Does Curt Hitch part # C13271 Fit 2016 Fiat 500X Trekking

Question:

Hey Erik, that's a really good point. The install we did for the Curt hitch part # C13271 was on a Trekking model like you notices so yes it would fit. It probably wasn't noticed because of the lack of a Trekking badge on the vehicle. The Trekking models have the satin silver cladding on the front and rear bumpers like what you can see in the attached install picture.
