Subaru STI and WRX — 2015 - 2021 — EcoHitch® Trailer Hitch
IN STOCK
Looking for the best trailer hitch for your Subaru WRX or STI? This one is built to outperform every alternative.
Featuring the world’s only 2” receiver, this hitch is engineered for seamless compatibility, it lets you use all your existing hitch accessories without the need for extra adapters that cause rattling, noise, or instability—giving you a smooth, quiet, and secure driving experience every time.
Our streamlined design features a 100% concealed cross tube with a receiver that is angled upward just enough, offering you superior ground clearance and assuring your rack and bikes remain level and avoid scraping damage—unlike bulky “diaper hitches” that hang low across your bumper and scrape.
This hitch has the highest weight ratings on the market for both towing and hauling. With a tongue weight rating of 525 pounds, this hitch is designed to haul E-bikes, cargo trays, camping gear, or other adventure essentials without breaking a sweat.
This hitch features an Invisi design, meaning the entire cross tube and receiver is completely invisible behind the factory knock out panel.
Built to outlast and outperform, EcoHitch is the ultimate hitch solution for Subaru STI and WRX owners.

*WARNING* Your vehicle may have a lower tow rating than this trailer hitch. If your vehicle’s tow rating is less than the rated towing capacity on your Torklift Central trailer hitch, your trailer hitch capacity is limited to your vehicle’s factory rated towing capacity.
***IMPORTANT NOTICE:
While EcoHitch®️ trailer hitches are built with high-strength materials and tested for exceptional weight ratings, your vehicle’s factory towing capacities are the ultimate limit. Always refer to your vehicle’s owner’s manual to determine its maximum towing and tongue weight ratings. No aftermarket hitch or accessory can increase your vehicle’s factory-rated towing capacities.
Using hauling accessories like extensions, cargo trays, bike racks, or other accessories that extend the load out from the trailer hitch, will significantly reduce the tongue weight capacity of your hitch system.
To estimate how your setup will affect tongue weight, we recommend using our Maximum Hitch Weight (Tongue Weight) Estimator before hauling your payload (cargo trays, bike racks, etc).
Disclaimer: It is the user’s responsibility to ensure safe towing practices and to confirm that all loads fall within the limits of the lowest-rated component in the towing system. Torklift is not liable for any damage or injury resulting from the misuse or overloading of towing/hauling equipment.

Customer Reviews
I'm just worried what are the tips and suggestions on 6 speed wrx in order to prevent any transmission damages/ burning. I don't speed with the trailer so just between 2-3k rpm between gears.
After reading forum posts and other reviews I decided to pull the other hitch off and install the ecohitch. Since I'd already installed one hitch and had practice, installing the ecohitch was a breeze. There are no rattles, it looks great since you can't see it, and it fits perfectly. I got a little creative with the bumper knockout and made it easily removable so when I'm not hauling a bike my Subaru looks completely normal in the back.
The ecohitch is worth the premium over the competition. It works better, looks better, is better.
