2021 Corsair Grand Touring PHEV
Please let us know if you've successfully installed (or had it done) a post-purchase trailer hitch on the PHEV.

All the options I see (eTrailer, UHaul, Curt, etc.) say their hitches are not for the PHEV model - and that includes some sites selling OEM Ford parts (LJ7Z-19D520-AA), or they do not break out the Grand Touring separately from Corsair. Those who allow specifying that trim all said no-go.

Hoping to find one with a 2" receiver for a bike rack only, no wiring necessary. I do have the hands-free liftgate, but if that will no longer function, it's not a show stopper. Thanks!
 
The liability falls on the comercial hitch installer if they install a reciever that is greater capacity than the vehicle can handle and the user connects a trailer to that reciever and damage happens. Or any other negative event as well. No commercal business wants to defend themselves legally.
A 2" reciever goes into the category of a class 3 or 4 hitch. (8000 pounds or more)
A 1 1/4" reciever is in the class 1 or 2 category. 2000 or 3500 pound rating.

You might be able to buy a generic reciever at Walmart and install it yourself.
Unless some one replies here that they have done something like that on your exact year and model.
My guess is there is a very low chance of that happening on this site.
You might reach out to companies that handle bicycles and loading options.

The factory installed Class II package includes a 2" receiver.
