Question:

I am researching trailer hitch receivers for a 2016 Audi A3, and the Curt 11399 is the recommended one, however it states excluding the e-tron which is what I have. I havent been able to find any other receivers that include the e-tron. Did I miss something, or is there not a hitch receiver for an e-tron at all? Thanks

I may have a solution for you if you're just looking to carry bikes, but there are unfortunately not hitches that have been designed to fit on the 2016 A3 e-Tron. However, the Yakima Fullback # Y02633 is designed to fit a variety of vehicles and has been confirmed to fit on the 2016 Audi A3 e-Tron and would allow you to carry up to 3 bikes. The Fullback is a great solution that has adjustable arms to help keep the bikes level and comes with locks to secure the bikes and the rack to the vehicle.

I've linked a short review video of this rack in case you're interested.
