For your 2024 Kia Sportage I recommend the etrailer # e38KR. This Class III hitch has a 2" receiver, hidden cross tube, and a bolt-on installation. What really sets it apart from others is the matte black powder coat finish. This gives is a nice OEM look while helping to hide dirt and scratches.
Then for wiring, you need the Curt T-Connector Vehicle Wiring Harness # C99DR. This plugs into the connection points behind your tail lights. Once installed, you will have a 4-way to power your trailer's signal lights.
For a complete setup you will also need a ball mount. Check out the etrailer Ball Mount Kit # 989900. This kit has two ball mounts, one with a 3/4" rise or 2" drop and the other with a 2-3/4" rise or 4" drop. It also comes with a 1-7/8" and 2" ball, as well as a ball mount bag to store everything in.
I have attached some installation videos below for your reference.
