Question:

I saw on your website that Curt Class III Round Tube Receiver Hitch will fit a 2016 BMW X6. I just want to know specifically for my car: 2016 X6 50i M Sport Package, how hard it is to install the hitch and how much of a fascia trim has to be done?

Yes, the Curt Hitch part # 13077 has been confirmed as a fit for your 2016 BMW X6 with the M Sports Package. My technical contact at Curt confirmed the fit of this hitch on your X6 M model.

If you wanted to do some towing you might be interested in etrailer ball mount kit # 989900. It comes with 2 ball mounts; one with a 3/4 inch rise or 2 inch drop and one with a 2-3/4 inch rise or 4 inch drop. It also includes a 1-7/8 inch ball, 2 inch ball, hitch pin with clip, and a storage bag.

If the ball mount kit does not include a ball mount with the right rise or drop to tow the trailer level, check out the link I have included that explains how to measure to choose a ball mount to tow the trailer level.

For trailer wiring you would need the Curt harness part # C59236.
