Key Features:
This EcoHitch features a fully concealed design that preserves the clean rear appearance of your Subaru Ascent. When not in use, the receiver hides behind the factory knockout panel so only the receiver opening is visible during operation. The hitch integrates seamlessly into the vehicle’s design without adding visual bulk or disrupting styling.
Modern bike racks, especially those designed for electric bikes, place greater vertical load demands on a hitch system. EcoHitch features designs that are engineered to handle increased tongue weight without requiring additional stabilization straps. Before finalizing your setup, use the Maximum Hitch Weight (Tongue Weight) Estimator to confirm your vehicle and accessory combination stays within safe operating limits.
Many E-Bike rack manufacturers recommend or require a Class 3 hitch. While not all hitches are built equally, EcoHitch designs are engineered to meet demanding performance standards for hitch-mounted accessories. Always verify your specific rack requirements and confirm your setup using the Maximum Hitch Weight (Tongue Weight) Estimator to ensure safe operation.
Rated for 750 pounds of tongue weight at the trailer ball and 5,000 pounds of towing capacity, this hitch is built to support towing and accessory applications alike.
Installation is straightforward and requires no drilling. The hitch mounts directly to factory attachment points and meets national SAE J684 towing safety standards. The result is a secure, vehicle-specific fit without permanent modifications.
This hitch is engineered to avoid interference with factory auto-latching and power liftgate systems on compatible Subaru Ascent models. You retain everyday convenience while adding towing capability.
Designed to complement the Subaru Ascent’s contours, this hitch maintains airflow and styling integrity. Its lightweight construction adds capability without unnecessary bulk.
Finished with a high-impact powder coat, this hitch resists corrosion and long-term wear. It is manufactured using 100% recycled and recyclable materials, supporting environmentally responsible production practices.
Proudly manufactured in the United States, this EcoHitch is backed by a Legendary Lifetime Warranty. Free shipping is available in the lower 48 states.
***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.
