How Far From The Ground Does The Curt Trailer Hitch Sit On a 2018 Buick Regal TourX?

Question

Question:

Is this hitch higher up than the GM version? I purchased a hitch from GM, and it bottoms out a bit. Is there a hitch that sits higher up?

When we installed the Curt Trailer Hitch Receiver # C12173 on a 2018 Buick Regal TourX in our shop we found it to have a ground clearance of approximately 9". You can compare this with what you have on your factory hitch as we do not have that information. This is currently our only receiver for your Regal.
