Specs:
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.
At etrailer we're committed to the products we sell, and to our customers. Our experienced and knowledgeable staff are available via both phone and email to address your questions and concerns for the lifetime of your hitch. The technicians at etrailer perform hitch installations on a daily basis, making them a valuable resource for do-it-yourselfers.

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.Looks great, especially with the matte finish. I was originally planning on paying a shop to install it, they quoted $200 which seemed fair but I thought I'd just do a quick google "how to" search before commiting and one of the first results was a video by etrailer. It was a very good video, straight to the point, made it seem easy, and it was! Got it installed in less than 90 minutes - $200 saved! Maybe I'll celebrate this with a good hand-tossed pizza.
Good fit with minor cutting of bumper
Arrived on time, looks strong.
it works very well
I was intimated by the prospect of installing this trailer hitch on my 2015 Volvo V60 wagon- although I'm relatively handy I don't do any work on cars. After watching the video and reading through the instructions I dove in. one hour and twenty minutes later the car was completely reassembled and my hitch bike rack was ready to go!
the receiver looks great on my car, and I'm excited about the prospect of using my hitch mounted bike rack in the future.
Good fit, relatively easy install. Nice product. I will use it primarily for a bike rack, but it's nice to know I can pull a light trailer with it. It's on a Volvo sedan.
Excellent fit on my 2014 Volvo S60. With a helper this project was all of an hour and a half. There are 5 fender well screws and four additional Torx screws near the muffler. We had to trim the muffler heat shield by a little bit and the bumper cutout by the dimensions shown in the instructions. The spacers were required. All went smooth and looks like factory install. Highly recommend! And etrailer shipped super fast and with great follow up.
OK, so you guilted me into it. Well, maybe the rainy weekend weather had something to do with it as well but anyway I finally installed the hitch and electrical wiring and everything went off with(out) a hitch (pun intended). Now why didn’t I do that at the beginning of the summer? Thanks again for giving me the push needed to get this done.
I just finished installing this hitch on my '15.5 S60 and it was about as straight-forward as I could have imagined. The only "gotcha" was that the added depth of the hitch plus spacers cause the bumper bar to just barely fit under the bumper cover, making things a little bit tight to get back together. Despite that I was able to get everything torqued down and back together in about an hour. The finished look is completely acceptable to my eye. Yes, a 2" receiver is a chunky piece of hardware to hang under the bumper but at least that's the only visible part. Having to notch the bumper cover is no big deal, either, since you can't see that without getting under the car. In my mind it's all a miniscule price to pay to add utility to my little sedan.
I had a neighbor help me with installation and another pair of hands was absolutely necessary. The demonstration in the video was so helpful and I probably would not have attempted to do it myself without it. Thanks for a great product at a reasonable price.
Fit great on my wife's 2011 Volvo XC70. Easy to install, only took about an hour and a half total. Even the wiring harness was easy to fit. Use the hitch to tow a utility trailer and to carry a Thule bike rack.
Well made product, though looks like it was repainted after manufacture. Great price. Very easy to install on my Volvo XC70 alone. Took about 90 minutes (thanks to etrailer's YouTube video) Have used it for Yakima swing daddy 4 bike rack. Solid!
Installed the hitch this weekend on my S60. Great instructions. Everything lined up perfectly. Only took us about 50 minutes to install. Most of the time was spent fretting over pulling the bumper fascia off. Looks great on the car. Towed my trailer later in the day. Excellent!
Delivered quickly and included all hardware and instructions in English. My install was just for my bike. Installed in a few hours alone.
etrailer.com delivered fast and provided emails throughout the process! Thank you!
2015.5 Volvo V60 R-Design - The Curt hitch #13266 has excellent fit & finish and etrailer.com included clear instructions.
Installation on the Volvo V60 can be done on a set of ramps with basic hand tools per the instructions. No surprises. Using a floor jack, the install can be done by one person, but two people are recommended. Do the install on a warm day or warm garage to ensure the plastic bumper cover is soft and flexible. Installation should take about an hour.
We plan to use this for hauling bikes with our Thule 964 Revolver bike rack.
I am very satisfied with the Kurt trailer hitch. The unit was shipped promptly and was well packaged. UPS can beat the _______ out of things.
The hitch fit very well and installed without a problem, thanks to the video. It is not often I find a tutorial demonstrating on the EXACT thing I want to work on. The ''plug and pray'' wiring harness worked flawlessly. [prayers were answered]
All in all things went well except for the kit being short one of the Mickey Mouse ear shims. That was nothing a stack o'washers could not remedy.
This hitch is well designed, and it was sold and delivered quickly, no hassles.
Excellent experience all around
1. Great price at e-trailer
2. Rapid shipping
3. Fairly easy to install. Instructions are very good. Takes a little trial and error to get some of the body panels off. Hitch fit my 2013 Volvo S60 almost perfectly. Bumps up against inside of bumper very slightly but it's easy to force everything to fit and the distortion is not visible. A year later, and the hitch and fit remain rattle free and perfect
Good product, prompt shipping. looks to be very good quality. I would order from etrailer again for sure if I ever need to. The install was easy considering the type of job that you are doing, estimated time may have been around an hour give or take a few minutes.
My only complaint about the hitch is that it's design makes the hitch sit very low after it is installed. I feel it could be an inch or two higher. I have already scraped it one time in a driveway with no load in the car. I am thinking that I didn't even need to trim the back fascia like the directions recommend because the hitch sits so low.
