2011 Toyota Matrix hitch questions
Which trailer hitch fits a 2011 Toyota Matrix?
CURT 12221 (Class 1, 1-1/4 inch receiver, 2,500 lb) and CURT 12228 (Class 1, 1-1/4 inch receiver, 2,500 lb) both fit. Pick the class that covers your trailer with room to spare, then check the fit table on the product page for your build.
How much can a 2011 Toyota Matrix tow with this hitch?
The hitch is rated to 2,500 lb gross trailer weight and 250 lb tongue weight. Your Matrix has its own tow rating in the owner's manual, and the lower number is your limit. A loaded bike rack counts against tongue weight too.
Do I need a wiring harness for the 2011 Toyota Matrix?
If a trailer is going on, yes. Brake and turn signals have to work, and CURT 56035 plugs into the factory connector so the trailer lights follow the Matrix's. Order it with the hitch and it's one install.
Will it fit my Matrix?
Nearly every build, with a few exceptions. CURT 12221 doesn't fit the Xr & Xrs trim. CURT 12228 doesn't fit the Gt trim. The full fit table is on each product page, so check it before you order.
