For a hitch for your 2018 for your 2018 Acura MDX I recommend the etrailer.com hitch part # E98840 because it is a 2 inch hitch that is a confirmed fit and only has the hitch opening below the rear bumper so it will give you a clean look.
For a bike rack I really like the Saris SuperClamp EX part # SA4025F.
This is a platform bike rack that only touches the bike at the tires and only weighs 35 lbs. The biggest drawback to platform bike racks has always been the weight of them, but with this rack you get the best of both worlds. The preferred attachment style with the lighter weight.
