Cyndi, I was just able to verify with Curt their Trailer Hitch Receiver # C85VV is now confirmed to fit the 2025 BMW X5. So this will give you a 2" receiver opening. Do understand this will not fit the M or M-sport models.

If you are looking for a bike rack the Kuat # NV22B is one of my favorites as it looks great, is lightweight and has the built in work stand to make working on your bike so much easier.

I see you mention it will not fit M models or M sport package models. I have the M Sport Package on mine. If this will not work is there a hitch that will work? Trying to find one for a bike rack. Thank you!

@HitchP Hello! We do have a hitch for the 2025 BMW X5 with the M Sport packagem but the Curt # C85VV mentioned above will not fit M Sport models. What you will need instead is the Stealth Hitch # SH89VR. This comes with the rack receiver only. If you intend to tow a trailer you will also need the # SH52TR Towing Kit.
