Question:
Is this hitch compatible with a 2024 Mercedes GLE 450e? Part of the lower cargo compartment in the 450e is taken up by a battery and I don’t know whether that interferes with installation.

Hello Richard.
Yes, the Stealth Hitches Hidden Rack Receiver - Custom Fit - 2" # SH99MR is a great fit for your 2024 Mercedes GLE 450e. The location of the battery does not interfere with the location or installation of this hitch. This hitch is a great option for a concealed look when not in use as you are able to completely remove the receiver. This hitch is intended for accessory use only, so it is great for bike racks, cargo carriers, etc. The receiver is not for towing. If you are looking to tow a trailer and need a ball mount and wiring I recommend adding Towing Kit w/ Ball Mount and Trailer Wiring for Stealth Hitches Hidden Rack Receiver - 2" Ball # SH62MR.

Hey Richard, how did the Stealth Hitches Hidden Rack Receiver work out on your GLE 450e? I’m curious if the fit stayed as clean as expected with the battery setup. Your update could make it easier for the next person with the same model.
