Trailer Hitch Recommendation for 2021 Mazda CX-5
Question:
What hitch do you recommend for 2021 Mazda CX-5?
asked by: Matt M
Expert Reply:
I suggest the Curt Trailer Hitch Receiver, # C13315. Their hitches are one of the few still made in the USA, and their powder coat finish tends to be a little tougher than other brands.
Please note the linked installation video below.
If you are wanting the hitch for possible towing in addition to accessories such as bike racks, I suggest the T-One Vehicle Wiring Harness with 4-Pole Flat Trailer Connector, # 118746. You can easily install a 4-way trailer connector on your Mazda CX-5 with this T-One connector as it plugs directly into existing wiring without requiring cutting or splicing. Then, connect the etrailer Ball Mount Kit for 2" Hitches, # 989900.
