Ordered this hitch for my 2015 2-door Mini Cooper (just a plain Mini -- not an S or a "John C works"). NOTE: 2015 Minis have the spare under the car (even though the etrailer site seems to suggest that SOME 2015 Minis do not), so I needed to "sacrifice" my spare tire to install the hitch. I read online that most new cars don't come with spares. I am a retired lady and drive only in town and I would call roadside service for a flat. (I purchased an emergency air-compressor kit for peace of mind.) I took the hitch to my mechanic, who appreciated the install sheet I printed out (he had never installed a hitch on a Mini) and other information on the etrailer site. I got the hitch so I can use a Thule Helium Aero 2-bike rack (see photos). It looks great and works great.

After one year, this hitch continues to work perfectly on my Mini, allowing me to use the Thule Helium Aero bike rack. Ive taken my bike to the beach a 300-mile round trip on the rack and on many trips to local bike trails. No problems only fun with my bike! And my Mini has not had a flat tire so I have not had to use my emergency air-compressor kit. :

etrailer should had told me that the model I purchased required the removal of a spare tire. There is another model that doesnt require the removal of the spare. I was on my way to the emergency vet with 2 dogs in the car and hit a pot hole and blew out my tire...I wish I had my spare ...I received BAD information!

This Curt hitch part C11417 is not designed to fit mini coopers with a spare tire stored underneath the vehicle. If you would like to keep your spare tire stored underneath the vehicle you will need ecohitch part # 306-X7290.

  • Solution to Haul 2 Heavy E-Bikes W/ a 2015 Mini Cooper S
    Hey Carol, I hate to be the bearer of bad news but unfortunately the weight of your bikes plus the bike rack is going to exceed the 200 lb tongue weight rating on the Curt Trailer Hitch Receiver # C11417. Even if this hitch did have a 300 lb tongue weight rating, using a 2" receiver adapter would cut the capacity by 50% so you still wouldn't have enough. So if you already have a class I hitch you'd have to switch it out with a class II one like # EH47FR and then use the Hollywood Racks...

  • Availability of Trailer Hitch that Fits 2015 Mini Cooper S Hardtop with Center Exhaust
    The EcoHitch part # EH67FR is a fit for your 2015 Mini Cooper S hardtop that has the center exhaust like what you described having so this would fit and work well for you.

  • Trailer Hitch for 2015 Mini Cooper Hardtop With Spare Tire
    The Curt trailer hitch # C11417 is actually NOT a fit for a 2015 Mini with a spare tire. Instead you would need the EcoHitch # 306-X7290 which does fit a Mini with a spare tire. While we have not test fit this hitch I did add a photo from the installation instructions that show how the hitch will look when installed. As you can see the hitch sits directly on the bottom of the bumper so you should be able to use that as a reference so you can find the clearance on that hitch.

  • Trailer Hitch for 2014 Mini Cooper Hardtop, Single Exhaust
    As long as your 2014 Mini Cooper hardtop has a single exhaust and is not a S series or John Cooper Works, the Curt # C11417 will work great for you. Based on the photo you attached of your Mini Coooper, it looks like the hitch will work well for you. I have attached the installation instructions for the hitch for you. Curt's warranty does require all non-trailer loads to be supported by a stabilization strap, # 18050.

  • How to Carry a Rollator Walker on a 2014 Mini Cooper
    There is a possibility that you could attach your Rollator Walker to the Yakima FullBack 2 Bike Rack part # Y02634 but I would not be able to confirm this as that is not the intended purpose of the bike rack. If it were possible then you would more than likely need an adapter bar like part # Y02531 but again I cannot recommend this as it has not been tested. Instead, I recommend using a trailer hitch and cargo carrier as this would be a much safer option for you and it can be acquired...

