I just spoke with my rep at Stealth Hitches to confirm. You're going to need the Stealth Hitches Hidden Trailer Hitch Receiver w/ Towing Kit item # SH62VR for your 2021 BMW X3 30e Hybrid. The Stealth Hitches trailer hitch includes everything you need to hook up your trailer for towing. The ball mount pops into the hitch's center block so you can attach your trailer's coupler to the hitch ball. The wiring harness lets you power your trailer's lights. And the safety chain loops let you attach your trailer's safety chains.

A receiver attachment is included as well for those times you need to use a bike rack or cargo carrier instead of towing your trailer. I have attached an installation video we did on a 2022 model so you can understand the process. I have also attached a view from beneath the rear of an X3 that while show you how well hidden the hitch will be when not in use.
