- Which Hitch fits a 2010 BMW X3 SUV
- Hitch # 11771 is for 2006 BMW 325xi Wagons and 2007-2010 328 Wagons, not the BMW X3.
The proper hitch for a 2010 BMW X3 is Curt part # 13573. BMW X3s are not in the 3 series family like the coupes, sedans and wagons are. When shopping for parts in the future, remember to look specifically for the X3, not 3 series.
