Question:
I am looking at the Draw-Tite and the Curt hitch for my 2021 Audi SQ5 and want to know which one is more rucked under the bumper. In other words, has less projection rearward. Also, removing the rear bumper guard with the Draw-tite, do you expect might this reduce support for the plastic fascia in the event of a low speed collision?

It's only by 1/2 an inch but the Curt part # C13331 is the most recessed under the rear of the vehicle as it has 3-1/2 inches from the pin hole to the outer edge of the bumper whereas the Draw Tite # 76183 has 3 inches there. The hitch has been tested in this orientation and has proven to be safe.
