- I may have a solution for you, however there is not an adapter that will work for you without reducing the weight capacity. As you said any adapter will reduce the weight capacity by 50 percent making it not enough.
My best recommendation would be to check the tongue weight capacity of your 2016 Volkswagen Tiguan in the owner's manual if you haven't already. You need to make sure it can handle what is necessary because that will determine the maximum amount your vehicle will carry...
view full answer... - Carrying 3 Bikes on a 2014 Volkswagen Tiguan with a 1-1/4 Inch Trailer Hitch Receiver
- You are limited to 2 bikes on a Class I trailer hitch receiver but not a Class II. If you have a Class II receiver on the Tiguan you can carry 3 bikes as long as you're still within the weight capacity of the hitch. We only carry Class II and Class III hitches for your VW so it's likely you have a Class II. Check the hitch, owner's manual, or with Volkswagen to find the hitch Class and capacities is the first step.
If you find out it's a Class I hitch, or a Class II that isn't rated...

view full answer... - How Much Does EcoHitch Trailer Hitch for 2022 Volkswagen Tiguan Weigh?
- The EcoHitch Hidden Trailer Hitch # 306-X7395 you were looking at weighs in around 55lbs. This is a confirmed fit for your '22 Volkswagen Tiguan and is the option I recommend for you due to its hidden crosstube which will give a very low-profile installed look.

- The distance between the hitch pin hole of the Saris # SA4025F SuperClamp EX and the closest portion of the rack when folded up vertically toward the back of the vehicle is 7-1/4 as confirmed with Saris. Since you have about 5 inches to work with, the # SA4025F SuperClamp EX will work perfectly for you.

view full answer... - Installation Method for the Hidden Hitch on a 2022 VW Tiguan
- The Hidden Hitch by Draw-Tite Trailer Hitch item # DT62GR is installed into the frame by removing the back bumper cover on the 2022 Tiguan. The etrailer Hitch item # e43ZR attaches to the sides of the frame from below if you're looking for an easier install. Both hitches are confirmed to fit the 2022 Volkswagen Tiguan.
If you are planning on towing you will also need a wiring harness item # C56403 and a ball mount kit item # C45534.
view full answer... - Comparing Ground Clearance with Curt and Draw-Tite Hitches for 2019 Volkswagen Tiguan
- The distance from the ground to the top of the receiver tube opening on the Curt # C12177 is approximately 11-1/2 inches. This is also true for the Curt Class III - 2 inch Hitch Receiver # C13381.
view full answer... - Ground Clearance with Curt Trailer Hitch C12177 Installed on a 2018 Volkswagen Tiguan
- When we installed Curt trailer hitch # C12177 on a 2018 Volkswagen Tiguan, see video link, it measured 11-1/2 inches from the ground to the top of the receiver opening. That means that from the ground to the bottom of the receiver is approximately 9 inches. There is actually a vehicle component forward of the hitch that hangs lower. For the hitch to make contact with the ground the front axle would have to be up on a very steep incline.
view full answer... - Receiver Length Behind Hitch Pin On EcoHitch Trailer Hitch Receiver For a 2022 Volkswagen Tiguan
- I recommend installing the EcoHitch Hidden Trailer Hitch Receiver # 306-X7393 on your 2022 Volkswagen Tiguan to use with your Yakima Dr Tray bike carrier. This receiver has a length of 3.25 from the hitch pin center hole to the back of the receiver. The Receiver # 306-X7395 only has 2" behind the pin hole center and will not allow you to properly use your anti-rattle that is built into the Dr tray.
I recommend installing the T-One Vehicle Wiring Harness # 118811 when you install the receiver....
view full answer... - Does the Thule Hitching Post Pro or the Thule Camber have Shorter Arms
- The Thule Camber 4 Bike Rack # TH9056 is going to have longer arms than the Thule Hitching Post Pro # TH934XTR. The reason why the Thule Cambers arms are a bit longer is because the spacing between the cradles is larger. The benefit of having more space between the cradles is that you will have more room between each bike. This will lessen the chance for bike to bike contact when traveling down the road.

