Trailer Hitch Recommendation for a 2016 BMW X1
Question:
The 2016 model X1 is quite different in its dimensions from the previous X1 models. All the reviews for this hitch are for previous models, and so Im wondering if this will fit the same, or if this hitch has been updated to accommodate the new build? Thank you for your response. Best,

Expert Reply:
Actually for the 2016 BMW the Curt hitch part # C13303 is the recommended hitch that you referenced. This hitch is confirmed as a fit for the redesigned 2016 model.
For trailer wiring you would then want the T-One Vehicle Wiring Harness with 4-Pole Flat Connector # 118717
If you wanted to do some towing you might be interested in etrailer ball mount kit # 989900. It comes with 2 ball mounts; one with a 3/4 inch rise or 2 inch drop and one with a 2-3/4 inch rise or 4 inch drop. It also includes a 1-7/8 inch ball, 2 inch ball, hitch pin with clip, and a storage bag.
