Expert Reply:
For your 2018 Volvo XC90 the Curt hitch part # C53HR is the correct fit and the one you'd want. The other two part numbers you mentioned are not active, so they are no longer available.
For trailer wiring you'd then want the Curt # C56285 which is a confirmed custom fit that will install easily.
If you wanted to do some towing you might be interested in etrailer ball mount kit # 989900. It comes with 2 ball mounts; one with a 3/4 inch rise or 2 inch drop and one with a 2-3/4 inch rise or 4 inch drop. It also includes a 1-7/8 inch ball, 2 inch ball, hitch pin with clip, and a storage bag.
If the ball mount kit does not include a ball mount with the right rise or drop to tow the trailer level, check out the link I have included that explains how to measure to choose a ball mount to tow the trailer level.
