Expert Answers about Toyota Venza


  • Recommended Trailer Hitch Receiver For 2021 Toyota Venza
  • It may be possible that the Draw-Tite # 36675 for a 2021 Toyota RAV4 will fit your 2021 Toyota Venza, but this has not been tested so I cannot confirm this. I recommend going with the Curt Trailer Hitch Receiver # C89UR which is confirmed to fit your 2021 Toyota Venza, and the 2" receiver will allow you more options when it comes to accessories like a bike rack, cargo carrier, or ball mount for towing a trailer. Since you mentioned you were looking for a 1-1/4" receiver, you can still...

  • 2016 Toyota Venza Bike Rack and Trailer Hitch Recommendations for 4 Bikes
  • I recommend installing the etrailer Trailer Hitch Receiver # e22AR 2016 Toyota Venza so we can get you set up with a hitch mounted bike rack. Then for a bike rack I really like the Thule Apex Swing XT # TH9027XT because it allows you to swing the rack out of the way so you get full hatch access without having to remove any of the bikes. The swinging feature is really simple to use as well which is another reason I like this rack. A lot of the racks that have the swinging feature are a...

  • Recommended Hitch and Wiring Harness for 2015 Toyota Venza

This is a 2" hitch with a towing capacity of 3,500 lbs and a tongue weight of 350 lbs so you will have no problems using any type of bike rack.

  • Trailer Wiring Recommendation to Use with Draw Tite Hitch for 2013 Toyota Venza
  • For trailer wiring for your 2013 Toyota Venza you will need to start with a 4-way to provide the turn signal functions. For that you would need the part # 118482. Since you don't have trailer brakes you would then want the part # 37185 to convert the 4-way to a 7-way. To activate the 12 volt accessory circuit you will want to run a length of 10 gauge wire part # 10-1-1 through a circuit breaker like part # 9510 to the positive post of your battery. The wire to use on the # 37185 is the...

  • Trunk Bike Rack Recommendation for 2014 Toyota Venza
  • I have attached a link to all of the trunk mounted bike racks that we have available for your 2014 Toyota Venza. One of my personal favorites is the Thule Gateway 2 Bike Carrier, # TH88VR. This rack uses the FitDial mounting system and is loaded with features but carries an economical price tag. I have included a video for you to check out. If you plan on carrying women's, children's or alternative framed bikes, I recommend an adapter bar like the Swagman Easy-Out, # 64005. This bar attaches...

  • Recommended Trailer Hitch for a 2012 Toyota Venza
  • The Draw-Tite Class III Hitch # 75663 will fit your Toyota Venza, and we have test fitted this hitch on your vehicle to confirm it will fit. I recommend this hitch because it is easily bolted onto your vehicle and no welding is required for installation. Also, a black powder coat finish covers an e-coat base for great rust protection. If you are interested in a bike rack, I recommend the Thule Hitching Post Pro # TH934XTR. This will fit with the Draw-Tite Hitch I recommended and can hold...

  • Recommended Cargo Carrier with High Ground Clearance
  • The Surco 24 by 60 Cargo Carrier, part # 52018 has a straight shank, which means that the height at the back end would be the same at the height of the receiver. For the Toyota Venza, once a hitch is installed, the top of the receiver would fall just below the bottom of the rear fascia. Depending on the height from the ground to the bottom of a hitch receiver on your vehicle, this might present a problem. If you are concerned about ground clearance, you could use the Pro Series 24 by 60...

  • Roller Bunk Bracket # DL21762 Recommendation
  • For a roller bunk bracket designed for roller bunks you would want a Boat Trailer Roller Bunk Bracket # DL21742. If you wanted a set of roller bunks for this bracket I would recommend the Boat Trailer Standard Roller Bunk # DL21754. I spoke to my contact at Dutton-Lainson and he informed me that the Slotted Bunk Bracket # DL21584 that you referenced was designed to work on wooden bunks and would not be recommended for a roller setup.

