Obviously they are not referring to US towing specs. The real question is whether if you do not opt for factory hitch you are getting the same drivetrain hardware as with the hitch option (fan, engine and transmission cooling system, rear suspension, etc.). Somebody would need to compare the parts realoem.



Stealth’s fully welded tow hitch for the BMW X5 G05 is strong and durable with a Lifetime Guarantee. The combination of a stainless steel latch block and powder coat finish provides excellent rust protection allowing you to enjoy your eco-adventures and not worry about the function of your hitch.

The vehicle capacities with the BMW X5 tow hitch are:

7,800 pounds - gross trailer weight (GTW)
600 pounds - tongue weight (TW)
Stealth Hitches are designed to exceed vehicle capacities by a minimum of 50%. We list the vehicle capacities, not hitch capacities, to give our customers more meaningful data. Please confirm capacities with the vehicle owner’s manual.
