According to Curt, their # CK66KR Class II hitch is compatible with all models of the 2021 Toyota RAV4, including the hybrid model.

Instead of the Class II, might I make a suggestion? If you went with the Class III # C13416 hitch which has the more prevalent 2 inch receiver opening, you'll have a much larger selection of hitch mounted accessories such as bike racks or cargo carriers to choose from. Usually, there isn't much of a price differential if any separating the two, so unless you have a bike rack or hitch accessory designed for the 1-1/4 inch receiver used by a Class II hitch, there's not much reason to go with the lower-capacity Class II hitch.

If you decide to tow with your RAV4 at some time in the future, you'll need a few other accessories to make that happen, such as a trailer wiring harness like # C56434, a ball mount and a trailer ball.

If you decide to stick with the Class II you'd looked at, use the # C45521 ball mount along with either the
# A-80 for a 1-7/8 inch or # A-82 for a 2 inch trailer ball. You'll also need a # PC2 hitch pin.

If you instead wanted to go with the Class III, you'll need the # 40346 ball mount, the # PC3 hitch pin and the # 19260 for a 1-7/8 or # 63845 for a 2 inch trailer ball.
