Yes, similar. Sorta.

The ones on the side of the car are where the jack goes, and there are more
under the car in essentially the same place that are used to hold the car to
the deck of the flat bed truck if you need to have the car hauled somewhere
for service.

Do not allow the tow truck operator to leave the winch cable tight on these
points while the tow truck is under way, especially if the tires are used
as the anchor points for the straps. The suspension can allow the car to
move about on the tow truck, and if the cable is tight on the eyelets, then
the bumper can be twisted and yanked downward. Ask me how I know.
