Recommended Concealed Hitch for 2019 Subaru Crosstrek Hybrid

Question

Question:

Can you recommend a trailer hitch for a 2019 Subaru Crosstrek Hybrid? I would like to have most of it to be hidden or semi-hidden if possible. This will be used to carry bikes mostly. Thank you.

If you're looking for a hitch that will install mostly hidden, you're looking for the EcoHitch Stealth Trailer Hitch Receiver - Custom Fit - Class III - 2" # 306-X7365, which installs behind the bumper and has a removable receiver so that you won't even notice it's there when it's not in use. This hitch has a 2" hitch receiver that's perfect for carrying bike racks, and is a confirmed fit on your 2019 Subaru Crosstrek Hybrid.

If you don't already have a bike rack, the Swagman XTC2 Bike Rack for 2 Bikes - 1-1/4" and 2" Hitches - Frame Mount # S64670 is a an easy to load platform rack that also tilts away from your vehicle to allow access to the rear cargo area when the bikes are loaded, so it's great for the trailhead. This rack also comes with locks for the bikes and the rack, so everything is always secure during travel.

I've linked some review and installation videos of these parts for you to have a look at, as well.

Yes. You could also use the Curt Trailer Hitch Receiver - Custom Fit - Class III - 2" # C13382. It will mount behind the bumper for a concealed installation, but the receiver does not remove and will still protrude a little bit. You might experience a slight reduction in ground clearance when backing out of driveways with bigger dips, but nothing too significant. I've linked an installation video of this part for you to check out, as well.
