From the research I did it looks like your 2016 Toyota Sienna has a 3,500 lb towing capacity so it would be capable of towing as long as you stay under that capacity. Be sure to verify this in the owners manual though.

For a hitch that would match this capacity and is the most popular option for your vehicle we have the Curt Hitch part # C13105 that I would recommend.

Since you wanted to do some towing you might be interested in etrailer ball mount kit # 989900. It comes with 2 ball mounts; one with a 3/4 inch rise or 2 inch drop and one with a 2-3/4 inch rise or 4 inch drop. It also includes a 1-7/8 inch ball, 2 inch ball, hitch pin with clip, and a storage bag.

If the ball mount kit does not include a ball mount with the right rise or drop to tow the trailer level, check out the link I have included that explains how to measure to choose a ball mount to tow the trailer level.

For trailer wiring you would then want the part # C56106 which is also confirmed as a fit.
