Can A 2021 Mazda CX-5 Haul A Scooter Lift And Scooter
Question:
Can a scooter lift work on a 2021 cx5.

Expert Reply:
The ability to haul a scooter lift around on your 2021 Mazda CX-5 is going to depend on the tongue weight capacity of the hitch on your CX-5 as well as the capacity of your CX-5. From what I can find online the 2021 Mazda CX-5 has a 2,000lb towing capacity. Tongue weight capacities are calculated by multiplying your towing capacity by 10-15%. This would mean your CX-5 only has a tongue weight capacity of approximately 200lbs. Going over this amount can put undue stress on the frame of the vehicle and the suspension.
The Draw-Tite Max-Frame Trailer Hitch Receiver - Custom Fit - Class III - 2" # 76138 you were looking at has a tongue weight capacity of 600lbs but that does not increase the capacity of your vehicle and you'll have to still follow the 200lb capacity of your vehicle.
If the scooter lift and scooter fall under this capacity then you will be able to haul them with your 2021 Mazda CX-5.
