Yes, we have the Curt hitch part # C53HR which is a confirmed fit for your 2017 Volvo XC90. This is a Class III hitch with a 2-inch opening that would work well for towing or carrying hitch accessories.

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.

If the ball mount kit does not include a ball mount with the right rise or drop to tow the trailer level, check out the link I have included that explains how to measure to choose a ball mount to tow the trailer level.

For trailer wiring you would want the part # 118683 which is a custom fit trailer wiring kit for your vehicle.
