Expert Reply:

Both the Draw Tite hitch part # 24920 and the Curt part # C11406 are great hitch options for your 2017 Honda Fit. The only real difference that you'd notice between the two is how far the hitch sticks out relative to the rear bumper. The Draw Tite has 3 inches from the pin hole of the hitch to the outside of the bumper and the Curt Has 1/2 inch so it would stick out a bit more.

If it was my choice I would go with the Draw Tite since the hitch will be recessed enough that it's out of the way and plain sight but not far enough to make fitting a bike rack difficult.
