Hello all,
A new owner of W213 seden here.
I'm looking for a rear bike rack (ok for 3 bike), any suggestion? I don't have trailer hook.
I know the Europe has a automatic trailer hook and custom bike rack but doesn't seem to sell here
I so want that one! Oh well
Any suggestions are welcome. Thanks in advance!

What about a roof-rack? Seems like the only option if you dont have trailerhook

I spent a couple of hundred bucks on installing a hitch receiver at the local hitch shop. There are tonnes of racks that work with it. The roof is also an option but this is more quiet.

I'm getting the trailer hitch on my next w213 (august), so i can install a bike rack
does anyone know how much weight it supports and if it comes with a 13 pin plug (weirdly no info can be found)
And if anyone has any feedback on what bike rack to get ?
they range widely in price (between 200 & 900 euros) and it's difficult to understand why..

I got a stealth hitch on my w213 e300 rwd. It works great for my two 60lb e-bikes. I didnt get a 13 pin connection as I didnt plan on towing but I am considering it now. The main downside though is I scrape on some driveways with steep angles because of the load on my rear axle. I need to find an aftermarket suspension system that gives me 2 inches of lift in the back or is just really stiff.

When using the factory trailer hook, the drive assist system switches off .
logical when towing something, but a bit annoying when i drive with my bike rack
I guess i already know the answer but; is there any workaround ?
