/2023
Amazing quality. This is my second trailer hitch from etrailer and they are exceptional. My first one was a smooth installation, but this one wasn't nearly as easy. You definitely have to cut down those factory bolts so be prepared to do that. Also, the included short hardware didn't fit. They were a little too short despite giving the holes a thorough cleaning. I've seen some people say they did the install themselves in 45 minutes. They are clearly luckier than I am. I did it myself in about 2 hours and with some audibles.
by: Franklin 12/14/2022
Good quality product. Simple and fairly easy installation. I needed another person to help hold it up. Perfect fitment. So far actually used only once, but overall very pleased.

Purchase and delivery was excellent. Trailer itself is high quality. Have used it several times since purchased to transport two road bikes, and is very secure.
by: Jonathan05/14/2022
I have a 2014 HYUNDAI SANTA FE GLS which has dual exhaust and technically wasn't covered in the installation video or vehicle fit list. I didnt realize this till I began to install it and once I did I figured what the heck let me try. Ill say this is does fit and bolted right on once I got it in place. The only issue I ran across was the hitch hitting the driver side exhaust cover mounted on the bumper, but all I had to do was remove 2 10mm bolts to get it loose, slide the hitch in place and insert one bolt to hold it and once everything was torqued I went back got the 2 10mm bolts to thread back in. All in all its a solid hitch that one person can install if your willing to get a little dirty. I recommend it for the build quality, ease of installation, and great pricing.

This hitch is not showing that it is a confirmed fit for the 2014 Hyundai Santa Fe GLS, it is only a fit for the 2014 Hyundai Santa Fe Sport. This could be the cause of the exhaust cover being in the way.
by: Mike02/22/2024
Easy installation and easy to use
by: Jeff 07/22/2023
the install was so easy fit perfect and looked great used it one time then sold the SUV to buy a truck and installed a new hitch for the truck I purchased it same manufacture and etrailer sold both the hitch and wire harness to me again both company are excellent, the only draw back is the install goes so quick that you will finish to early and haft to go back and finish the honey do list

This product still works after a year. We’ve been able to haul a trailer with our lawn mower attached perfectly fine.
by: Jeremy 10/25/2023
My 2nd trailer hitch from etrailer, best prices around. Total plug n play hitch, no need to weld or modify. Pleased with the product!
by: Jerry B03/24/2020
It is an etrailer product, so not much more to say. Hitch is very well built and heavy duty. The finishing looks great in the vehicle, and the round tube is a perfect fit.
Installation took 1hr:20min, and that is because I did not have one of the tools required to get the bumper pin out of the way, so had to improvise.
etrailer video was paramount for me to complete the installation. I recommend you watch the video prior to installing yours.
I am ready to tow and take our bikes for a ride. Thank you etrailer, for putting money back in my pocket!
by: Nicholas06/20/2020
This hitch looks great. Very low profile which nothing attached. I don’t have any specialized tools and very basic vehicle mechanical skills and I was down with installation in about an hour. Got this for adding a 60x24 cargo carrier on a 2018 Hyundai Santa Fe Sport for some extra room for camping trips. Thank you etrailer for an amazing product!

First, let me say I'm very impressed with the whole delivery process. First I received automated notice of the order, typical, then I received an email with the tracking number when it shipped, somewhat typical. However, on the tracking email they supplied two "How To" video links that were specific for my personal vehicle, wow! I had a clear and concise instructional before the part even arrived! And, I didn't have to go find it on my own. Because of this great addition I had an idea of how much time, which tools and the general requirements for the task. I have to admit, it added to the excitement because my concern about what I may need to do was eliminated. In fact, I installed my unit the day it arrived.
In my personal case, the steel was slightly sprung, probably from the welding. It took a little fight and some bumping with a mallet to get things going together. Once I had a few turns on every bolt I just took my time and did about 3 turns to each in a pattern. This was to ensure the bolts were somewhat evenly pulling everything to its final position. The part is a great fit for my Santa Fe. I will definitely recommend and shop with E-Trailer in the future. If you are considering this trailer hitch, I definitely recommend it.

Hitch came fast and packaged well. Watched a YouTube video and instalation was easy. Highly recommend.

Very well made and attractively priced, no need to pay more for the name brand. Like the matte finish. Excellent communication and tracking. This is my second e trailer hitch. Good stuff!

Very great material
by: Johnny07/16/2021
Easy fit after two bolts are trimmed off. Installed without lifting car. Release last two exhaust support. Enough space to pass unit and catch one bolt. Raise opposite side and bolt up. Replace plastic panels on both sides with new push pins.

The bike rack needed will depend on the number of bikes you're wanting to carry and what type of bike they are, but I can run through some recommendations that would work well for most bikes. For a hanging style bike rack, the Thule Hitching Post Pro, part # TH934XTR would work great for most bikes, except for those weighing over 35 lbs apiece or bikes with carbon fiber frames. The rack can tilt rearward...
view full answer... - Will the etrailer Hitch e98841 Fit on a 2019 Hyundai Santa Fe H-TracYes. The etrailer # e98841 also fits the 2019 Hyundai Santa Fe H-Trac, which is simply Hyundai's AWD system and won't effect the fit of the hitch. This is a custom fit hitch, so there is no drilling into the frame required for installation. If you're going to be towing, you'll also need a wiring harness, ball mount and hitch ball to complete your towing setup. For the wiring I recommend using the Curt T-Connector # CU94FR. It is a plug and play installation and has a powered converter....

This is a Class III trailer hitch with a 2" receiver so it will be compatible with more accessories than a 1-1/4" receiver. If you're planning on doing some towing, then you'll also need wiring and a ball mount kit. I...

- What Bike Rack do You Recommend for My Electric Bike Co Y Model with Fenders on My 2015 Santa Fe?I have a great bike rack option that will work with your fenders on your Y Model Electric Bike Co bike. We here at etrailer do not recommend using wheel-mounted style bike racks like the Saris MTR 1 Bike Platform Rack - 1-1/4" and 2" Hitches SA4031 with bikes with fenders. This is because the bike can shift on the rack during transport and cause damage/cracking to the fenders. It can also cause damage/interfere if you have a basket/platform mounted on your bike model. According to the...
view full answer... - Solution for Hitch Mounted 3-Bike Rack on 2018 Mazda 6 SportThe only option for a hitch on your 2018 Mazda 6 is a Class I hitch # C11356. This has a 1-1/4" receiver so a bike rack for a 2" hitch would not be an option. Also, a Class I hitch is going to be limited to 2 bikes, even if you use a 3-bike rack like the # S63365. Instead, you can use a trunk bike rack like the Yakima FullBack 3 Bike Rack # Y02633. This is confirmed to fit your Mazda 6 Sport and has a capacity of 35 lbs per bike or 90 lbs total when carrying 3 bikes.

So for that the etrailer hitch # e98841 would be the way to go. For a 3 bike rack the Swagman Trailhead part # S63365 is a really great option too.

The etrailer Trailer Hitch Receiver # e98841 that you found fits certain model years of the Hyundai Santa Fe Sport and some Kia Sorento's, but will not fit your Sportage.
