Cargo Carrier and Trailer Hitch for 2020 Kia Soul

Updated 05/20/2020 | Published 05/14/2020

Question:

Hi again, Can this cargo carrier be used on a 2020 Kia Soul? Can it be easily taken on and off? I will want to be able to take this off with a pin and clip. Does it weigh 30lbs? The size and price is right vs #59507 21”x55 Rola cargo carrier for 1 1/4” steel 300lbs for.... Yikes!!!! Thanks for your answers.... greatly appreciated!!

First thing you need is a hitch installed on your 2020 Kia Soul so you can carry a hitch cargo carrier. For that the Curt part # C67FR that you referenced is the way to go.

Now since this is the smaller hitch size you do need a cargo carrier designed for it like the Reese part # 63155 which we had the chance to install on a 2017 Kia Soul and we found it worked great. Check out the install video link I attached on this page to see more. This and the hitch would be all you'd need!

The Rola carrier is no longer available. You could use part # 63155 in the hitch I mentioned for your 2020 Kia Soul. It weighs 44 lbs and is easily removable when not in use.

Would it be possible to make a video for 2020 Kia Soul with different carriers etc. since now the model is different!? I told Kira I would give her feedback once I get mine on and use it a bit (estimate 3 weeks or so)!!!! Thank you everyone for your assistance...you’re a good team!!!!!

Thanks for the kind words! As soon as we're able to get a 2020 Kia Soul in for a hitch install we'll definitely make some different videos. I'm really sorry we don't have them available at the moment, but please do let us know about your experience after using these components for a bit.

@ChrisR Thank you Chris! I am so impressed with etrailer’s communication and videos! I think my items will be arriving around Thurs May 18! I was going to wait to have the hitch installed at my 5,000 mile Kia Soul first maintenance check up in around 3 weeks. However, maybe I’ll just have it done locally cuz I’ll be too excited to wait!!!! I’ll definitely keep you posted through Kira. Take care and be safe
