The Curt hitch part # C13195 that is a confirmed fit for your 2017 Kia Sorento has a list of tools needed to install the hitch in the attached installation instructions link. I attached a picture that shows this as well as the install time.

Basically you will need a ratchet, a torque wrench, socket sizes 3/4 inch, 17 mm, 14 mm, and 11/16 inch, a 10 inch socket extension, a screwdriver, and safety glasses.

I also attached an install video that covers the entire process as well.
