Tow hitches are an essential thing for me, even though I would never tow a trailer. Reason being? Bike rack on the hitch. It’s so much easier to load then on the roof, no risk of destroying anything and carrying bikes on the roof is not possible with heavy e-bikes. You don’t need a flatbed to carry 2 bikes to your destination (as you can see in the picture)
