Hyundai Accent Trailer Hitch Buyer’s Guide (Canada)
A hitch turns your Accent into the one that takes a bike rack or a small cargo carrier. CURT builds four hitches for the Hyundai Accent from 1995 to 2020, Class 1, rated 2,000 lb to 2,000 lb, from $308.23 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.

Each year page has the hitch, the harness and the ball mount that go together, with the price of each.
CURT parts for the Hyundai Accent
Wiring, ball mount and the rest
A bike rack needs nothing but the hitch. A trailer needs lights, and CURT 56149 ($89.67 CAD) is the four-flat harness that plugs into the Accent's factory connector for 2012 through 2017. No cutting, no scotch-locks. Other years have their own harness; the year page shows the right one.
Then a ball mount sized to the receiver: CURT 45521 ($51.38 CAD) drops straight into a 1-1/4 inch 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.
Hyundai Accent hitch questions
Which CURT hitch fits my Hyundai Accent?
It depends on the year. CURT 11548 is the newest, for 2018 through 2020, and the table above matches every other year to its part. Open your year page and the exact hitch, price and wiring are on it.
Can I put a bike rack on an Accent with this hitch?
Yes. The 1-1/4 inch receiver takes any 1-1/4 inch rack, and a loaded rack counts against the hitch's tongue weight (200 lb on CURT 11548), so a four-bike platform rack with bikes on it is the most you'd want on it.
Can I install the hitch myself?
Most owners do. CURT rates CURT 11548 a novice install, about 35 minutes with hand tools and a jack. The main body tucks behind the bumper so only the receiver shows. The install video above is the real job, uncut.
How much can an Accent tow with a CURT hitch?
The hitch is rated from 2,000 lb to 2,000 lb depending on the part, but the Accent's own tow rating in the owner's manual is the ceiling. The lower of the two numbers is your limit, every time.
