Recommended Tow Wiring Harness for 2019 Kia Sorento LX V6

Updated 06/22/2020 | Published 06/19/2020

Question:

I just purchased a 2019 Kia Sorento and the dealer told me he wasnt sure if it had a tow package, but that it could tow 5000 lbs even without one. After looking through the manual, this does not appear to be the case. It is a 2019 Kia Sorento LX 6V. I took this picture of the wiring under the drivers side rear wheel based on a recommendation from you site and the wiring doesnt seem to match an image you posted of a Sorento with a towing package. I have a couple questions: 1. Can you tell if it has a towing package 2. If not, do you know if I can still tow up to 5000 lbs? Thank you

Based on your photo you do have the tow package. You will use the Curt T-Connector Vehicle Wiring Harness for Factory Tow Package - 4-Pole Flat Trailer Connector # C56332 and I've attached a video fo this installation for you.

The towing capacity of your 3.3L V6 Sorento is 3,500 lbs in FWD and 5,000 lbs in AWD.
