Hi, Will the kuat Sherpa 2.0 platform rack fit my 2020 Mercedes gls with hitch package? If so, do I need an adaptor? Does it come with a hitch and bike lock? Thanks,

Just make sure that there is less than 11 inches from the hitch pin hole on your hitch to the edge of your bumper on your 2020 Mercedes GLS. If so, you'll be able to use it without any clearance issues. The Sherpa does come with a hitch and bike cable lock so no need to buy them separate. I like the pearl color on the Sherpa 2.0 # SH22P but it comes in black # SH22B and Grey # SH22G. One attachment I like using with the Sherpa is the Pivot # PVP20B swing away system. It'll allow you to get full access to the back of your Mercedes even with the bikes installed. This is great for loading/unloading and getting prepped for your day at the trails.
