Will Trailer Hitch Fit Both 2010 Ford Fusion and 2011 Ford Fusion Hybrid

It sounds as if you are wanting to move your hitch from your 2010 Ford Fusion to your 2011 Ford Fusion Hybrid. We have three hitches that will fit both your 2010 Ford Fusion and 2011 Ford Fusion Hybrid.

The choices are Draw-Tite # 24865 and Curt # C11390. The hitch that you referenced will not fit either your 2010 or 2011 Fusion. It was designed to fit the 2013-2014 Ford Fusion.

If you are moving a hitch from one Fusion to the other, it is recommended that you use new hardware on your new installation because it is considered torque to yield and the hardware should only be torqued once. The replacement hardware to use is # RHK.

All of these trailer hitches have a Class I rating and a 1-1/4 inch receiver opening.

If you are planning on carrying bikes, please be advised that your vehicle has a two bike limit. If you are planning on using a hitch mounted cargo carrier then your total allowable weight has a 200 lb maximum which includes the weight of the carrier. Finally, if you are planning on pulling a small trailer, you have a 200 lb tongue weight maximum capacity.

If you would like any recommendations for bike racks, cargo carriers or trailer accessories, please let me know and I would be happy to help.

I have attached the product pages for the three hitches that will fit both model vehicles as well as the installation instructions. I have also attached a FAQ article covering trailer hitch classes.
