When we installed the etrailer.com Trailer Hitch Receiver part # E98843 on a 2018 Kia Sorento we found that the distance from the ground to the bottom of the receiver tube opening is around 11". We have not yet had a chance to install this hitch on a 2019 Kia Sorento but the above should give you a good idea of what your clearance will be. It will however vary depending on tire size and the amount of cargo but not by much.

If you need more than 11" we do offer the Draw-Tite Max-Frame Trailer Hitch Receiver part # 75908 which will give you around 11-3/4" of clearance from the ground to the bottom of the receiver tube opening. I have attached install videos on both options for you as well.
