We are looking at the ID4 (Pro or Pro S). Does anyone know whether a VW made or aftermarket receiver hitch will mount to it? If we can't carry bikes with it, we'll need to look at a different vehicle. It would be stunningly stupid of that's not possible.
Yes - it is a little complicated, but there are options. The 1st edition came with a 1-1/4" hitch receiver. That's what I have, and I bought a hitch ball that fits it. A neighbor gave me a bike rack that fits into a 1-1/4" receiver. Easy-peasy. But what is weird is that just Pro or Pro-S don't have a hitch receiver option. I believe you need to order the AWD variant to get that. But if you don't have AWD, there is now an aftermarket option on etrailer from Draw-Tite.
