Expert Answers about Kia


  • Could Roadmaster High Low Adapter # RM-076 Be Used with Scooter Carrier
  • As long as the weight of your carrier and chair is less than 200 lbs the Roadmaster Drop Adapter part # RM-076 will work well for you as it gives you the drop you need. It also cuts the capacity of your hitch by 50 percent but since it's a truck that shouldn't be a problem.

  • What is the Weight of the Swagman titan Bike Rack?
  • The Swagman titan 2-Bike Rack, # S63400, checks in at 32 lbs. If you do not want to take the rack on and off each time you have the urge to go biking, you could leave it on and still have access to your 2014 Kia Sedona's rear cargo area using its tilting feature. The Titan features anti-sway cradles which are going to prevent contact from one bike to another, has a weight capacity of 70 lbs, and can be used in either 1-1/4-inch or 2-inch hitch receivers. You may also need a bike adapter...

  • Tongue Weight and Towing Capacity of 2020 Kia Telluride
  • Those are really good questions so I took a look at the owner's manual of a 2020 Kia Telluride and it does state that the towing capacity is 5,000 lbs (if the trailer has brakes) and the tongue weight capacity is 351 lbs (which is oddly specific). That figure is for the vehicle, so no matter what trailer hitch you put on it, the maximum tongue weight for a '20 Telluride is 351 lbs because you always need to go by the lowest-rated component when towing. The Curt Trailer Hitch Receiver...

  • Recommended Class III Hitch for a 2023 Kia Telluride
  • To add a hitch with a 2" receiver to your 2023 Kia Telluride you will want the etrailer Hitch item # e45ZR. This hitch is custom fit and bolts to your Kia with included hardware. I really like this hitch because the cross tube mounts behind your rear bumper cover leaving only the 2" x 2" receiver visible. This is a class III hitch with a 2" receiver it weighs 46 lbs. It has a 5,000 lbs towing capacity, and a 500 lbs maximum tongue weight. This can be increased to 6,000 lbs when used with...

  • Distance from Curt Trailer Hitch Receiver to Rear of Bumper on 2022 Kia Seltos
  • The center of the hitch pin hole to the rear of the bumper on the Curt Trailer Hitch Receiver - Custom Fit - Class I - 1-1/4" # C65FR is 8". If this does not provide you with enough clearance, and your bike rack can also fit a 2" hitch, you may be able to use an extender like the # D189 assuming your bike rack permits the use of an extender. The only problem with this solution would be the reduction of the capacity of the hitch. Use of an extender will reduce the capacity by 50%, so your...

I have attached the installation instructions and you can use them for a reference where you would...

  • Can I Tow a U-Haul Trailer with My 2017 Kia Soul
  • Since the Class I Curt Trailer Hitch Receiver # C11419 for your 2017 Kia Soul can tow up to 2,000 lbs it will be able to handle the weight of either trailer, but the 1,650 lbs and 1,800 lbs weight ratings you're seeing is the max amount of cargo each trailer can hold. When you add the weight of the trailer into the mix you're then looking at 2,500 lbs for the 4x8 and 2,700 lbs for the 5x8. As long as you stay under the 2,000 lb weight capacity of the Curt hitch you'll be fine. This means...

  • Recommended Hitch for a 2023 Kia Carnival
  • To add a 2" hitch to your 2023 Kia Carnival, I recommend the Curt Trailer Hitch item # C67ER. This hitch is custom fit and bolts to your Kia with included hardware. It is a class III hitch with a 2" receiver so it will be compatible with your current bike rack. Since you are planning on towing you will also need a wiring harness and a ball mount kit item # C45534. There are two options for wiring harnesses depending on whether or not your Carnival has the factory towing package. I have...

  • Recommended Hitch for a 2023 Kia Sorento
  • To add a 2" hitch to your 2023 Kia Sorento, I recommend the Curt Trailer Hitch item # C34ER. This hitch is custom fit and bolts to your Kia with included hardware. I really like this hitch because the crosstube is completely concealed behind the rear bumper. This leaves only the 2" receiver exposed, which not only helps with ground clearance but it also looks better. I have attached a couple of pictures below, along with an installation video, so you can see what this hitch will look like...

  • Recommended 7-Way Connector for a 2015 Kia Sportage

  • The best roof rack for your 2016 Kia Soul with a panoramic sunroof is a Thule roof rack because it gives your Soul a rack that is highly functional with a refined look. This rack uses the fixed mounting points on your flush factory rails which is why it is going to be compatible with your panoramic sunroof.

  • What is the Weight or Load Capacity of the 48x32 Cargo Carrier
  • The Pro Series 48x32 cargo carrier can hold up to 400 pounds. The carrier itself weighs about 105 pounds including the ramp. This would yield a total tongue weight of 505 pounds. The hitch that you had previously purchased has a tongue weight capacity of 350 pounds. I would make sure that whatever load you are putting on the carrier is 245 pounds or less to ensure you are within the limit of the hitch. Check your vehicle owner manual. If the tongue weight capacity of the vehicle is less...

  • Why Is The Curt C13420 Hitch Weight Rating Higher Than My 2022 Kia Telluride Can Handle?
  • I will start by saying that you should always go with the lowest rated component you are using for the maximum capacity you can handle. I know that sounds kind of odd, but as your 2022 Kia Telluride is rated to 500 pounds of maximum tongue weight capacity, this does mean the Curt # C13420 will be limited to this amount as well. So do not exceed that you found in your owner's manual. Hitches are almost always rated higher than the vehicle can handle as they are tested to pretty extreme...
