Our European Invisible towbar for the Mercedes W166 (11.2011-09.2018) is the latest technology, slim, sleek, discreet and sophisticated.

OUR premium Invisible vertical detachable towbar system, is by far the best on the market.

After detaching the tow ball, the system is completely invisible.

The handling is comfortable and easy, and the aesthetic design of the vehicle remains intact. One of the only detachable towbar systems that becomes invisible after removal.

Benefits of the Invisible towbar system:

 Aesthetic Design

Car manufacturers invest heavily in the design of their cars.

A fixed towbar upsets the balance and symmetry of the car's original design. Our detachable towbars are the answer because they can easily be removed when not needed, leaving the line of the car as the designer intended.

  Stylish

When the swan neck towball is removed, you see nothing - the system is mounted vertically behind the bumper.  The towbar becomes completely invisible -  the lines of your car are not spoiled in the slightest.

  Quick & Easy to use

The most convenient towbar system: invisible when not in use, yet ready for use whenever needed.

Fit or remove the towball in a second without any tools and with the minimum of effort.  

Inbuilt positive locking mechanism, Audible click and visual indicators. Anti theft system.

  Safe and clean

Once removed, there is no towball to soil clothes or damage shins!   Protected by lock & key.

 Strong, robust & safe

This towbar has a powder coating. During this modern surface coating process, a plastic powder coating is permanently applied to the metal surface. The result is high durability and excellent protection against corrosion.

You are assured the highest quality towbar, designed specifically for your vehicle. Production is certified by ISO 9001:2008

Our towbars are made in Europe and have full European approval. Your towbar is certified to the highest standards (ECE 55/01) - Compliant with Australian Design Standard ADR 62/02.

Our towbars are all designed using 3D technologies and undergo computer simulations to verify any weak points and to study the dynamics of the structure when driving. Every design has to undergo a stress test of at least two million cycles.

 Easy to Fit

Simple, quick and easy installation - our towbars are OEM quality - designed to fit perfectly with your car manufacturers designated towbar mounting points. No welding, no drilling - our towbars are PERFECT FIT. NB. in some cases a small bumper/cladding cut may be required.

The team at e-towbars was great to deal with. I wasn't sure what was the right product for my car and they were very helpful in assisting with the correct product selection. The fitting of the towbar was very professional and efficient. I would have given 5 stars, but dropped a star as it took a few follow-up emails to get the installation booked in. But overall i would recommend this as an easy, hassle-free and cost-effective way to get a towbar.

I purchased a 2016 Mercedes GLE350d as a replacement for a weary 2005 Pajero. A part of the role was to tow a trailer for the odd weekend dump trip and to pull a 5.2 metre boat for some weekend getaways. After a week of tow bar research, I decided on the D 50v with vehicle specific wiring harness. I called my local Benz service specialist who then flatly refused to install this tow bar (or any tow bar) on my GLE. After driving 350ks to the next town, The Benz dealer in Rockhampton meticulously installed the D 50v on my GLE in 2.5 hours. My mind felt at ease when I first attached a trailer and received a message on my dash read out informing me that "Blind spot assist has been disabled as a trailer is connected" So the recoding worked. The invisible hitch is a great addition to any GLE, giving me the ability to tow 3500kg's without even noticing a trailer is attached. I would highly recommend this tow bar.
