How to Select a Trailer Hitch
A listed Qashqai often lands on a Class 3 two inch receiver when the plan is bikes, a small cargo box, or a light utility trailer under the Nissan sticker.
Watch on YouTubeShopping a trailer hitch for a Nissan Qashqai in Canada? Start with the door-sticker year, then open the live CURT 13377 Class 3 card. That hitch covers listed 2017 through 2023 Qashqai years on a two inch receiver, with about three thousand five hundred pounds gross trailer weight and five hundred twenty-five pounds tongue weight on the hitch card. The same SKU also covers listed Rogue Sport years, and that sibling already has its own buyers guide. Read the Nissan tow limit before you treat the Class 3 stamp as a blank cheque for bikes, a cargo box, or a light weekend trailer.
All four videos are from the official CURT YouTube channel (@curtmfg). Use them for class selection, install habits, wiring basics, and ball-mount height before you dig into the product cards below.

Watch on YouTubeCURT 13377 is the Class 3 hitch for listed 2017 through 2023 Nissan Qashqai years. The live card rates about three thousand five hundred pounds gross trailer weight and five hundred twenty-five pounds tongue weight on a two inch receiver, with a concealed main body for a cleaner look under the bumper. Confirm your exact year against the live list rather than assuming every Canadian Qashqai shares this SKU.
Rogue Sport shoppers land on the same 13377 shelf for listed 2017 through 2022 years. Keep that badge separate in your head, and open the Rogue Sport buyers guide when the fender says Sport instead of Qashqai. Full-size Rogue keeps its own buyers guide and hitch cards. Do not stretch 13377 onto a full-size Rogue just because the names look related.
| Topic | What we tell shoppers |
|---|---|
| Door sticker first | A hitch is not a blank cheque. Read the Nissan tow limit, then open hitch versus vehicle tow rating. |
| Qashqai versus Sport | Same 13377 shelf, different badge and year window. Open the Rogue Sport guide when that is the vehicle in the bay. |
| Full-size Rogue | Keep the larger Rogue on its own guide: Nissan Rogue hitch guide. |
| Bike rack reality | Plenty of Qashqai owners only want bikes or a small box. Open hitch for bike rack only. |
| Wiring gap | We do not invent a Qashqai-only four-flat on this page. Start with the wiring harness guide, then trailer light converter tips if turn signals need help. |
| Receiver size | Match accessories to the two inch opening. See the receiver size guide. |
| Install habits | Confirm install notes on the live 13377 card, then recheck hardware after salted trips. See hitch bolt torque tips. |
Year jumps we publish for the Qashqai years on the live 13377 card. Open the lander that matches the model year on your door sticker, then confirm the live hitch card still lists that year. We only link landers that already exist. This run has 2017 through 2021 and 2023. We do not currently publish a 2022 Qashqai lander, so confirm that year on the live product card instead of inventing a page.
Keep the tube covered when empty, pin what you insert, and quiet chatter with an anti-rattle kit sized for two inch. Ball mounts must match that opening. If you need rise instead of drop to level a low trailer, open the rise versus drop guide after you pick the shank size.
Parts-counter summary: match the listed Qashqai year to 13377, respect the Nissan door sticker under the hitch rating, keep Rogue Sport and full-size Rogue on their own guides when the badge differs, plan wiring carefully because a dedicated Qashqai harness is not invented here, and never let hitch tube looks outvote the sticker.
