Expert Reply:
The Curt Class I Receiver Hitch, # C11286, will fit your 2012 Subaru Impreza Hatchback Premium edition.
If you were planning on using the receiver as a mounting point for a bike rack or cargo carrier, be aware that Curt requires the use of a stabilizing strap like part # 18050.
If you were planning on using the receiver for towing, you might also need the following:
Wiring Harness # C56111 for WRX and STi hatchback models only
Wiring Harness # 118573 for non WRX and WRX STi models
1-7/8 inch ball # A-80
2 inch ball # A-82
