Expert Reply:
The etrailer Trailer Hitch will fit your 2017 Toyota RAV4 SE. There are no exclusions for the trim models of the RAV4 like yours so it would fit and work well.
If 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.
For trailer wiring you then would want the part # 118578 which is a custom fit kit.
