Hello Gilsan,

I’d be happy to make sure you get the right parts for your 2024 Kia Sportage! Here’s everything you need to tow a small trailer with a 4-flat connector:

-Hitch: Curt Trailer Hitch Receiver - Custom Fit - Class III - 2" # C94WR

-Wiring: T-One Vehicle Wiring Harness with 4-Pole Flat Trailer Connector # TK32VR – and don’t forget the Mounting Bracket # 18144 for a clean, professional-looking install.

-Ball Mount: etrailer Ball Mount w/ Pre-Torqued 2" Ball - 2" Hitch - 2" Drop - 7,500 lbs # e67DR, I really like our nickel-plated hitch ball; it gives a sleek, polished look.

That’s everything you need for basic towing. However, if you plan to tow a trailer with brakes, let me know so I can recommend the additional wiring you’ll need.

I’ve also attached some review and installation videos for you to check out. If you have any questions after watching, please ask away =)

What are you planning to tow with your Sportage?

Hey Gilsan, how did things go getting your Sportage ready for towing with the hitch and wiring setup? Your update could make it easier for others figuring out what they need for a similar trailer setup.
