Recommended Trailer Hitch for 2021 Mercedes-Benz GLA250
Question:
Need a hitch for a 2021 Mercedes GLA250.
asked by: Seann F
Expert Reply:
For your 2021 Mercedes-Benz GLA250 I recommend the Draw-Tite Max-Frame Trailer Hitch Receiver # 75223. This is a Class III hitch with a 2" receiver and a bolt-on installation. Out of all of the options available I like this one the best because it has a concealed cross tube. That means you have better clearance and a clean look since only the receiver is visible at the rear.
If you plan on towing you will also need the Tekonsha Powered Tail Light Converter w/ 4-Way Flat # 119147KIT. For a ball mount, check out the etrailer Ball Mount Kit # 989900.
I have attached some review and installation videos below for your reference.
