My 2019 W463A has the OEM hitch ball. What should I measure?

Edit: now measured the diameter of the ball as 2 inches

Thank you so much. I was curious about the size of the hitch receiver that comes out when the car is released. That size is 2 inches, right? thank you so much bro!

Ah, I've measured the diameter of the hitch ball, not the receiver. Mine arrived from the factory with everything attached so will have to check again in the daylight tomorrow.
