CURT hitches for the Hyundai Elantra

A hitch turns your Elantra into the one that takes a bike rack or a small cargo carrier. CURT builds eight hitches for the Hyundai Elantra from 2007 to 2026, Class 1, rated 2,000 lb to 2,000 lb, from $262.53 CAD with free shipping anywhere in Canada.

Pick your Elantra year

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 Elantra

Wiring, ball mount and the rest

A bike rack needs nothing but the hitch. A trailer needs lights, and CURT 55310 ($80.29 CAD) is the four-flat harness that plugs into the Elantra's factory connector for 2009 through 2012. 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 Elantra hitch questions

Which CURT hitch fits my Hyundai Elantra?

It depends on the year. CURT 11630 is the newest, for 2021 through 2026, 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 Elantra 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 11630), so a four-bike platform rack with bikes on it is the most you'd want on it.

Can I install the hitch myself?

CURT rates CURT 11630 advanced, about 90 minutes, so expect some trim or drilling work. The install video above is the real job, uncut.

How much can an Elantra tow with a CURT hitch?

The hitch is rated from 2,000 lb to 2,000 lb depending on the part, but the Elantra's own tow rating in the owner's manual is the ceiling. The lower of the two numbers is your limit, every time.
