Question:

Hello, I want to purchase this hitch, but it seems that the preparation under the car its different configuration, the holes are by the side of the unibody they already had the bolt tread and the picture of the hitch are from below, having to drill both holes IT look like more like the design of the 2006-2011 Kia Rio 5 Ill try to upload photos Regards

There is a note in the instructions for Draw-Tite trailer hitch # 24884 that states:

Note: Different configurations due to differences in tie down hooks on each make/model.
Note: Due to different configuration of the vehicles there could be extra spacers, item 7 not used.

I have included a link to the instructions for you to look over. I have also linked a video showing installation on another vehicle the hitch fits but it is likely going to be different than your 2018.
