Trailer Hitch Style
Our EcoHitch® line comes in three styles: Stealth, Hidden and Invisi. The WRX trailer hitch features our Invisi Design. All EcoHitch® models are precision manufactured to have hidden cross tubes and receivers when installed. The only part of this Invisi-Style hitch that is ever visible is the receiver when in use. When not using this WRX hitch, simply insert your factory knock out panel back in front of the hitch and your hitch is invisible. Nothing to see here Houdini. Plus – this hitch has the highest level of ground clearance possible. What it boils down to? No jumbo metal hitch hanging down low behind and below your rear bumper. Plus you can trick everyone when you are not using your hitch – because they can’t see it. So invisible, you will forget it is there.
Hitch Receiver Size
This WRX trailer hitch is made to accommodate your bike rack, cargo trays and hauling needs. It features a 2 inch receiver opening which is the most common size for all your carrying needs. However, we also have it available in the less common 1 ¼-inch option as well.
Simple Install
It was designed with simplicity in mind. It features a 100 percent bolt on installation which means you don’t drill into your frame at all during your WRX hitch install – we use existing mounting locations that work with the design of your WRX. This leads us to another reason you want this hitch – it does not interrupt the aerodynamics of your vehicle’s design because it is tucked behind your bumper and prevents you from having to mount your bikes and other cargo on your roof.
EcoHitch® trailer hitch strength
This WRX trailer hitch is rated at 300 pounds tongue weight at the trailer ball and 2,000 pounds towing weight.** It is coated in high impact powder coat featuring our Chasm Black finish. The powder coating process for our EcoHitch® is time intensive and includes sand blasting which is something other manufacturers fail to do. All our hitches are sand blasted to ensure the metal is clean and ensures the strongest bond between the metal and the powder coating to allow for long lasting durability. The material used in this WRX trailer hitch can include a combination of up to three 100% recycled and recyclable materials including aerospace grade aluminum, stainless steel and steel.
American Made with a REAL Warranty
This WRX trailer hitch is proudly made in America and backed by our Legendary Lifetime Warranty. We do not mess around with this warranty. When you call us you get an actual person who is knowledgeable about the product and can walk you through an installation if you choose to install this hitch yourself.
**Although your EcoHitch® tongue weight and tow weight rating might be exceedingly high – this is because we build our hitches to withstand all kinds of beatings – your vehicle’s towing capacity could be lower. Please consult your vehicle’s owners manual to determine your factory tow weight rating and never exceed it. No aftermarket products can increase your factory tow weight rating. If your vehicle's tow rating is less than the rated towing capacity on your EcoHitch® trailer hitch, your trailer hitch capacity is limited to your vehicle's factory rated towing capacity. Please check your owner’s manual to confirm your vehicle is rated to tow. As a general rule, the use of extensions, hitch adapters, bike racks, cargo trays and other towing accessories can reduce the tongue weight capacity / vertical load capacity of your vehicle’s receiver hitch. When extensions, hitch adapters, bike racks, cargo trays and other towing accessories are added to your receiver hitch and are under 12” in length, it reduces load capacity by 25 percent, and if it is over 12” it reduces load capacity by 50 percent.
