I really like the etrailer Trailer Hitch Receiver # e95AR for your 2017 Volvo XC60. This features a hidden crosstube and a matte black finish for a really sleek yet durable look. The matte black finish is also a bit more tough than the classic glossy black finish we see on most other hitches which means it will resist corrosion longer and better than the glossy alternative.

If you were planning on using this for a bike rack I recommend checking out the Thule T2 Pro XTR # TH83JV because it's a wheel mount platform carrier that can handle 60 lb bikes with up to 5" wide tires meaning it's compatible with a wide variety of bike styles out there. This has some ease of use features built in like a tool-free installation and a handle at the front of the rack that makes it easier to tilt and fold the rack.
