Fiat 500X Trailer Hitch Buyer’s Guide (Canada)
A hitch turns your 500X into the one that takes a bike rack, a cargo carrier, a utility trailer or a small boat. CURT builds one hitch for the Fiat 500X from 2016 to 2021, Class 3, rated 3,500 lb, from $305.71 CAD with free shipping anywhere in Canada.
Your year decides the part. Find it in the table, open the year page for the exact hitch, price and wiring, and you're done in a few minutes.

CURT parts for the Fiat 500X
Wiring, ball mount and the rest
A bike rack needs nothing but the hitch. A trailer needs lights, and the wiring guide walks you through four-flat and seven-way for the 500X.
Then a ball mount sized to the receiver. Pick the drop or rise that keeps the trailer level, and match the ball to the coupler. The ball mount guide covers both in two minutes.
Canadian winters eat hitch hardware. Salt and brine get into the receiver and the trailer plug, so a smear of grease on the pin, a cap on the receiver and a rinse under the bumper in spring keep a CURT hitch looking new for years. The rust and salt care guide has the full routine.
Fiat 500X hitch questions
Which CURT hitch fits my Fiat 500X?
It depends on the year. CURT 13271 covers 2016 through 2021, a Class 3 hitch rated to 3,500 lb. Open your year page and the exact hitch, price and wiring are on it.
Can I put a bike rack on a 500X with this hitch?
Yes. A loaded rack counts against the hitch's tongue weight (525 lb on CURT 13271), so a four-bike platform rack with bikes on it is well inside the limit.
Can I install the hitch myself?
Most owners do. CURT rates CURT 13271 a novice install, about 45 minutes with hand tools and a jack. The install video above is the real job, uncut.
How much can a 500X tow with a CURT hitch?
The hitch is rated to 3,500 lb, but the 500X's own tow rating in the owner's manual is the ceiling. The lower of the two numbers is your limit, every time.
