Key Features:

  • Versatile Combo Rack and Tow Hitch: The EcoHitch allows you to tow or use a bike rack without needing any additional accessories. Some other hitches require separate adapters for towing, the EcoHitch is designed to do it all, providing seamless integration for all your towing and bike rack needs.
  • Completely Concealed Stealth Design: Only the receiver is visible, maintaining your Sportage sleek appearance. Receiver is removable when not in use.
  • Patent Pending Stainless Steel Receiver: The world’s only REAL stainless steel trailer hitch receiver—built to stay rust free for life. Ordinary hitches can develop creeping rust that spreads beyond the hitch, bleeding orange streaks onto your bumper, accessories, and even your garage floor—stains that can’t be scrubbed away. Our stainless steel design stops corrosion before it starts, so your vehicle stays sharp, your gear never fuses in place, and your garage floors or driveways stay pristine. Learn more here.
  • E-Bike Rated: Planning your set up? Be sure to use our new Maximum Hitch Weight (Tongue Weight) Estimator to be certain you are not overloading your trailer hitch or your vehicle. EcoHitch features many hitch designs engineered to handle the extra weight of E-Bikes without requiring the use of additional straps. EcoHitch offers some of the highest tongue weight capacity available— for securely transporting bikes, cargo trays, additional gear, etc.
  • Class 3 Compatible? – Check Your Setup: Most E-Bike rack manufacturers require a Class 3 hitch. Many EcoHitches feature designs similar to Class 3 performance standards, but not all hitch offerings support every one of the Class 3 standards. Whether you're using an EcoHitch or another hitch, maintain your confidence that your hitch combination can safely carry your E-Bike setup- use our Maximum Hitch Weight (Tongue Weight) Estimator to estimate your set up.
  • Easy Installation: 100% bolt-on installation, no drilling required, meeting national SAE J684 towing safety standards.
  • Vehicle Compatibility: Does not interfere with auto-latching and unlatching hatches on vehicles that include this feature.
  • Impressive Towing Capacity: Rated for 600 pounds tongue weight at the trailer ball and 4,000 pounds towing weight.***

  • Free Shipping: Available for the lower 48 states.
  • Made in the U.S.A.: Proudly American-made.

Why Other Trailer Hitches Rust

Traditional hitches may prevent accessories from fusing with the vehicle frame-mounted part but fail to protect against rust, causing inconvenience and limiting hitch usage.

Simple Installation

Designed for simplicity, our hitch offers a 100 percent bolt-on installation that won’t disrupt your vehicle’s aerodynamics or require roof-mounted cargo.

EcoHitch® Trailer Hitch Strength

Coated in high-impact powder coat with a Chasm Black finish, our hitches are meticulously sandblasted for maximum durability. Made from a combination of aerospace-grade aluminum, stainless steel, and steel.

American-Made with a REAL Warranty

Proudly Made in America, our Sportage hitch is backed by our Legendary Lifetime Warranty. Our knowledgeable team is ready to assist you with installation and support.

***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.
