All of our trailer hitches for the 2016 Toyota RAV4 fit the Hybrid models as well. We have confirmed this with our trailer hitch manufacturers. I recommend looking at the Curt Class III Trailer Hitch, # C13149. This hitch has more than enough towing and tongue weight capacity for your RAV4. Also, the 2 inch receiver is compatible with a wide variety of accessories such as bike racks and cargo carriers.

If you plan on doing any towing, Curt offers a plug-in style trailer wiring harness, # C56350. Be sure to check your owners manual for the weight carrying capacities of your RAV4 before you load a trailer or cargo. Hybrid models are usually rated lower than standard models because they aren't really designed to support extra loads.

I have attached links to our selection of hitch mounted accessories as well as our ball mount selection if you are interested in doing any towing. I have also attached a help article that explains how to choose the correct ball mount. Since every vehicle and trailer combination are different, it is important to know how to choose the correct ball mount for your setup.
