Good question, and the answer is that while I think one is the better option - particularly for a self-install - there is essentially no difference between the actual hitches that fit your 2021 Toyota Corolla sedan, which are the Draw-Tite Trailer Hitch Receiver # 24983 and Curt Trailer Hitch Receiver # C34UR.

They are both Class I hitches with a 1-1/4 inch receiver that install the same, but the biggest difference is the much better, far clearer instructions that come with the Curt Hitch # C34UR.

The instructions for the Curt are listed with accompanying photos which makes it a lot easier, and the Draw-Tite instructions (which are mostly just lines of text) also leave out that it is necessary to trim the underbody panel (as well as the heat shield), which is clearly marked in Step 3 of the Curt instructions.

Since most people do these hitch installs themselves, and because the hitches are otherwise the same, the best option and the one I would go with if this were my 2021 Toyota Corolla sedan is the Curt Trailer Hitch Receiver # C34UR.

I have added links below to the instructions of each hitch for you to check out as well.
