Hey Mike, thanks for reaching out. We do have a hitch for your 2023 Mercedes-Benz GLB 250 AWD. Here is what I recommend:
- Oris Trailer Hitch with Detachable Hitch Receiver - Custom Fit - 2" # TS26VR
This has a 2" receiver which will work with most any bike rack on the market. It has a 350 lb tongue weight capacity so it can handle even heavier bikes. It also has a removable receiver so when you aren't hauling your bikes you can take it off and you won't have to worry about the kick sensor being affected.
What kind of bikes do you have? Do you already have a bike rack? We can provide one if you need! Let me know if there is anything else I can do to help!

Hey Mike, how did the Oris hitch work out on your GLB 250 with your bike rack? Did the removable receiver keep the hands-free liftgate working like you hoped? Your update could make it easier for others setting up the same vehicle.
