How to Select a Trailer Hitch
Why a larger crossover often lands on a Class 3 card with a 2 inch receiver even when the door sticker keeps trailer weight modest.
Watch on YouTube →Shopping a trailer hitch for an Audi Q7 in Canada? Start with the Q7 card, not the Q5 one. CURT 13277 is a live Class 3 hitch on this store for listed 2017 and newer Q7 years, with a 2 inch receiver. It is not the path for a Q5. We also publish year landers for 2017 through 2025 so you can open the page that matches your door sticker. Trailer wiring for the Q7 is thin on this shelf today — we will say that plainly instead of inventing a harness link.
All four videos are from the official CURT YouTube channel (@curtmfg). Use them for class selection, install habits, wiring basics, and ball-mount height before you dig into the cards below.

Watch on YouTube →General install habits. Finish with the instruction sheet for your exact year card — generations are not interchangeable.
Watch on YouTube →Useful before you order a custom four-flat, or while you wait on a harness we do not stock for your year yet.
Watch on YouTube →Published Class 3 cards here use a 2 inch opening. Match the shank to the tube you actually bolt on, then set drop so the trailer sits level.
Watch on YouTube →CURT 13277 is the Class 3 hitch we list for Audi Q7 years that CURT writes as roughly 2017 through 2025 on the product card (the handle also notes later coverage). It uses a 2 inch receiver. Hitch-side numbers on that family are meaningful, but Audi’s published tow and tongue numbers for your trim still win. The hitch is active and in stock on Lots of Parts today.
We do not currently list a Q7-specific custom four-flat on this shelf. If you need lights for a trailer, read the wiring guide and ask support rather than forcing a Q5 harness onto a Q7. CURT 56404 is written for earlier Q5 and SQ5 years — wrong vehicle.
Earlier Q7 years before 2017 do not have hitch year landers on this store. We are not inventing those URLs. If your Q7 is older than the landers below, use Shop by Vehicle or contact support with the year and trim.
| Item | Status on this store |
|---|---|
| CURT 13277 Class 3 hitch | Active and in stock for listed Audi Q7 years on the product card. 2 inch receiver. Linked above. |
| Q7 trailer wiring | Not listed as a Q7-specific custom harness on this shelf today. Do not borrow Q5 CURT 56404. |
| Year landers | Live for 2017 through 2025 Audi Q7. Linked below. No 2015 or 2016 Q7 landers on this store. |

These nine landers are the Audi Q7 hitch pages we publish today. Confirm the year on CURT 13277 before you buy.
For listed 2017 and newer Q7 years, this is the Class 3 receiver we stock. Read the year range on the product page, not a forum thread.
We are not listing a Q7 custom four-flat in this pass. A factory trailer prep package still needs the right connector path for your trailer lights.
CURT 13277 is a Q7 hitch. Q5 shoppers should open the Q5 guide instead of borrowing this card.
Even with a Class 3 tube on the bumper, Audi’s tow and tongue numbers for your trim still win — especially on hybrid or SQ7 notes.
Use the 2017 through 2025 landers above when they match your Q7.
Read the year list on the CURT 13277 product card before you add it to the cart.
If we do not list a Q7 harness, ask support or use the wiring guide rather than guessing.
Match a 2 inch shank and set drop so the trailer sits level on Canadian roads.
