Ground Clearance Of Hitch On 2021 Kia Seltos Compared to Kia Soul
Updated 04/11/2020 | Published 04/10/2020 >
Question:
What is the clearance from the ground for the C65FR after installation. I previously had a hitch on a 2013 Kia Soul, and found it to close to low close to the road surface.

We have not yet had a chance to install a hitch on a 2021 Kia Seltos, specifically the Curt Trailer Hitch Receiver part # C65FR so I do not know specific ground clearance measurements. However, you will not have the same clearance issues you had with the Kia Soul with the Curt trailer hitch on a Seltos. The Seltos has about a 1-1/2" more ground clearance in the back compared to a Kia Soul. The Curt hitch also sits flush with the bumper and does not hang down. I have attached an installation photo from Curt on a Seltos.
