Question:
Will these work with a Kia Sportage 24/25 with raised rails when the panoramic sunroof is open?

Hey Andrew, so the Yakima roof rack part # Y28UV is a fit for your 2025 Kia Sportage but you are not going to want to open the roof with the rack installed. The rack would interfere and limit it but worse than that is the amount of wind noise this would create would be super annoying.
At this time there is a bit of a delay on the Yakima rack so if you wanted something available right now we have the similar Thule flush bar rack part # TH25VG as well.

Thanks! Would the opened sunroof physically touch the rack? I'm ok with not opening the sunroof while the rack is installed, but it might happen by accident.
