Recommended Hidden Trailer Hitch for 2022 BMW X5  

Updated 03/10/2025 | Published 08/06/2022

Question:

I am considering having a hitch installed on my BMW X5 and wanted to know what the best option is. I definitely want a hitch that is hidden when not I use, as I don’t anticipate heavy regular use of a hitch other than to occasionally haul yard trash with a small trailer.

The best hitch option for your 2022 BMW X5 is going to be the Stealth Hitches Hidden Trailer Hitch Receiver w/ Towing Kit. This hitch has a completely hidden design. The cross tube is concealed behind your rear bumper and the receiver and ball mount detach without tools to stow away when not in use. The hitch won't affect ground clearance or block your trunk's foot-access sensor and it has a bolt-on, no-drill installation.

The correct Stealth hitch option will depend on what trim level your 2022 BMW X5 has.

If you have a model other than the M performance model then you will want to use the Stealth Hitches Hidden Trailer Hitch Receiver w/ Towing Kit # SH25VR.

If you have the M performance model then you will want to use the Stealth Hitches Hidden Trailer Hitch Receiver w/ Towing Kit # SH22MR.

Good morning! I read your response to the question regarding a BMW X5. I also have that vehicle but I have the M package. I don’t know how old this question and response are so I thought I would ask again. As much as I like the looks of the stealth hitches they are crazy expensive. Just wondering if there’s another hitch that might’ve been produced that would fit my BMW X5 with the M package.

@BradL Hey Brad, right now the only hitch for the 2022 BMW X5 with the M package is the Stealth Hitch # SH22MR (with tow kit) and # SH64MR (without tow kit).