  • Trailer Hitch Receiver For Carrying a Bike Rack With a 2024 Mini Cooper SE
    I cannot confirm you will be able to use the Curt Trailer Hitch Receiver on your 2024 Mini Cooper SE as we and Curt have not been able to test fit it on your vehicle. I do have a better option you can consider from Torklift as it will come with a 2" receiver as well and is confirmed to fit your vehicle. Here is a link to make finding it easier as we do not carry it. https://torkliftcentral.com/mini-cooper-se-trailer-hitch-by-ecohitchr-stainless-steel

  • Recommended Trailer Hitch for 2014 Mini Cooper
    If your customer has the 2014 Mini Cooper Hardtop with the single exhaust, and it is not the S Series or John Cooper Works, then I recommend the Curt Class I Receiver Hitch # C11417. This will fit the base model Cooper whether it is the 3-door or 5-door model hatchback. This Class I hitch will use existing holes in the vehicle's frame for a no-drill installation, although you will need to remove and reattach the bumper beam and plastic bumper support. Also note that the hitch will not...

  • Installation Instructions for 2015 Mini Cooper Curt Trailer Hitch
    If you check out the link I attached you will see install instructions for the Curt Hitch part # C11417 which has been confirmed as a fit for your 2015 Mini Cooper. The most popular bike rack we carry that has been confirmed to fit this vehicle is the Swagman XTC2 Bike Rack part # S64670. This rack has a ton of positive reviews from our customers who have tried it. Check out the review video I attached for more info.

  • E-Bike Rack Recommendation for 2015 Mini Cooper
    You'll have to install a hitch like the Curt part # C11417 which is confirmed to fit your 2015 Mini Cooper Hardtop as long as it has single exhaust. Then for a e-bike rack we have the Thule EasyFold part # TH903202 which fits the hitch I mentioned and has a 65 lb capacity. It's realistically the only option that you have since most high capacity bike racks are designed for higher capacity hitches. If you plan on carrying any womens or alternative framed bikes without horizontal top tubes...

  • Recommended Solution to Carry 4 Bikes on 2017 Mini Cooper 4 Door with Hardtop
    I have a solution for you, but the Curt # C11417 is not a confirmed fit on the 2017 Mini Cooper; it is designed for older models of the Mini Cooper only. The only available hitch confirmed to fit the 2017 Mini Cooper (excluding S and John Cooper Works editions) is the EcoHitch # 306-X7290, which has a 1-1/4" receiver. With that said, this EcoHitch is a Class I hitch with a 150-lbs tongue weight capacity and you cannot carry 4 bikes on a Class I receiver. I'll also note that you would...

  • Fit and Compatibility of Curt Trailer Hitch # C11417 on a 2015 Mini Cooper Hardtop 4-Door
    The Curt trailer hitch # C11417 will fit your 2015 Mini Cooper Hardtop 4-door if you have the single exhaust base model and do not have a spare tire stored underneath your vehicle. If you plan on using your hitch for a bike rack like the Thule Helium Pro # TH9042PRO or cargo carrier like # C18145 per Curt's warranty you must use a stabilization strap like # 18050 to secure the load. I have linked all the above mentioned products to this page for your viewing convenience.

  • What Size Hitch is Available for 2015 Mini Cooper Hardtop
    For lighter duty vehicles like your 2015 Mini Cooper 4 door hardtop we only have 1-1/4 inch hitches available like the Curt # C11417 as the 2 inch hitch size is only available for heavier duty vehicles like trucks and SUVs.

  • How To Carry 300lbs Of Cargo With Trailer Hitch Receiver On 2015 Mini Cooper
    I may have another option for you, but there is not a 2" trailer hitch receiver made for your 2015 Mini Cooper at this time. Since you do not have an S or John Cooper Works Model the hitch with the highest tongue weight rating is the Curt Trailer Hitch Receiver # C11417 which has a 200lb tongue weight rating and 2000lb trailer weight rating. If you have a spare tire located under your vehicle you will need to remove it to install the # C11417. To be able to carry 300lbs with your Mini...

  • Is There a Trunk Mount Bike Rack To Carry A Trike On a 2015 Mini Cooper
    I do have an option for you but there is no such thing as a trunk mounted bike rack that would hold a recumbent trike. The only option for you to carry said bike is with the Hollywood Racks Sport Rider Bike Rack part # HR1000Z-R-TRKADP. In order to use the Hollywood Racks Sport Rider Bike Rack on your 2015 Mini Cooper you would need a trailer hitch, the Curt Trailer Hitch Receiver part # C11417 is what I recommend. I have attached an install photo of the hitch for you which as you can...
