Trailer Hitch Recommendation for a 2012 Subaru Impreza Premium Hatchback

Expert Reply:

If your 2012 Subaru Impreza Premium Hatchback is a WRX or STi model, then you can use the Curt Class I Receiver Hitch, # C11120.

At this time, there are no trailer hitches that will fit the 2012 Subaru Impreza premium hatchback if it is not a WRX or STi model.

The Curt trailer hitch that you referred to, # 11317, is designed for sedan models only.

If you were planning on using the receiver as a mounting point for a bike rack or cargo carrier, be aware that Curt requires the use of a stabilizing strap like part # 18050.

If you were planning on using the receiver for towing, you might also need the following:

Wiring Harness # C56111 for WRX and STi hatchback models only
1-7/8 inch ball # A-80
2 inch ball # A-82
