Yes, it does! The etrailer Hitch item # e94CR has been confirmed to fit all models of the 2024 Audi Q5 including the plug-in hybrid model. This hitch is custom fit and bolts to your Audi with included hardware. It is a class III hitch with a 2" receiver.

I really like the etrailer item # e94CR because the crosstube mounts behind your rear bumper cover leaving only the 2" receiver visible. This not only looks better but also helps with ground clearance.

I have linked an installation video below along with the instructions so you can see how to get this hitch set up.

If you are planning on towing you will also need a wiring harness item # 119250KIT and a ball mount kit item # C45534.

hi Jerred, does the hitch require rear fascia trimming? (2024 Q5 non-hybrid version). I watched 2023 Audi Q5 installation video - seems that either the trimming is not required, but would like to confirm. Thank you.

@Mike No, it does not! The etrailer Hitch item # e94CR does not require any trimming when installed on the 2024 Audi Q5. What are you planning on using the hitch for?

Thanks for the confirmation @JerredH, I'm planning to use it for a bike rack, no towing.

The difference between the Class II and Class III hitches has to do with their Gross Trailer Weight (GTW), their Tongue Weight (TW), and their Hitch Receiver Size. Class II trailer hitch receivers have a 1-1/4 inch receiver and can be rated up to…
