Expert Reply:

To add a hitch to your 2023 Acura MDX, I recommend the etrailer Hitch item # e27KR. This hitch is custom fit and bolts to your Acura with included hardware.

I really like this hitch because the cross tube installs behind your rear bumper cover. This leaves only the 2" x 2" receiver visible. The matte black powder coat finish not only offers superior rust protection but it also helps to conceal the receiver below your bumper trim.

The etrailer Hitch item # e27KR is made in the USA and weighs 46 lbs. This is a class III hitch with a 2" receiver. It has a 6,000 lbs towing capacity and a 900 lbs maximum tongue weight, which can be increased to 8,000 lbs when used with a weight distribution system.

I have linked a couple of pictures below along with an installation video so you can see what this hitch looks like when installed.

The full size spare tire will not fit with the etrailer Hitch item # e27KR.

If you are planning on towing you will also need a ball mount kit item # C45534.
