The trailer hitch that I recommend for your 2020 Hyundai Palisade is the Curt Trailer Hitch Receiver part # C13427. The Curt Trailer Hitch Receiver is a direct bolt-on fit that does not require any cutting or drilling. The best part of all is that it has a hidden cross tube which means only the receiver tube will be present once installed. I have attached a photo to show this as well.
The trailer wiring harness that I recommend for your 2020 Hyundai Palisade is the Curt T-Connector Vehicle Wiring Harness part # CU94FR. The T-Connector Vehicle Wiring Harness is a direct plug and play fit that does not require any cutting or splicing. It also comes with zip ties which you will need to secure the harness, so it doesn't drag or catch on anything. I have attached an install video for you on the above.
If your trailer has brakes then you are also going to need a 7-way trailer wiring harness and a brake controller. I recommend the 7-Way RV Upgrade Kit for Trailer Brake Controller Installation part # ETBC7L and the Curt Echo Mobile Trailer Brake Controller part # C51180. This option is super easy to install (no running wires inside vehicle), you don't have to drill into your dash to mount the controller (you would for most other options), and it is easy to use which means you don't have to learn how to use a new device (it operates with your phone).
