Since the trailer hitch receivers for your 2017 Subaru Impreza including the Draw-Tite Sportframe Trailer Hitch Receiver - Custom Fit - Class I - 1-1/4" # DT24959 you were looking at all have a tongue weight rating of 200lbs, you will need to make sure that the weight of the cargo carrier you use and the scooter does not exceed 200lbs.

Keep in mind that the # DT24959 is only confirmed to fit the 5-door wagon models with single exhaust, if you have a sedan I recommend the # 24960 instead.

For a light weight cargo carrier I recommend the 19x47 Curt Cargo Carrier for 1-1/4" and 2" Hitches - Steel - 300 lbs # C18110 as it only weighs 30lbs, leaving you 170lbs for the weight of your scooter.

I included videos of the products mentioned for you to take a look at.

There are several choices available, but the correct hitch for you will depend on how concealed you'd like the hitch to be. For a 5 door wagon (single exhaust-equipped models only), you can go with a 2 inch receiver, which I'd recommend.…

For your 2016 Subaru Crosstrek, the EcoHitch Invisi Trailer Hitch Receiver - Custom Fit - Class III - 2" #306-X7203 has the best ground clearance and only fits vehicles with the center knock-out panel in the bumper. The next best ground…

While there is a hitch that will fit your 2015 Subaru Impreza hatchback with a single exhaust, the EcoHitch Invisi Trailer Hitch Receiver #306-X7211 will only work if you have the knock-out panel in the center of the rear fascia (bumper). Since you…

I may have another option for you, but the EcoHitch Stealth Trailer Hitch Receiver - Custom Fit - 2" #306-X7261 you were looking at will only fit the 2008-2011 Subaru Impreza 5-door Wagon with the Quad Exhaust and will not work on your Impreza…

The Curt Class I Trailer Hitch Recevier #C11286 is confirmed to fit your 2014 Subaru Impreza Wagon. Also, Curt requires the use of a support strap, part #18050, for non-trailer loads like bike racks when using this hitch. If you do not use the strap…

We carry one 2 inch trailer hitch receiver to fit your 2015 Subaru Impreza, the EcoHitch, part #306-X7211. However, it only fits if your vehicle has the knock out panel on the rear bumper. If your Impreza doesn't have a knock out panel then…

We have hitch fits for your 2017 Subaru Impreza but the Hidden Hitch 90092 you referenced does not fit your vehicle as it was designed for much older Ford cars. Instead the most hidden option we have for your vehicle is the EcoHitch part #306-X7350…

Answer 9

If your 2013 Subaru XV Crosstrek has the Subaru factory 1-1/4 inch trailer hitch I do not recommend the Chinook bike rack #S64683. The reason is that the hitch pin hole is very close to the end of the receiver on that hitch and not enough of the bike…

Answer 11

Some of the same trailer hitch receivers for the 2014 Subaru Impreza fit the 2015 models. It depends on the specific model of Impreza because there was a larger vareity in 2014. For your Sport Limited I recommend the Draw-Tite Sportframe, part…

Answer 12

I'm afraid your husband is correct to be concerned. The trailer hitch receivers we carry for your Impreza, like the Draw-Tite #DT24959, are all Class I hitches and will need an expander to fit the Yakima HoldUp for 2 Inch Hitch Receivers #Y02443.…
