I like the EcoHitch for the 2019 Kia Sorento. It's part # 306-X7320. Take a look at the picture I attached that shows how it looks on the vehicle. All you can see under the bumper is the receiver opening and none of the cross member because it's all hidden. It's really a much cleaner design than the other hitches where so much of it hangs down under the bumper.
Then for the wiring the Hopkins, part # HM11143820, is my choice. All the options use a powered converter but the Hopkins's converter box mounts with two screws where the others are only one screw or just doublesided tape. It doesn't sound like much difference but you really don't want that converter moving around at all and the two screws keeps it much more secure.
You didn't mention a ball mount but you're going to need one if you don't already have one. I've linked our selection that fits the 2 inch EcoHitch. You might consider our ball mount kit, part # 989900, that includes a couple of mounts and hitch balls of different sizes. It also includes the pin and clip which you need.
