Recommended Trailer Hitch for 2022 Audi Q5 to Carry Bike Rack

Question:

I have a new 2022 Q5 and need a hitch for a bike rack but don't want an ugly bulky hitch sticking out the back when not using the bike rack.

I suggest the Stealth Hitches Hidden Rack Receiver, # 391AUDQ518 for your 2022 Audi Q5. This completely hidden hitch keeps your Audi Q5 looking like it just came off the assembly line. You can remove the receiver for a fully concealed look when you're not carrying your bikes. This won't affect ground clearance or block your trunk's foot-access sensor. It is a simple, bolt-on installation - no drilling or welding required.

If you do not already have a bike rack, I suggest you consider the Thule EasyFold XT Bike Rack, # TH903202. This bike rack has a weight capacity of 65 lbs. per bike which is great in supporting the increasingly popular ebike models. It has a ramp that lets you load your bikes with no lifting required and folds up for compact storage. The built-in handles and wheels make it easy roll around the garage floor to its storage location and easiy roll back out again tot he back of the vehicle when needed.
