Specs:
Draw-Tite's Tested Tough program provides testing standards far superior to those outlined by the Society of Automotive Engineers (SAE), the go-to source for engineering professionals.
Each Draw-Tite trailer hitch receiver undergoes extensive fatigue testing and static testing with the ball mount that is either supplied or recommended for use with that particular hitch, thus ensuring results that are applicable to real life use. Fatigue testing is also conducted on hitches rated for use with weight-distribution systems.
In addition, Draw-Tite performs static testing on a simulated automobile, as opposed to the rigid fixture used for SAE testing, resulting in a more true-to-life scenario.

This fully welded, corrosion-resistant vehicle trailer hitch receiver is perfect for your light-duty towing needs. Draw-Tite's Tested Tough guarantee ensures that this hitch exceeds industry standards. Drawbar sold separately.The Draw-Tite trailer Receiver is a true custom fit for my 2021 Hyundai Elantra SEL.I was very happy with the Draw Tite receiver for my 2017 Hyundai Elantra that one I installed it took about a hour, but the one for my 2021 Elantra was going to take about two hours so I had MP body shop install it great job.I added some pictures check them out.
Always a pleasure working with etrailer. I bought my first hitch last year and it worked perfectly was easy to install and pulled my boat perfectly. I traded my car in for a 2021 Elantra And no one carried a hitch for it yet. Thank etrailer for making one so quickly and getting me back out on the water. Thanks for the quick replies when I email you. I highly recommend etrailer.
Sturdy hitch for my Elantra. Installation was less extensive than explained on directions. Did not need to remove the fascia and trimmed it in place. Pushed the muffler slightly to the side without lowering it to fasten the hitch to the frame. Will use for a carrier and light towing with a Class 1 trailer. Looks just like the pictures that I saw in other reviews.
This hitch and wiring kit worked perfectly on my brand new 2023 Hyundai Elantra. These are labeled for the 2022 and nothing is listed for the 2023. I gambled that it would fit and won. Shipping to my front door was extremely quick!!! Awesome
I've never been disappointed with either products purchased or customer service at etrailer. Thank you.
Had installed no issues fit perfectly
Fit like a glove
Customer service is helpful, and courteous. Delivery very quick. Would recommend this company.
Shipped fast. Solid product. Fits my 2022 Hyundai Elantra perfectly.
Couldnt use the hitch, drilled the holes and was about to mount it and the was able to. There is and area where the spare tire bump in the center hit the hitch and made it impossible to make it fit.
Instructions are poor. Instructions have you cut off a lot more of the heatshield than is necessary. You also have to tape 2 of the wires for installing the bolts into the frame together for them to be long enough to reach the bolts closest to the bumper. The original wires are too short by a few inches. Why wouldn't you make them a little longer so this isn't necessary?
Also, hardware bag was missing parts and etrailer's attitude about the issue was very poor. They sent me additional hardware that was delivered 5 days later after I requested 2 day shipping and offered to pay additional money to ensure I could complete the install in the time frame I needed it completed by. I even spoke to a supervisor who blatantly lied to me and assured me I would have the parts in 2 days.
Installed super easy under an hour. I used a step drill bit 1.125 inch to enlarge the bolt access hole instead of a die grinder. Worked much easier.
It was the etrailer’s fault to ship defective products and I was not reimbursed for the labor so, no I would not recommend this company and their poor customer service.
What you see is what you get. Well made, could have some slight more bracing but I’m used to 2 inch hitches not 1 1/4. So tbh it exceeded my expectations so far. The install wasn’t to bad the muffler was a slight pain but those pull through wires that thread onto the carriage bolt were amazing!!! My friend and I made up our own fitting instructions as to save much more of the heat shield and body pane underneath. Photos attached!
Price from etrailer was good as always. Directions were nice and clear. Ended up doing my own trimming and was able to save one fastener location and more of the panels. Hitch itself was decent overall. Very solid, the wide brackets were the same thickness of the class 3 I bought at the same time for my truck. Had a missing chunk of paint on the visible edge of the safety chain bracket and started surface rusting the first time it rained. Will have to sand and paint that. Would be nice if they gave 2 long and 2 short pull wires instead of just 4 short ones you have to twist together (minor gripe, I know).

Overall fit is excellent but installation is a bit more complex than other hitches. The concept is the same as most hitches-you have some bolts and hardware to fish through the frame using some music wire that is coiled to thread on to the bolts. It works very well and secures the hardware throughout the process. So as long as you are careful and deliberate there is never any danger of losing the hardware inside the frame of the car. Also typical is the requirement that some pieces be removed in order to access the mounting points on the frame. In my case it was the exhaust hangers for the muffler and a little trim piece below the rear bumper. The instructions say to permanently remove the trim piece but instead I chose to cut it out for hitch clearance and reinstall. I recommend this as the piece was easy to cut with a utility knife and does tie the rear bumper cover down and keep things stationary. The mounting holes for the hitch lined up perfectly and the final product looks great.
There are two reasons for the 4-star review rather than 5-
>Installation is a bit more complex than other hitches. Rather than a simple bolt on operation you need to enlarge two access holes in the frame of the car to get the hardware into the vehicle. This requires use of a die grinder or something else that can grind the thick frame material in tight quarters. The process is outlined in the instructions so it was not unexpected during the process but I would rather not grind off the factory rust protection.
>The hitch does interfere with one of the muffler mounting brackets on my car. The rear driver side mount on the muffler is about .5mm away from the hitch once installed and the movement allowed from the rubber exhaust mounts allowed the exhaust system to contact the hitch every time the car hits a bump. It is very loud and constant inside the car and completely maddening in a matter of seconds. Fortunately I had a new set of die grinder bits from the installation and ground a recess in the muffler mounting bracket that solved the problem. The amount of material removed was about 2mm so I do not think I will have any structural repercussions as a result.
Overall a great product and will do the job of hauling a bike rack perfectly but not 5-star worthy due to the modifications to the vehicle necessary for install and proper function.
