I took a look at the online version of the owner's manual for your 2020 Chevy Spark and it says the automatic transmission cannot be flat towed with all four wheels on the ground. Only the manual transmission model can be towed in this manner.
To pull your Spark behind the RV you will need to use a tow dolly like the excellent Demco Kar Kaddy SS # DM9713045. This will support the front wheels of your vehicle and leave the rear wheels on the ground for travel. It features a hydraulic braking system so you don't need to add a brake controller to the RV and the necessary safety chains are included. I have attached a short video review that you can check out as well.
Before going any further though I do recommend verifying the above information in your copy of the owner's manual just in case there is additional information.
