Expert Reply:
The Curt Trailer hitch, part # C13195 is designed to fit your 2016 Kia Sorento. This is a Class lll hitch and has a 2 inch receiver opening.
We have not had an opportunity to install this hitch on the 2016 yet but you may be able to judge the distance with a quick measurement. The distance from the plate on the passenger side that mounts to the frame to the top of the receiver is 6 inches. I have attached the installation instructions and you can use them for a reference where you would need to measure from on your Sorento.
If you plan on doing some towing you might be interested in etrailer ball mount kit # 989900. It comes with 2 ball mounts; one with a 3/4 inch rise or 2 inch drop and one with a 2-3/4 inch rise or 4 inch drop. It also includes a 1-7/8 inch ball, 2 inch ball, hitch pin with clip, and a storage bag.
