Is the Draw Tite Hitch 24796 Confirmed as a fit for the 2016 Nissan Maxima
Question:
I am looking for a hitch for 2016 Nissan Maxima, your site indicate 3 brands with nearly identical products, however, all installation photos are for 2009-2011 design model. The 2016 is an all-new design version and it doesnt appear any one of the manufacturers had done their homework I owned a 2011, so Im aware of the two models. The rear bumper, bumper underskirt and trunk floor pan are different on these two design series and I dont see how the fitmet would be the same. Could you investigate further with the hitch manufacturers and see if they have done actual fitment to the 2016 design and if they have updated photos and install instructions related to the 2016? Thank you for your help in clarifying this so I can make the correct purchase,

Helpful Expert Reply:
Before any of our hitch manufacturers will release a fit for a vehicle they always test fit to be certain. Especially Draw Tite and Hidden Hitch. They seem to release fits later than Curt and rarely if ever do they get it wrong. They are incredibly cautious about carrying over a hitch fit from the previous year.
That being said the Draw Tite hitch part # 24796 is going to fit your 2016 Nissan Maxima despite the differences on the vehicle you noted. I attached an install video that shows it being installed on a 2015 Altima that would be different from your 2011.
