Question:
What trailer hitch receiver do you recommend for a 2019 Acura MDX Sport Hybrid? Acura does not recommend towing with the Hybrid model, but I just want to use it for my bike rack and cargo carrier. Thanks.

The best hitch solution we offer for your 2019 Acura MDX is the etrailer hitch part # E98840 as it has plenty of capacity for your bike rack, is the least visible option, and has a very easy install. I attached a picture of it installed as well as an install video for more info for you to check out as well.
For a bike rack I really like the Saris Superclamp EX part # SA4025F.
This is a platform bike rack that only touches the bike at the tires and only weighs 35 lbs. The biggest drawback to platform bike racks has always been the weight of them, but with this rack you get the best of both worlds. The preferred attachment style with the lighter weight.
For a cargo carrier I really like the Curt carrier part # C18151as it it can fold when not in use to save space and measures 20 by 59 inches. See review video.

Jameson... I too like Dominic have an 2020 Sports Hybrid that I want to attach my bike rack to. The problem lies with exhaust and battery placement on the hybrid (From what Acura tells me). The OEM hitch doesn't fit. If you guys have figure out any clearence problems, then I'm sure alot of 2019/2020 Acura MDX Sports Hybrid owners will be buying their hitch from etrailer.
