Hi Howie,
I've got a couple hitch options for you, it just depends on what kind of look you want for your 2023 Audi SQ5. If you don't mind if the hitch receiver shows but the cross tube is hidden, the most cost-effective option is the etrailer Custom Fit Trailer Hitch Receiver part # e94CR. It requires no drilling to install and will bolt straight to the frame. It has a matte powder coat to prevent rusting and is rated for 750lbs tongue weight and 5k towing. I've included a photo below and an installation video on the same year, make, model for you to look at.
If you're wanting a cleaner look with the hitch receiver tube and cross tube not visible, then the Stealth Hitches Trailer Hitch w/Towing Kit part # 391AUDQ518T would be ideal. The hitch receiver tube is removable, giving a clean look and maintains your ground clearance. The # 391AUDQ518T is rated for 600lbs tongue weight and 6k towing, it includes the towing kit with ball mount and trailer wiring so you can tow with this kit in addition to using it for hitch accessories. If you're only wanting to carry bike racks, cargo carriers, etc. you can use the Stealth Trailer Hitches Rack Receiver part # 391AUDQ518 that is the hitch only and purchase the Stealth Hitches Towing Kit part # 391CONVD5 separate later if you decide to tow anything.
What are you planning on using your hitch for?
