Each year page has the hitch, the harness and the ball mount that go together, with the price of each.
CURT parts for the Toyota Yaris
Wiring, ball mount and the rest
A bike rack needs nothing but the hitch. A trailer needs lights, and CURT 56236 ($103.98 CAD) is the four-flat harness that plugs into the Yaris's factory connector for 2012 through 2013 and 2015. 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.
Toyota Yaris hitch questions
Which CURT hitch fits my Toyota Yaris?
It depends on the year. CURT 11480 covers 2007 through 2020, a Class 1 hitch with a 1-1/4 inch receiver rated to 2,000 lb. Open your year page and the exact hitch, price and wiring are on it.
Can I put a bike rack on a Yaris 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 11480), 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 11480 a novice install, about 30 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 Yaris tow with a CURT hitch?
The hitch is rated to 2,000 lb, but the Yaris's own tow rating in the owner's manual is the ceiling. The lower of the two numbers is your limit, every time.
