Land Rover Discovery Sport Trailer Hitch Buyer’s Guide (Canada)
A hitch turns your Rover Discovery Sport into the one that takes a bike rack, a cargo carrier, a utility trailer or a small boat. CURT builds two hitches for the Land Rover Discovery Sport from 2008 to 2019, Class 3, rated 4,000 lb to 4,500 lb, from $279.47 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 Land Rover Discovery Sport
Wiring, ball mount and the rest
A bike rack needs nothing but the hitch. A trailer needs lights, and CURT 56297 ($119.76 CAD) is the four-flat harness that plugs into the Rover Discovery Sport's factory connector for 2015 through 2019. No cutting, no scotch-locks.
Then a ball mount sized to the receiver: CURT 45836 ($41.70 CAD) drops straight into a 2-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.
Land Rover Discovery Sport hitch questions
Which CURT hitch fits my Land Rover Discovery Sport?
It depends on the year. CURT 13396 is the newest, for 2015 through 2019, 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 a Rover Discovery Sport with this hitch?
Yes. The 2-inch receiver takes any 2-inch rack, and a loaded rack counts against the hitch's tongue weight (675 lb on CURT 13396), 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 13396 a novice install, about 45 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 a Rover Discovery Sport tow with a CURT hitch?
The hitch is rated from 4,000 lb to 4,500 lb depending on the part, but the Rover Discovery Sport's own tow rating in the owner's manual is the ceiling. The lower of the two numbers is your limit, every time.
