I checked with Curt just to make sure and the Curt Trailer Hitch # C13153 is absolutely compatible with your 2019 Hyundai Santa Fe XL SE with AWD.

This will give your '19 Santa Fe a Class III, 2 inch hitch that has a concealed crosstube so only the receiver is visible, giving it high functionality but allowing your car to maintain its appearance. This hitch has a 900 lb tongue weight capacity and 6,000 lb towing capacity so it is perfect for towing or carrying a bike rack like the Saris SuperClamp EX # SA4025F.

If you do plan on towing a trailer you can use the Hopkins Plug-In Simple Vehicle Wiring Harness with 4-Pole Flat Trailer Connector # HM11143984 which will allow you to power your trailer's lights and will work so long as your Santa Fe XL does not have the factory tow package or Wiring Harness # C56332 if you do have the tow package. It is important that you use Dielectric Grease for Electrical Connectors # 11755 with either of these harnesses to help prevent any type of corrosion from building up in the connector.

I also recommend checking out Ball Mount Kit # 989900, which is for 2” hitches and may fulfill your towing needs in one tidy package; two ball mounts - one with a 3/4” rise or 2” drop and the other with a 2-3/4” rise or 4” drop – along with a 1-7/8” hitch ball, a 2” hitch ball, and a pin and clip.

You can use the link to the help article on ball mounts I've added to determine if this kit will give you the correct amount of drop or rise.
