Towbar for 2020 MG ZS EV?

Hi all, on the verge of upgrading from my 2018 MG ZS petrol to a 2020 Mg ZS EV. Currently have a Witter towbar fitted and was hoping to remove and refit to the EV for bike rack purposes only, not towing.
Have read several articles saying the EV is not type rated, and others saying it is acceptable to fit a towbar for cycle rack purposes only.
Hoping for clarification from anyone who has fitted a towbar to a non face-lift MG ZS EV, firstly if its physically possible, and secondly if it's legal?
Kind regards

Can't say whether it would fit (but it would make sense that it would given it's unlikely the rear frame as any different).

On the legality - it's probably more a question of insurance. If you get into a smash and the insurance company start digging it's probably first in the list of things that would be used to deny a claim.
