We do have a hitch that is confirmed to fit your 2023 Kia Sorento, the etrailer Trailer Hitch # e28AR.

For wiring, I recommend the Curt T-Connector Vehicle Wiring Harness # C99DR. This plugs in behind your tail lights so no cutting or splicing is required. Once installed, you will have a 4-way to power your trailer's signal lights.
