I took a look at the online owner's manual for your 2019 Hyundai Kona and you are correct that they do not recommend towing a trailer with this vehicle, even if it is the EV model. Although the word "recommend" hints that you still can, I wouldn't do so as Hyundai has tested the limits of the vehicle and they don't think it is wise to tow a trailer.
We actually do have another option for you to carry some kayaks with a roof rack. I recommend using the Thule AeroBlade roof rack to do so.... view full answer...
The best hitch option for you 2022 Hyundai Kona Electric to carry a bike rack is going to be the Draw-Tite Max-Frame Trailer Hitch Receiver # DT52GR which is a confirmed fit for the Electric Kona. This hitch has a bolt-on, no-drill installation and will be a Class 3 hitch with a 2" hitch receiver.
The bike rack that I would recommend that will work with both that hitch and your 55 lb. E-bike is the Thule EasyFold XT Bike Rack # TH903202. This bike rack is compatible with the class 3, 2"... view full answer...
The EV version of the 2019 Hyundai Kona is the fully electric version which we have the Draw-Tite Max-Fram Trailer Hitch # DT52GR. This is a class 3 hitch with a 2" receiver opening. This will give you a wide array of bike racks from which to choose. view full answer...
2 inch trailer hitches are typically only made for vehicles with higher towing capacities like trucks and SUVs. Since your 2018 Hyundai Kona is a lighter duty vehicle there are only 1-1/4 inch hitches made for it like the Curt # C11529 that you referenced. Then for trailer wiring we have the zero-splice kit # 119250KIT as a fit that I recommend that easier to install and also very reliable.
For a ball mount you'd then want the part # C45521 and for hitch balls # A-82 for a 2 inch ball... view full answer...
I hope we get a custom fit trailer wiring harness for the 2023 Hyundai Kona with LED lights soon but at this time we do not have any options aside from universal fit style harnesses like the Curt # C59236 which will require splicing into the taillight connectors for install. view full answer...
For lighter duty vehicles like the 2022 Hyunda Kona N-Line there are only 1-1/4 inch hitches available like the Curt part # C87DR. The larger 2-inch hitch size is generally only available for heavier duty vehicles like trucks and SUVs. view full answer...
I do have trunk racks that will fit your 2022 Hyundai Kona. Unfortunately, Thule does not offer any trunk bike racks compatible with your vehicle. You could go with the Saris Bones EX 2 Bike Rack - Adjustable Arms - Trunk Mount, part # SAR83FR. This is an updated version of the Saris Bones that I used to transport bikes on road trips well over 1,000 miles in total. The new version is designed to alleviate stress on your vehicle's spoiler. You will not have any issues with this bike rack... view full answer...
I suggest the Draw-Tite Max-Frame Trailer Hitch Receiver, # DT52GR. This has a receiver opening of 2" and a max tongue weight of 300 lbs. view full answer...
I do have an option for you but there are only class I trailer hitches available for a 2020 Hyundai Kona so regardless of the hitch size, the maximum number of bikes that can be carried is two which has more to do with leverage than weight. The best option would be to install the Curt Trailer Hitch Receiver part # C11529 and then a new bike rack, the Thule Helium 2 Bike Platform Rack part # TH53GC would work for any two of the bikes.
The final bike could be broken down and stored inside... view full answer...
At this time we only have universal style trailer wiring kits that fit your 2022 Hyundai Kona N-Line like the Curt # C59236 which require splicing into the factory taillight wiring. Since the vehicle has been out a while it does not seem likely that a custom fit option will be released. view full answer...
For your application I recommend going with the Curt Trailer Hitch Receiver # C11529. Attached is a photo of this hitch installed on a 2020 Hyundai Kona, as well as an installation video and the installation instructions for you to check out as well.
When using this hitch for a bike rack, like the Thule Apex XT # TH9024XT, it's important to note that Curt says to use a stabilizer strap like part # 18050 to help minimize the movement of the rack during travel. view full answer...
The correct Yakima towers to use on the bare roof of your 2019 Hyundai Kona are indeed the BaseLine Towers # Y28TR that you referenced. These are the only Yakima towers that will work on your particular vehicle. To use these with your existing round bars you will just need to add the RoundBar SL Adapter # Y03536. This kit includes all 4 of the needed adapters for each of the towers.
In addition to the towers themselves you will also need the Front Fit Kit # Y06175 and the Rear Fit Kit... view full answer...
I checked with Yakima and they do have a roof rack system available that is designed to fit your 2019 Hyundai Kona that has a completely naked roof without any side rails. For this you will just need part # Y00425 for the 50" JetStream Crossbars, # Y28TR for the BaseLine Towers that mount directly to the vehicle's bare roof, # Y06175 for the Front BaseClip Fit Kit, and # Y06131 for the Rear BaseClip Fit Kit.
This will provide you with an excellent, durable, and quiet roof rack because... view full answer...
The only avavailbe trailer hitch options for a 2022 Hyundai Kona are class I, of which I recommend the Curt Trailer Hitch Receiver part # C11529 which offers a bolt on fit with 1-1/4" opening. If you have 2" accessories you'll have no other option but to use an adapter, the Brophy Hitch Adapter part # HT5R or part # HTAD. That said, these do reduce capacity by 50% so it's best to stick with 1-1/4" bike racks on this vehicle.
I have attached a list of 1-1/4" bike rack options below. view full answer...
At one point the Seasucker Board Carrier part # 298-BX1806 that you referenced was listed as only being able to carry one board at a time but it now has been confirmed to be able to carry two at a time so this would work great for your 2020 Hyundai Kona with a naked roof. view full answer...
The Curt Class I hitch part # C87DR fits all of the N models of the 2022 Hyundai Kona including the N Line AWD models like you mentioned having. view full answer...
What that means is that if the trailer you are towing with your 2018 Hyundai Kona has brakes and you have a brake controller installed like our very popular P3 part # 90195 that can activate them you have a towing capacity of 2,600 lbs. If the trailer does not have brakes your capacity would then be 1,300 lbs. view full answer...
For your 2021 Hyundai Kona we have the standard hitch size of 1-1/4 inch available like with the Curt # C11529 but there isn't a 1-1/2 inch hitch size available as that is not a standard size that any hitch accessory is made for. Since it's so close to 1-1/4 inch I'd assume that's probably what you are looking for. view full answer...
For lighter duty vehicles like your 2021 Hyundai Kona there are only lighter duty 1-1/4 inch hitches available like the part # C11529 which do not have the weight capacity for a motorcycle carrier. With your tow vehicle best option would be a small trailer since the trailer axle carries the weight instead of the rear of the vehicle.
For trailer wiring you'd then need the part # C99KR. view full answer...
