Question:
Do you have a 2" hitch for a 2012 Volvo XC 70? We would like to use our bike rack from another vehicle on our Volvo but it only fits a class III 2" receiver.

Yes, we do. To add a 2" hitch to your 2012 Volvo XC70, I recommend the etrailer Hitch item # e77KR. This hitch is custom fit and bolts to your Volvo with included hardware. This is a class III hitch with a 2" receiver. It has a 350 lbs maximum tongue weight so you will have plenty of capacity for a bike rack.
I really like this hitch because the crosstube mounts behind the rear bumper. This not only looks better but it also helps with ground clearance.
If you are planning on towing you will also need a wiring harness item # C56386 and a ball mount kit item # C45534.
