The trailer hitch I recommend for your 2019 BMW X6 M is the Curt Trailer Hitch Receiver # 13077 because it has a concealed crosstube and is a bolt-on installation that will not require drilling into your BMW's frame to install.

This Class III, 2" trailer hitch is almost entirely hidden behind your bumper, as you can see by the accompanying photo of this hitch installed on a similar BMW. This hitch has a gloss black powder coat finish which helps protect it from corrosion, is made in the USA and comes with a lifetime warranty.

I have added a link to a video of the Curt Trailer Hitch # 13077 being installed on a BMW for you to check out as well as a link to the installation instructions.

For wiring which will give you a 4-way connector and allow you to power your trailer's lights you need Wiring Harness # 119250KIT; you can see an example of how to install this harness on a similar vehicle in the linked video. It is also recommended you use Dielectric Grease for Electrical Connectors # 11755 to help prevent any type of corrosion in your connector, which will increase its durability and extend its lifespan.

I also recommend checking out Ball Mount Kit # 989900, which is for 2” hitches and may fulfill your towing needs in one tidy package; two ball mounts - one with a 3/4” rise or 2” drop and the other with a 2-3/4” rise or 4” drop - a 1-7/8” hitch ball, a 2” hitch ball, and a pin and clip.

You can use the link to the help article on ball mounts I've added to determine if this kit will give you the correct amount of drop or rise. I've also attached a link to our page with each of our ball mounts for you to check out.
