Hi Artie,

So there isn't a trailer hitch with a standard towing capacity above 5,000 lbs for your 2024 Kia Telluride SX Prestige X-Pro. There is a trailer hitch that jumps to a 6,000 lb towing capacity when you use a weight distribution hitch there is; for that you would use the etrailer Trailer Hitch Receiver # e45ZR.

Then for the wiring, what you need for your SX model is the T-Connector Vehicle Wiring Harness with 4-Pole Flat Trailer Connector # C29ZV.

To add a 7-way you'd need the Universal Installation Kit for Trailer Brake Controller # ETBC7. You will first install the 4-flat, which will activate your trailer's lighting functions, and you'll then plug that into the 7-way that comes with the # ETBC7, which also gives you the wiring, circuit breakers, and rest of the hardware needed for installation.

Hey Artie, how did things go with the hitch and wiring setup on your Telluride? Did the combination of the etrailer hitch, 4-pole harness, and 7-way kit give you the towing capacity and connections you needed? Your update could make it easier for others working on the same SUV.
