Currently the only confirmed fitting trailer hitch available for your 2022 Toyota Prius V is the Curt Trailer Hitch Receiver # C11473. This is a Class I 1-1/4" receiver that has a maximum gross trailer weight capacity of 2,000lbs and maximum tongue weight capacity of 200lbs. It is a custom fit so there will be no drilling or welding required, just a simple bolt-on design. It has a gloss black powder coat finish over a protective base coat that offers superior rust resistance. You can also use a trailer hitch cover like # 22281 to prevent water from sitting in your receiver tube and causing corrosion. I've linked our page of 1-1/4" hitch covers if you would like a more personalized cover.

If you plan on using this hitch to haul some bikes then you'll need to ensure you are using a rack that is rated for a Class 1 hitch and fits a 1-1/4" receiver opening like the Thule Apex XT 2 Bike Rack # TH9024XT for example. If you need help picking out a bike rack just reply back with the weight and type of bikes you're planning on hauling and I can find a rack to suit your specific needs.
