Recommended Class III Hitch for 2020 Audi Q3
Question:
I have a thule bike rack that holds 5 bikes and has a 2”x2” hitch. Can I get a compatible trailer receiver installed? I also may haul a jet ski in the future. Thanks

You can install a hitch like the Draw-Tite # DT68MR, which is a Class III hitch with a 2" receiver that will allow you to carry your Thule bike rack; a 2" receiver is ideal for towing as well, so you'll be well prepared if the need arises in the future.
I've linked our entire selection of trailer wiring harnesses for your Q3 in case you wanted to be proactive on the towing parts. You'll also need a ball mount, hitch ball, hitch pin and clip; you could piece everything together or just get something general like the etrailer Ball Mount Kit # EBMK4.
One option I will mention since it comes with all of the towing components you would need- including a receiver designed for accessories like your bike rack, wiring, tow bar with lockable hitch- is the Stealth Hitches # 391AUDQ319T. The Stealth Hitches isn't just a complete all-in-one package, it's a really nicely designed hitch that installs completely hidden so that when you're not towing or using your bike rack you can remove the receiver and not have anything visible. It's a premium option that is designed with luxury vehicles in mind.
