Do They Make a 2" Trailer Hitch for a 2023 Hyundai Venue

The only trailer hitch options for a 2023 Hyundai Venue are class I, 1-1/4" like the Curt Trailer Hitch Receiver part # C57CR which is what I recommend. That said, you can convert this to a 2" hitch using an adapter like the Trailer Hitch Receiver Adapter part # e43YR or part # e93YR. Please note, using said adapter will reduce the hitch capacity by 50%.

Unfortunately, the Hyundai Venue is a subcompact so they don't make the larger hitch size for this as the vehicle can't benefit from the higher capacity. In regards to trailer hitches, these are tested separately from the vehicle so if the vehicle is rated lower than the hitch then that's your weight capacity.

I have a 23 Hyundai venue and want to put a bike rack at the back. It will fit a 2´´ receiver. What do you recommend I get as a receiver for this bike rack?

@JaimeA Since there are only 1-1/4" trailer hitch receivers available for the 2023 Hyundai Venue you won't be able to mount your bike rack with a 2" shank. You could use a hitch adapter to go up to 2" but you'd be reducing your trailer hitch's tongue weight capacity by 50%, which would likely mean the hitch would be overloaded once the rack and bike(s) is/are installed. Your best option is to switch to a bike rack with a 1-1/4" shank so you can maximize the capacity of your trailer hitch. If you can give me some more info on the bikes you have I could recommend a suitable replacement.