  • Recommended Trailer Wiring Harness for a 2021 Toyota Venza

If you don't already have a trailer hitch picked out yet, I recommend the etrailer Trailer Hitch Receiver part # e25AR which is a bolt-on fit.

  • Trailer Hitch Receiver For Carrying an E-Bike Rack With a 2021 Toyota Venza
  • I recommend the Draw-Tite Max-Frame Trailer Hitch Receiver # DT46MR for your 2021 Toyota Venza Hybrid. This receiver will fit all trim levels of your Venza. It has a 2" receiver tube that is capable of supporting up to 525lbs of tongue weight which is plenty for a bike rack with your E bike. When you do not have the bike rack placed into your receiver you will still be able to use the automatic lift gate by performing the kick action just to the side of the receiver tube. I recommend...

  • Trailer Hitch, Wiring, and towing Accessories for a 2011 Toyota Venza
  • What the dealer most likely meant is that the Toyota Venza does not come with a factory tow package and thus there are no official tow package parts made for it that are OEM. You can still install a trailer hitch and wiring in your 2011 Venza. The Draw-Tite Hitch, # 36512, that you referenced is a good choice. Even though the hitch has a gross trailer weight capacity of 3,500 pounds, you must still go by the owners manual for the towing capacity of the vehicle and go by it. If that is...

  • Curt or Draw-Tite Class III Hitch for 2015 Toyota Venza
  • Between the Curt # 13356 and the Draw-Tite # 75663 Class III trailer hitches for your 2015 Toyota Venza I recommend the Curt # 13356 because of its superior black powder coat finish. This finish tends to last much longer than those from other manufacturers to help extend the overall lifespan on the hitch and resist rust/corrosion. As you probably realized when looking at the two hitches, these units are otherwise pretty much identical. They are going to line right up to existing holes...

  • Recommended Bike Rack for a 2021 Toyota Venza with an Activity Hitch
  • The activity hitch on the 2021 Toyota Venza has a 1-ΒΌ" receiver and a 110-lb capacity, so your bike rack will have to meet those requirements. The only one we have that might work is the Saris SuperClamp EX 2, part # SA4025F. It's a wheel-mount bike rack that still has the capability to work with fenders. You'll have to clamp the cradle where the fender ends and make sure the straps are securing the wheels. Keep in mind that this rack is 35 lbs, so ensure that your two bike plus this...

  • Recommended Draw-Tite Trailer Hitch Receiver for a 2013 Toyota Venza
  • There are 2 Draw-Tite Trailer Hitch Receiver options for your 2013 Toyota Venza; one with a 1-1/4 inch receiver # 36512 and the other with a 2 inch receiver # 75663. We always recommend going with a 2 inch receiver over a 1-1/4 inch receiver because you will be able to use more accessories and get more out of a 2 inch receiver. The Draw-Tite # 75663 has a Tongue Weight (TW) capacity of 350 lbs and a Gross Towing Weight (GTW) capacity of 3,500 lbs. If you were to use a Weight Distribution...

  • Hidden Hitch Trailer Hitch # 87521 Recommendation for a 2011 Toyota Venza
  • I would recommend you get a Draw-Tite Trailer Hitch # 75663. This hitch does not require the use of a stabilizer strap when a bike rack is installed so you would not have to worry about installing one with damaging your spoiler. I attached installation instructions for this hitch as well as an installation video for you to check out. In order to reduce the 2 inch opening of the # 75663 to a 1-1/4 inch opening you will also need a Hitch Reducer # HT02. I attached a review video for you...

  • Recommended Trailer Hitch Receiver For 2021 Toyota Venza Hybrid
  • I have a different option for you, but the Draw-Tite Trailer Hitch Receiver # DT82MR is not confirmed to fit your 2021 Toyota Venza Hybrid as it was designed for the Volkswagen Amarok. For your vehicle you will need the Draw-Tite Trailer Hitch # DT46MR which will fit your Hybrid model just fine and gives a 525lb tongue weight rating and 3500lb trailer weight rating. If you are planning on towing a trailer with your Venza you will also need a vehicle wiring harness # C57ER, and a ball...
