Question:

I have the Optima 2013 HYBRID. I note most harnesses state not for use on Hybrid models. But this one has no mention. Can I use it on my Hybrid ? Thanks

Hello Mark,

Yes, you can use the Hopkins Plug-In Simple Vehicle Wiring Harness with 4-Pole Flat Trailer Connector # HM11143905 on your 2013 Kia Optima Hybrid.

What are you looking to tow, or what hitch mounted accessory? Do you have the other towing components?

Hey Mark, did you have a chance to try the wiring harness on your Optima Hybrid? I'm curious to know how it worked for you, as it could help others looking to tow with a hybrid.
