Expert Answers about Hyundai Sonata


  • Product Availability for Hauling a Honda Ruckus with 2017 Hyundai Sonata
  • You have two options of a hitch for your 2017 Hyundai Sonata, the Curt Trailer Hitch Receiver, # C11402 and the Draw-Tite Sportframe, # 24965. I prefer the Curt option that is assembled in the USA and noted for having a superior powder coating. Each of these options have the same specs of being a Class I hitch with a 1-1/4" receiver. They are rated for a maximum gross trailer weight of 2,000 lbs. and a maximum tongue weight of 200 lbs. Meaning that the vertical load on these hitch options...

  • Class I Trailer Hitch for 2017 Hyundai Sonata Hybrid
  • For your 2017 Hyundai Sonata Hybrid (that is not the plug-in version) you can use either of the 1-1/4-inch Class I hitches shown on the linked page, either Draw-Tite # 24965 or Curt # C11402. These offer identical weight capacities and a similar installation process, which is shown for you in the linked video. With one of these hitches installed you can use a Class I compatible accessory such as a 2-bike hitch bike carrier like # C18085 or a cargo carrier like # C18110. The owner's manual...

  • Is There A Roof Rack Available For A 2003 Hyundai Sonata
  • The DK081 is indeed no longer available from Rhino Rack, unfortunately. Due to this, there are no custom made roof racks available for your 2003 Hyundai Sonata. However, you can use the SeaSucker Monkey Bars Roof Rack # 298-SX6000B if you need a roof rack. This is kind of an odd solution, but it is actually pretty nice. It can carry up to 150 pounds (always check to see what your car can handle before loading to this amount) and comes with 48" round crossbars. There is lots you can do...

  • Recommended 4-Pole Wiring Harness for 2016 Hyundai Sonata Hybrid
  • We do have 4-pole trailer wiring harness kits for the 2016 Hyundai Sonata Hybrid so long as it is NOT the plug-in version. For this vehicle I suggest the Curt harness # C56390 which offers plug-in installation at the rear of the vehicle, at the back of the two tail light assemblies. The rest of the installation consists of securing the ground wire's ring terminal to a nearby clean bare metal surface and running one other supplied wire to the battery where it connects using the included...

  • Trailer Hitch Receiver Availability For a 2008 Hyundai Sonata Towing a U-Haul Trailer
  • Currently the only receivers available for your 2008 Hyundai Sonata are class I like the Curt Trailer Hitch Receiver # C11325. This is mostly due to your Sonata having a maximum towing capability of 200lbs tongue weight and 2,000lbs or total trailer weight. Be sure to check your owners manual for your maximum towing capacity. Curt recommends using the Ball Mount # C45521 in the rise position. You will be able to use either a 1-7/8" Ball # C40001 or 2" Ball # C40018 with the U-Haul trailer....

  • What is the Best 2-Bike Rack that is Similar to the Thule Apex
  • There actually is a 2-bike version of the new Thule Apex XT. It's part # TH9024XT. Thule made changes to the cradles and straps on their hanging racks. The cradles still have great cushioning and the straps are not ratcheting making it easier to tighten them down. The Apex XT still includes locks and anti-sway cradles, and still folds and tilts like the previous models. I've linked a review video for you to take a look at.

  • Trailer Wiring Harness for a 2013 Hyundai Sonata Hybrid
  • I checked with the manufacturers we carry and there is an option from Hopkins, # 46365. But this is a hardwire wiring harness and not a plug and play type of harness. This means you will have to test the vehicle wiring with a circuit tester such as # 3808 and then splice in the harness wires accordingly. You will want to consult your vehicle owners manual for information on towing with the Sonata. Many hybrids are not rated for towing and the hitches for them should be used only for accessories...
