We have two really great hitch options for your 2020 BMW X5 M50i. We have the mostly hidden Draw Tite hitch part # 76288 that only has the hitch opening hanging below the rear bumper or we have the totally hidden Hidden Hitch part # DT96GR which has a removable hitch opening that allows you to have a totally invisible setup when you don't want the hitch. This hitch does cost more though so you'd have to factor that into your decision.

It sounds like you already have a bike rack but either hitch would do a great job carrying a bike rack designed or a 2 inch hitch like the Kuat NV 2.0 part # NV22G.
