Hitch Recommendation for a 2016 Honda HRV  

Question:

Hi Etrailer.com, I am a long time customer of etrailer.com. I have purchased 4 hitches from you. The information in the form of videos and recommendations is top notch. Back in May, we purchased a new 2016 Honda HR-V. Its Hondas latest small SUV based on the Honda Fit. Question: have you heard from any of your hitch suppliers when a hitch might be available for this model? We desperately want to install our hitch Yakima bike rack also purchased from etrailer.com. Thanks for your help!

For your 2016 Honda HRV the Curt hitch part # C11416 has been confirmed as a fit and would work well for you. This is a Class I hitch though, with a 1-1/4" opening, and will require your bike rack to be Class I compatible and only carry a maximum of 2 bikes. It has a 200 lb tongue weight capacity and will require a stabilization strap # 18050 for unsupported loads like bike racks or cargo carrier.

There is also the EcoHitch # 306-X7322 that has the more desirable 2" receiver. This hitch has a higher tongue weight rating of 300 lbs and will not limit your number of bikes as long as the total weight of the bike rack and the bikes is at or under the 300-lb limit.

I recommend the EcoHitch # 306-X7322.

And......thank you for being a long time customer!
