Recommended Trailer Hitch for Carrying a Bike Rack on 2022 Subaru Outback Onyx Edition XT

Question:

I have a 2022 Subaru Outback Onyx Edition XT which I really love. The only problem is that I don't have a trailer hitch on it. Do you make one that will fit my vehicle? I need this for my bike rack, thanks.

For your 2022 Subaru Outback Onyx Edition XT I recommend the etrailer Trailer Hitch Receiver # e25TR. This is a Class III hitch with a 2" receiver. It has a maximum tongue weight of 350 lbs to hold your bike rack and a concealed cross tube to help maintain a factory look. This hitch features a rugged, matte black finish which will help hide dirt better than a glossy finish while providing rust and corrosion resistance.

If you plan on doing some towing in the future, I recommend the Tekonsha T-One Vehicle Wiring Harness # 118467. The T-One connector plugs into existing wiring, providing you with a 4-way to power your trailer's signal lights.

If you need a ball mount, check out the etrailer Ball Mount Kit # 989900. This kit has two ball mounts, one with a 3/4" rise or 2" drop and the other with a 2-3/4" rise or 4" drop. It also comes with a 1-7/8" and 2" ball, as well as a ball mount bag to store everything in.

I have attached some review and installation videos for your reference.
