Not sure what effect a tow hitch will have, if any, on the Comfort Access toe kick sensor. I'm willing to sacrifice that bit of convenience if I can tow a 15 foot trailer or mount a rear bike rack on my X1.

Not sure if X1's come from the factory with pre-wired electrical connections or if that's something that would need to be wired in later.

Also, I'm not sure if having an M Sport will make a difference to the eventual tow package installation, since the bumper is different from the standard model.
Hmmm weird, I really don't understand all the different regulations

Here in Europe I orderd a detachable towbar from the factory. I have a smaller engine so i can only tow 1800kg. The 2.5i and 2.5d may tow 2000kg here.

It also comes standard with Trailer Stability Assists and u can order it here on an M Sport.
