For a great 2" inch hitch for your 2022 Mitsubishi Eclipse Cross, I recommend the Draw-Tite Max-Frame Trailer Hitch Receiver - Custom Fit # DT97GR. Apart from the easy, 40-minute installation, the Draw-Tite hitch comes with the highest tongue and gross towing weight capacity we offer for your vehicle. The hitch comes with all hardware required for a simple bolt-on installation.

If you are looking for a great light-weight option of 2-bike bike rack for the hitch, I recommend the Thule Helium Pro 2 Bike Rack - 1-1/4" and 2" Hitches # TH9042PRO. Not only does this rack weigh only 19 pounds, it also has a long shank (8 inches long from the center of the pinhole to the closest part of the rack) to avoid bumper clearance issues with the hitch. If you plan on using women's bikes, children's bikes, or bikes with step-thru frames, I recommend the bike frame adapter bar # HRBA-PRO.
