Recommended Hitch for a 2024 VW Atlas
Question:
I just got a 2024 VW Atlas and I would like to add a hitch to it. Is this something you have and can help me with?

Yes, it is something we have and I would be happy to help you! To add a hitch to your 2024 VW Atlas, I recommend the Draw-Tite item # 76176. This class III 2" hitch is custom fit and bolts to your Atlas with included hardware.
I really like this hitch because of the way it installs. The entire crosstube is hidden behind the rear bumper which leaves only the 2" receiver exposed. This not only looks better but helps with ground clearance as the receiver sticks out right below the bumper.
I have linked an installation video below so you can see how to get this hitch set up.
If you are planning on towing you will also need a wiring harness item # C67WR and a ball mount kit item # C45534.
