Question:
Hi, Do you have a hitch for a 2018 vw Alltrack? I’m looking for a small Class I receiver hitch for a bockrack only with no need for light connections.

We do have some trailer hitches that are confirmed to fit your 2018 Volkswagen Golf Alltrack. Out of our selection I recommend going with the Draw-Tite Sportframe Trailer Hitch Receiver # 24949 because it is set at a competitive price point and it doesn't require a support strap # 18050 like the Curt # C11422 does.
Then for a bike rack (if you don't already have one) I recommend the Kuat Beta # B202-114. This lightweight (12.6 lbs) aluminum bike rack comes fully assembled right out of the box and can accommodate up to 2 bikes that weigh 40 lbs each. The arms only sit about 8" apart which reduces the need for an adapter bar # UB01 and it features an integrated anti-wobble system to reduce rattle and sway inside the hitch receiver.
The Beta doesn't come with locks but you can add some security by using the hitch lock # HL1 and a cable lock like part # e98891. You may also be interested in the Softride Soft Hook-and-Loop Tie Downs # SR54FR to help keep your front tire from potentially damaging another bike or making contact with your vehicle.
I have linked the installation instructions for the Draw-Tite trailer hitch and a review video of the Kuat Beta for you to check out as well.
