Recommended Hitch for a 2021 Toyota Venza that Does Not Affect the Parking Sensors
Question:
I have a 2021 Toyota Venza and am looking for a hitch carrier that will not obstruct my parking sensors when it is not in use. I dont mind turning off the parking assist while my bike is attached, but when the bike rack is folded up and I am not transporting my ebike, I dont want to have the rack cause my parking sensors to alarm continually or have to disable them. TY!

I took a look at the installation instructions and checked with our vendor, the etrailer Hitch item # e25AR will not obstruct any of your sensors. This hitch is confirmed to fit your 2021 Toyota Venza. The crosstube mounts completely behind your bumper cover so the only part visible is the 2" x 2" receiver.
I have linked an installation video below so you can see the process.
If you ever have the need to tow you will also want a wiring harness item # C57ER and a ball mount kit item # C45534.
