Yes, the Draw Tite hitch part # 24880 that you referenced is a confirmed fit for your 2016 Volkswagen Passat SEL with the Technology package. However, the hitch will interfere with the Hands-free Trunk option and functionality may be very limited or possibly lost.

This is also true for the other hitches available for your Passat, the Curt # C11234 and EcoHitch # 306-X7317.
