Hi everyone, I've been trying to weed through the forum but haven't found anything definitive yet. Has anyone had any luck with options for a trailer hitch for the Discovery Sport (2016) with 3rd row seating? Thanks much to any thoughts.

No luck still. It looks like a couple of people have made the Curt hitch work, but I can't really get much in the way of verifying it. How about you? Any luck?

That hitch works on the 5+2 with underhung spare. I just installed the TowTrust TLAN-6VK on mine and used this video as a guide, and you can clearly see the third row seating folded down when he's lifting the rear, and the spare and mufflers are the same as mine. The only caveat is the attachment method Curt uses sucks big time. I know the vehicle isn't rated for it anyways but they claim its good for 7000 lbs and 700 lbs of hitch weight, all on the same 3 bolts into sheetmetal the crash bumper uses, its scary.

Does anyone know of an option besides Land Rover for this 5+2 hitch in the US? Curt has discontinued the C13247…
I'm interested in this as well but for 2020MY+. I got a quote for $2200 parts + $2400 install from the dealer for the OEM tow package (VPCLT0290 plus the other components) which is absurd.