- We currently only have 2 hitches available for your Tiquan. The Draw Tite is no long available. Of the two remaining Class III hitches available for your 2012 Volkswagen Tiguan, the Curt hitch # C13133 and the etrailer # e98906, they are both practically identical in design. They both sit 15-1/2" from the top of the receiver opening to the ground.
view full answer... - Can 2019 Volkswagen Tiguan Tow Small Trailer
- I looked up the towing capacity of your 2019 Volkswagen Tiguan and it can tow a trailer up to 1,500 lbs so with the Curt hitch part # C12177 installed (which is rated for more than that) you'd easily be able to tow a small trailer.
For trailer wiring you'd then want the part # 118811 which is custom fit and very reliable.
view full answer... - Distance Between Malone Trailer Crossbar and Bars of 2nd Tier Kit # MPG474
- The distance between the top crossbar of your Malone Trailer # MPG460XT and the bottom of the bars on the 2nd Tier Kit part # MPG474 is 32 inches. I confirmed this with Malone.
view full answer... - What is the Distance from the Pinhole to the Closest Part of the Malone Runway 2 # MPG2149?
- On the Malone Runway Bike Rack for 2 Bikes - 1-1/4" and 2" Hitches - Frame Mount # MPG2149, there are actually two pin holes available on the shank to use for the pin. I confirmed with my contact at Malone that the the first pinhole is 8-8/3 inches away from the first bike wheel loop and the second pinhole is 10-1/4 inches way from the first bike wheel loop. Since the measurement from the pinhole of the hitch 76192 to the end of the bumper is 5 inches, you will have no clearance issues.
view full answer... - Recommended Hitch for a 2018 Volkswagen Tiguan SEL R-Line
- I checked with Curt, for your 2018 Volkswagen Tiguan SEL R-Line you are going to want the Curt Trailer Hitch Receiver item # C13381. This hitch is custom fit and bolts to your Tiguan with included hardware.
VW added some extra trim pieces for the R-Line model. Those will need to be trimmed down significantly for the hitch to be installed. Removing or modifying these trim pieces will not affect the function of your hitch and shouldn't affect the appearance of your VW as the pieces are...
view full answer... - Can a 2019 VW Tiguan Carry a Mobility Scooter With the Stealth Hitches SH49ZR Installed?
- The Stealth Hitches Hidden Rack Receiver # SH49ZR will be rated up to 350 pounds, but from what I could find, it will be rated up to 220 pounds when installed on a 2019 VW Tiguan as this is the vehicle's max tongue weight capacity. With that being said, as long as the combined weight of the scooter and its carrier is less than the 220 pounds, you will be good to go. If it ends up being heavier than 220 pounds, you will need to go another way.
You can add the Towing Kit w/ Ball Mount and...
view full answer... - Can 2022 Volkswagen Tiguan etrailer Trailer Hitch Carry a Motorcycle
- The etrailer Trailer Hitch Receiver # e43ZR for your 2022 Volkswagen Tiguan has a max tongue weight of 525 lbs so as long as your carrier and motorcycle don't exceed this weight rating (or that of your vehicle if your vehicle is lower) then you'll be just fine!
For example, the etrailer Motorcycle Carrier w/ Ramp # e98873 weighs in at 58 lbs so the hitch itself would be able to handle up to a 467 lb motorcycle.
view full answer... - Recommended Hitch for a 2023 Volkswagen Tiguan
- Yes, we do! To add a hitch to your 2023 VW Tiguan, I recommend the etrailer Hitch item # e43ZR. This hitch is custom fit and bolts to your Tiguan with included hardware. This is a class III hitch with a 2" receiver.
I really like the etrailer item # e43ZR hitch because the main crosstube mounts behind the bumper cover. This leaves only the 2" receiver visible, which not only looks better it helps with ground clearance.
I have linked an installation video below and attached a couple...
