Expert Reply:

The etrailer trailer hitch # e98864 will fit your 2016 Toyota RAV4 hybrid model. I have included a link to a video showing an example installation for you. The hybrid model probably does not have a towing package option so the capacity will be limited to 1,500 pounds gross trailer weight and 150 pounds tongue weight unless otherwise stated in the owners manual. So keep that in mind.

If towing is in your future then for this hitch I recommend 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 have the right rise or drop to tow the trailer level, use the link I have included that explains how to measure to choose a ball mount to tow the trailer level.

And for a trailer wiring harness I recommend # 118578 to add a 4-Way flat connector to the rear of the vehicle. I have included a link to a video showing an example installation of the wiring as well.
