The Draw-Tite Trailer Hitch item # 36600 will definitely fit your 2023 Kia Niro. This hitch is custom fit and bolts to your Kia with included hardware. It will not fit the hybrid and EV models.

I really like this hitch because it tucks in right below your rear trim. The Draw-Tite Trailer Hitch item # 36600 a class I hitch with a 1-1/4" receiver. It has a 3,500 lbs towing capacity, and a 350 lbs maximum tongue weight.

I have linked a couple of pictures below so you can see what this hitch looks like when installed.

If you are planning on towing you will also need a wiring harness item # 118749 and the Draw-Tite Drawbar item # 3593 and then for hitch balls item # 19258 for a 2 inch ball or item # 19256 for a 1-7/8 inch ball.
